    404 IH 1963 Starts but quickly die

    I checked the wire going into coil and out, 12v in and 6v out. I gave it more throttle and it started and kept running. Not sure what happened but it is running fine now. What could have happen which I am embarrased to say, when I was jerking the tractor hard the throttle could have moved up to...

    Remove rear axle hub

    Update: I received a manual today from Binder Books. Is shows pressing the axle assy out (bolt spreader), pressing the Hub off. Change the seal. Then press the hub back on the axle then press axle assy back into the tractor. I will rethink this project, I may just keep putting in oil when...

    Remove rear axle hub

    You maybe correct that the hub has to be removed. I found a axle diagram on another post. The steps in the shaft indicates to me that the outside bearing will come off with the shaft. Which means I need to pull of the hub to get the new seal in place, what a pain.

    IH 404 Rear Hub Snap Ring Removal

    I don't understand why you need to remove the hub if you have the axle out of the tractor. Do you have any pictures of the axle assemble out of the tractor?

    IH 404 Rear Hub Snap Ring Removal

    I am doing a job similar to yours on a 1963 404 IH. I also can not remove the hub from the axle. So I am attempting to remove the axle from the tractor. It sounds like you did this already. How did that go? Do you have any pictures that you can share?

    Remove rear axle hub

    What I meant about pushing against is a bearing splitter is designed with a sharp edge to wedge between the bearing and a housing. So the wedging effect will break loose the bearing from the shaft, See sketch. Then it is used as a puller to pull the bearing off the shaft. Of course the bearing...

    Remove rear axle hub

    Take a look at this 4 minute video on youtube. I believe this tractor is similar to mine and the axle should come out with a little effort once I remove the bolt that keeps it to the bull gear. Video on youtube= "B275, B414, 276, 434,444, and 384 rear axle replacement" Thank for the picture...

    Remove rear axle hub

    Thanks for the input. The hub has multiple splines not one big keyway. I've used candle wax before without much luck all it does is catch on fire. I will try heat one more time if no luck I will remove the axle.

    Remove rear axle hub

    A bearing spiltter needs another close surface to the hub to push against, which there is none. I need info on how to pull the axle. Thanks for the input.

    Remove rear axle hub

    The rear axle seals have been leaking for years now I will attempt to change. Hub is stuck hard to the axle, I use port-a-power, banging on it, wheel puller and heat (400+F) nothing work so far. Would it be easier to pull the axle with hub out of the tractor? 1963 IH 404 tractor.

    1973 570 case Bent push rods

    Update, tractor ran good for a few days then I heard something different that wasn't sounding quite right. Did a compression check, #2 cylinder at zero compression. I pull the valve cover off thinking I would check the valve adjustment and found two bent push rods. Pulled the head off and pushed...

    Diesel valves and seats

    I checked the valve recessed measurement. One exhaust valve is too low below spec. Max recessed being 0.015" my measurement is 0.020". I thought about taking it back in to have the seat and valve changed but then I looked at the results of my compression test. That cylinder has compression...

    Diesel valves and seats

    Thanks for the info. I gather that it takes the correct tools and the right guy to get a good polished valve and seat. Those two are difficult to find. I haven't found that combination yet around here. Then the question becomes how much more compression do you get from a polished valve. I...
