    1939 John Deere B Manifold

    I am looking for a manifold for my 39 B but nobody has one in stock and the boackorder dates keep getting pushed back further and further. Will a manifold off of a Mid year B fit in its place or is there some difference that wont allow it to be interchanged?

    Buffing/Clearing IH 2150 or John Deere Green

    I have sprayed a little 2150/JDG but I prefer using Nason Urethane SS when I do a restoration because it looks better and seems to be more durable. The restoration I'm doing on a Farmall now got too expensive for the guy and he decided to go with the factory enamel. ($220 VS $1250 for 2 gallons)...

    1949 John Deere B Restored

    Here is the restoration I completed on my grandfather's 49 B. He originally bought the tractor to participate in parades with us when we were little (20years ago) but was diagnosed with cancer shortly after. They removed the cancerous lung and the doctors advised him to stay away from the work...

    1939 B High/Low Shifter Problem

    I have a 39 B that has a hard time going from high range back to low. It will go from low to high no problem but I usually have to let the tractor die and turn the flywheel to get it to finally click back over to low. It's annoying because 1-2 are too slow for what I do with the tractor and...

    FMD Hydraulic Leak Down

    Just went through the hydraulic system on a Major Diesel. I re o-ringed the pump, valve body, and cylinder with a kit from yesterday's tractor. I finally got the tractor to lift a bush hog but it drops around one inch per min. Sometimes the hydraulis will stay up once the wheel touches the...

    Fordson Major Diesel Hydraulic Gaskets

    I am going through the hydraulic system on this Fordson and replacing all the orings. The 3pt lift would drop once in the raised position. I have the oring set from yesterdays tractor but I'm now trying to find the gaskets. This tractor has some type of remotes it seems. Here is the picture of...

    Late B No Oil to Rockers

    Both are tight, it seems like the leak is forward of the line on the block side of the case. Chnaged oil and filter, no effect.

    Late B No Oil to Rockers

    Just finished up a restoration on a late styled B. Thes is no oil to rockers at any rpm. Oil pressure is set a 15lbs but even if you turn it up it makes no diffrence. If you take the feed tube off of the rocker assembly it gets a tiny pules but not enough to even push it out of the fitting and...

    Late B hood changes?

    This message is a reply to an archived post by JD49B on September 01, 2016 at 14:58:04. The original subject was Late B hood changes?. A little late to the game but I just got the report back on the JD B I'm working on. It has a warehouse date a week after yours and the only spot I can see...

    1949 John Deere B Decal Placement

    The hood was blasted years ago but I went and took a look at it. I can see where the front decals were but don't really see any dinfinitive evidence of where any were at the center of the hood. Here are the only other good pictures of it I have. Not particually sure if it has had a repaint.
