    help with ring gear ford 8n

    I have had very good results using Loctite 640 sleeve and bearing retainer in simular instances where the fit tolerance is no longer there. The ring gear will have to be removed, parts cleaned, then reassembled for this product to properly work.

    Front rope seals

    I'm with Den N Ms here. The last rebuild on my 8N leaked at first like yours. It's been 14 years now and has not leaked since. Run it a bit and see if it stops.

    Buddy had one a few years back, acting exactly the same. Tearing it down, I found that the drive gear was spinning on the shaft. Reset the gear on the shaft with some bearing retainer and it has worked great ever since.

    Zane Thang lift adjustment Question
