    International Cub 1969 sn: 233797 J-Installing a water temp gauge-- input request

    grandpa Love: Kevinwterry posted a pic above showing they welded a threaded bushing on the casting for a port. You just drilled and taped directly into the side of the CI tube? If that worked IMO, a much simpler approach.

    International Cub 1969 sn: 233797 J-Installing a water temp gauge-- input request

    Thanks guys for your replies! So we considered both locations for the temp probe (above and below the radiator), i suppose the logic is "it's better to know the worst case temp that the engine is experiencing so corrective action can prevent damage? For example on the older cars that could...

    International Cub 1969 sn: 233797 J-Installing a water temp gauge-- input request

    I am helping a friend who wants to install a water temp gauge in the lower casting 'manifold' circular boss (see attached pic) on his International Cub. The plan is to drill and tap the circular boss to accommodate a capillary tube water temp gauge into that port that we will machine. Have any...

    Help with JD TSX904 carburetor Zenith Style replacement- how to change linkage sides?

    Thanks for your reply. Your description of linkage side change is as i imagine it also, but i don't want to get into the carb. based on what i THINK is the way to switch the linkage sides and then get stuck w/ a carb i cannot return. That ASAP would sell a new carb. with it's description...

    JD 1020 gas w/ 48 loader exhaust heat shield?

    ss55 thanks for your reply. as this tractor is used in our pecan orchard a vertical exhaust would present a whole new set of problems, due to the low hanging branches would do bad things to the pipe. Good to hear that the 1020 is a long lived tractor! I think unless some shielding method is...

    JD 1020 gas w/ 48 loader exhaust heat shield?

    Hello J-D experts, After disking part of our pecan orchard with my subject tractor, and with it being a hot day the heat that my left ankle is 'blasted' with seems like some sort of shield could help reduce the heat transfer to the surrounding tractor parts that shouldn't get that hot. My temp...

    1020 Front spindle Snapped!

    Jim, Great advice! That's one of the wonderful advantages of having access to guys have been there and done THAT. Very good to know that taking the knee off is not a good idea as there are much easier ways to do. Will explore the options you have provided other than the knee removal. THANKS! Dennis

    1020 Front spindle Snapped!

    Thanks to Jim.me and Fixing Farmer for you helpful replies! Of course, big oversight on my part on no need to remove the arm from the tie rod. However, since the arm was welded to the top of the king pin, I am concerned that the keyway(s) in either the arm of the king pin (or both) are messed...

    Finally, back working on my 1020 broken spindle, after the death of my dear friend and neighbor.
