    8N Transmission slips out of gear

    mine slips out of first gear, but all other gears are good. would this spring cause my concern? maybe i can get away with an easy fix. i have not looked into it to see what is messed up.

    1966 FORD 3000 Gas throttle question

    finding parts for the old N series is MUCH easier than this 3000. to buy the friction washer for the throttle i would have to buy a pack of five. so i found a dealer way up in New York that had them in stock, bought one from them. found the misc clips on Ebay for the throttle rods, bought...

    1966 FORD 3000 Gas throttle question

    no worries, i just put my computer on its side and the pics looked just fine. the spring does seem to be about the same as mine in size and thickness.

    1966 FORD 3000 Gas throttle question

    for that price, i think i will find a comparable spring local. i am not about to pay 50 bucks for a spring. it better be a space shuttle spring for that kind of dough. i think the friction disc is gone, and they used a bigger spring to compensate so the throttle would stay i one spot

    1966 FORD 3000 Gas throttle question

    Here are the pictures. The large spring is the one I am not sure about. And you can barely see the bolt behind the spring that is loose with the wallowed out hole.

    8N Fender Skin Attachment Bolts

    i would think carriage bolts would do the trick, look more original than bolts

    1966 FORD 3000 Gas throttle question

    i took a look at the New Holland parts site, and it seems one of the springs i have is not original, its a very large heavy duty spring. could be the wear on my pivoting arm is coming from with such a high tension spring. i am guessing, maybe the friction discs are worn out, if i take that odd...

    1966 FORD 3000 Gas throttle question

    i bought a decent 3000 over the weekend, has some wear and tear but seems like a solid machine, except for needing rear tires pretty dang soon. i am making a list of things that need attention before i stick it down in the woods on bush hog duty for the foreseeable future clearing my home site...
