    8N10000 generator 8N10505 A or B regulator?

    I want to thank everybody who responded to me about my 8N breaking down when increasing the throttle. As you guys thought from the beginning, it was electrical and it was the coil. Bought another coil, put it on and it started right up and is running fine. Thank you again, this has been a...

    8N10000 generator 8N10505 A or B regulator?

    Ok, I found out today when I ran the tractor over to a friends house that the problem still exists. It was running fine at first and every other time I had started it up with the gas idea. I think my idea that it was running out of gas was wishful thinking. It sort of didn't make sense, but the...

    Supertech Tractor Hydraulic Transmission

    This message is a reply to an archived post by TheOldHokie on August 12, 2022 at 12:49:49. The original subject was Re: Supertech Tractor Hydraulic Transmission. It talks about a high quality additive system. Doesn't this usually mean something in the oil that will potentially harm yellow...

    8N steering box adjustment

    Thanks a lot Tim for all the references and the great pictures. Im using the FO-4 and one of the early service manual. The FO-4 says to adjust until the backlash is removed and then it says to overhaul the unit if excess backlash still remains, but it doesnt define excess. With the new shaft...

    8N steering box adjustment

    That is a good question about new and old parts. Hadnt thought about that. Ive decided to try straightening the old shaft. Hopefully I wont have to go through too many attempts to get it reasonably close so I dont have to keep installing and reinstalling to check it. Thanks for your...

    8N steering box adjustment

    Thanks a lot wore out. Thats what Im thinking about. I have never straightened a shaft before, however I do have a press and have watched a couple of videos, so I might try it. Does it sound to you that there might be something wrong with the new shaft? Thanks again for your response.

    8N steering box adjustment

    I am new here and I hope I am doing this right. I couldn't figure out how to search the archives, so I will just ask my question. I have a 1948 8N. I am rebuilding the steering gearbox. It's the gearbox that has the sector shaft housings that you rotate to take out the backlash. I replaced and...

    8N Transmission Bearings

    Hi everyone. I am replacing the bearings in my 8N transmission and I would like to be sure I get good bearings, not cheap unmarked off-brand. Prices are all over the place on the internet. Does anybody have any suggestions where to get a good brand for a reasonable price? Thanks for any help...

    Bubba strikes again

    I bought an 8N 9/16? gear oil pump rebuild kit from Yesterday?s and it came in the same see-thru package as the one TOH showed in his picture with parts rattling around. The drive gear shaft was all knicked up. Wasn?t usable like that. They cheerfully sent me another one right away no-...
