    641 broken gear

    That’s fantastic. I thought about using my cherry picker for the middle, but that stand is WAY more controlled! I have an engine hoist at the front of my shop to hold up the front of the tractor, and a floor jack for the back. Thanks for the idea!

    641 broken gear

    Thank you Sir. I was afraid that would be the case, but I knew the membership here has much more knowledge than I. I was hoping after the engine rebuild, hydraulic overhaul and paint that I was done!

    641 broken gear

    My 641 with a 4 speed transmission has a broken gear. I’m not sure if anything is broken on the bottom shaft, but I didn’t see any pieces that I could contribute to the bottom. Is there a way to remove the top shaft and peek below without performing the dreaded double split? I have a manual, but...

    Effective But Cheap Way To Smooth Plowed Field

    We used a homemade drag about 6 feet long to smooth softball infields. It was made from chain link fence with rebar run thru it sideways and wired in place. It did a great job for already smoothish ground. I’d think you would be satisfied with a similar drag used after harrowing the ground.

    I got one last night for the first time in awhile. I was searching fuel lines for a 601.

    Ford 601 steering box lubrication

    I made the decision to lubricate my 601 steering box with John Deer Corn Head Grease. It seems to make more sense using a lightweight self leveling grease than heavy oil. The problem was figuring out how to get grease into the fill hole. I went thru my assortment of grease zerks and found one...

    I am getting a forbidden 403 error when i try to go on to YT

    I can’t reproduce the error today, but it was doing it over the weekend with $400 worth of parts in my cart. Maybe it’s been fixed or the computer gremlins got drowned in hydraulic fluid.

    It’s only on the YT full sight. No problems on the forums.

    I am getting a forbidden 403 error when i try to go on to YT

    I’m getting the same. I had to open a new window to add parts to my cart last night, but it worked and I was able to checkout.

    poor dealer service

    The old model of flat-rate to pay techs may have been fine before cars and machinery became highly computerized, but diagnosing highly complex computer-electrical systems and getting ripped by manufactures cutting warranty pay caused many if not most to find new careers back around 2008. I’m not...

    Ford 601 134 engine valve adjustment

    I soaked the head and rockers in oil for a few months after finding a whole bunch of rust locking cylinders 2@3 from sitting. When I turned one last night trying to make sure they wern’t rust welded together like the rings were into the sleeves, it took a pretty good twist. I appreciate the...

    Ford 601 134 engine valve adjustment

    Many thanks for the input and reassurance! I was wondering why mine was different than every Jubilee and 601 that I’ve seen on the “tubes”.

    Ford 601 134 engine valve adjustment

    I’m working on a 1957 601 with a 134 engine. I’ve been busy relining my cylinders, replacing the valves, installing new pistons and rings, replacing rod bearings and was getting ready to adjust the valves last night. I noticed that the normal manner of adjustment won’t work, as it looks like the...
