    Jumping a 6V

    Chris, I did this and sent you a direct email earlier on this in part. When I used my truck to try to get the starter going it would click the starter solenoid, but that"s all. In the past with the old battery when I performed this procedure it turned the starter just fine. Today I noted a...

    800 Series Front Spindle

    All righty then.....Thanks guys. I've got enough information to confidently figure out and fix the front end issues. As it stands right now this tractor is in better shape than I can remember, except maybe when my Granddad bought it back in '64.

    800 Series Front Spindle

    Really? Interesting fix. I'll have to give it a try. My right front is spitting parts of rubber left and right and all over the place. When I swap it out for a new one I'll do that, see what happens. I'll keep you posted.

    800 Series Front Spindle

    Ford 820 Electrical

    Thanks guys. I presume it's the electrical system "leaking" also. The battery holds a charge when disconnected. It also does not discharge when used, but it doesn't seem to charge from the generator either. I'll do a search for "not charging" and see what recent items are available to try...

    Ford 820 Electrical

    My system does not seem to be charging. The generator is ginnin' and the regulator seems to work properly. I have yet to verify all settings, cut in and out points, etc. When it sits for a few days the battery is fully discharged and it's fairly new. I can charge the battery and the tractor...

    820 Hydraulics

    Checking the Forum for Hydraulics I'm not finding solutions for my tractor. Tractor engine rebuilt 2005, hydraulics worked on and rebuilt 2006 by local shop, and this is a working tractor, not truly a restoration, but it's in process. Last time I used the tractor it acted odd. The fluid level...

My 820 is finally running...
