    Ford 851 input shaft seal

    Thanks for your help. Yup- this worked out well. Relaced to two seals from the CR seals sold at Napa. Worked great. Lubed the needle bearings and the internal bushing and shed all back together. Thanks for your help!

    Hydraulic pump gear 861 Diesel

    Interesting. I split er apart and removed the clutch, flywheel, cover and hydraulic pump gear. Everything was tight and cleaned the faces. But the gear face where it clamps to the cam is not ground in the same plane as the gear face. So it wobbles about a 1/4”. I drove this tractor this way for...

    Hydraulic pump gear 861 Diesel

    Question for you all. Has anyone seen the hydraulic pump drive gear, (the one on the end of the camshaft) be bent? Mine has about a1/4” wobble as the engine cranks (pump off). I put it on and was able to check the cap screws- all are tight. I didn’t notice the wobble till I got the engine in and...

    Ford 851 input shaft seal

    Hi all, I’d appreciate any help you all can provide. I have a Ford 861 with a dual clutch (5 speed, of course). I have the engine out and fixing the cross shaft and throw out bearing, but I’m thinking I should replace the input shaft seal. I see where I can remove the housing, and I think the...

    Ford 861 throw out bearing cross shaft bushing

    Working on my Ford 861 Diesel- the cross shaft that rotates the throw out bearing - those bushings in the bell housing are shot. It s a 5 speed with a dual clutch. The shaft is 0.990 diameter and the bushing look like about a 1/16" wall ( probably 1" ID, 1 1/8 OD), about an inch long. Does...

    Ford 861 injector pump o-ring

    Does anyone know the "dash" number for the oring at the bottom of the injector pump. Mine got pinched and is cut ( must have swelled some). I have a kit now but trying to guess the right size isn t working.

    Ford 861 diesel neutral safety switch

    Yes- unfortunately it s been sitting for 35 years out in the rain. Everything is froze up. But I tapped it few times on the button and I finally got it to move. I ll check it for continuity. Maybe it will still work! Thanks for the help.

    Ford 861 diesel neutral safety switch

    I need to replace the neutral switch. Can I take the top off the transmission? I m thinking the top will come off and the forks will disengage. But my books said I have to remove the trans and pull out the drive gears. I m thinking that s not right, that switch should be a fairly serviceable...

    861 Diesel fuel filter

    Hi all, Looking for a diesel fuel filter for my 58 Ford 861D. I ordered one online but I got a new holland 86546599. This new one has holes out the top (& bottom)and two larger orings. Looks like the OD is the same, but the ID of the bottom doesn t sit right on the base. My old filter is...

    Ford 861 diesel kit-reliance kit

    That is exactly how my piston looked. Rod cap was on backward (maybe the whole rod). Also spun #4 rod bearing. I think that s what finally stopped the old girl. Just wondering, did you check piston clearance and/or did you hone the liners? Or are they just meant to use as is? New pistons look...

    Ford 861 diesel kit-reliance kit

    Hi all, Does anyone have experience with the 172 diesel overhaul kit from Reliance? It has Trac-pro pistons and new sleeves. I pressed the sleeves and checked the piston fit. The sleeves look like they are cross-hatched and ready to go. I measured the clearance and found about .002"-.003"...
