    My Battery is draining on 8n -- Wiring correction maybe?

    the diagram you show shows a 12 volt conversion with a negative ground! Is that what you have?

    Just a word of thanks!

    Bill There is a lot of good information on this forum. It has helped me a bunch on my N!

    Just a word of thanks!

    Hi guys I got my axle with new bearing back in my 49 8N today. I know I didn't post questions about this job, but I read many other discussions on setting the preload on the bearing. Thanks to you guys here on the forum, and John Smith's how to article. The job went off without a hitch. She has...

    I think I have found something new!

    Well I won't be going back together today! Once I got everything apart, got some good light on the bearing and cup, I decided to put a new bearing in the old girl. With what little I do with a tractor, I may could have packed it and it last for many more years. I just refuse to put something...

    I think I have found something new!

    "because of a worn axle and hub that goes on to far." Den n Ms when I read the worn axle and hub it had me worried a little about the axle. I know the axle is made of harder metal than the hub Per John Smiths how to article. I had to walk out to the shop and check the hubs on the axle, and...

    I think I have found something new!

    "Demaxx,That is a farmer fix to stop the brake drum from rubbing on the brake backing plate,because of a worn axle and hub that goes on to far." That is good to know! I am putting a new hub and seal on it now. It has new brakes and they are clean and dry. Hopefully what I am doing will take...

    I think I have found something new!

    Unless this is some type of old time fix for a 8N rear seal I don't think that plastic someone has cut out and put between the hub and brake drun isn't suppose to be there!

    FORD 9N Governor issues?

    Bruce(VA) I can only speak from my experience on "NEW" governors. They are junk! I purchased one for my 8N, and after a week of me trying to adjust it every way that manual said adding and removing shims, adjusting the spring. Then doing ever unorthodox adjustment I could find on here. I even...

    Rear tractor tire size

    I have the original 28 inch rims. I was priced $560.00 for 2 mounted, 11.2-28s. I have checked around that has been the best price so far.My tires on the tractor have dry rot. but still have decent tread. I am going to hold off and get all the servicing and mechanical up to par first.

    OT - AC 134a Oil

    What Den N Ms said those pancake compressors were notorious for leaking out the front shaft seal. PAG 150 is correct, from my NAPA experience. You can buy a pretty cheap UV leak testing light from Harbor Freight I think. Then you will know here the leak is. I have an old 99 Chevy van. I actually...

    I had one of those moments today!

    I was slowly idling down to the bank I was going to knock down today with my box blade, and the tractor just died. It turned over and wouldn't start. I first thought I may have flooded it! I had the gas valve opened about 3 turns and I was just poking around at a idle. I took the plugs out and...

    Rear axle shims

    I have already done that. It worked for a few days then started leaking again. Which leads me to believe that the axle splines may be loose in the hub.I am going to inspect it a little closer this time. I was in a bit of a hurry! I had gravel being delivered the next day.If it is the hub it...
