    MM BG or BF drive shaft

    Glad it really worked. While a hour and a half sounds long to slip a universal on a shaft, you would have spent twice that pulling the torque tube and reassembling. Dan

    MM BG or BF drive shaft

    Yes, I gave you the part numbers. The bell housing and entire clutch assembly can be removed via rear after everything is cleared out of the way and you follow the book. Before you remove the torque tube, try this dreamed idea. Clean and lube the splined clutch shaft. Using wood blocks...

    MM BG or BF drive shaft

    Merry day after Christmas and I trust my comments will be of some help. I replaced universal joints, clutch, throw out bearing, and trans seal on my BF project several months ago. It's a real fun project best accomplished by someone with small strong fingers and good eye sight. According to...

    BF and BG drive shaft universal joints

    Back in May I had my BF shaft out. You guys' suggested NAPA who used an old paper book and ordered SKS part UJ870 @ $55 each. The UJ870's are needle bearing with zerk. Installation was not easy because new parts were .002 - .003 larger in diameter. Using a round file and emery I was able to...

    MM Bf Propeller Shaft universal joint repair.

    Visited local NAPA store yesterday morning. Mike pulled out an old 2012 paper catalog, entered number on computer, said Minneapolis, Mn. has 2, and they will be here Tuesday morning. Good deal. I trust they work. Little pricey at $50 each but I'm happy I found them. If they work I'll send...

    MM Bf Propeller Shaft universal joint repair.

    I'm a late middle age retired farmer of many years (who remembers when the 1951 BF hit MM dealers show rooms) restoring a 1951 BF. Have the tractor split, removed Propeller shaft, and learned universal joints are real bad. Tried to get universal repair kit from local supplier. Joints are odd...

    color of carburator

    The Carbs on both my 1937 ZTU and 1939 RTU are unpainted. Both tractors were sold without electric. My dad added starter and lights to the R in 1944 and to the Z in 1951. I remember both events. The starters and generators are Delco black. The Magnetos were also unpainted. Last week I...

    Where was the Minneapolis Moline Dealer in Dayton Ohio?

    Blessings Garage was at Stringtown,Ohio,1.5 miles North of Trotwood on Union Rd. at Shiloh Springs Rd. Glenn Blessing started the business in the late 1920's or early 1930's. In 1937[my birth year] my father Henry Croy was selling MM tractors part time for Glenn receiving $50 for each unit...
