    My Te 20 with hi low

    Not a Sherman. There were a number of manufacturers of auxiliary transmissions for Ferguson and Ford tractors of that era. Sherman was the most popular in the US, but Howard, A&I, and others also manufactured specialty units of various sorts. Post the picture with the shifter in the '8N Ford...

    My Te 20 with hi low

    In the second picture you can see the shift for the auxiliary transmission on the right side of the bell housing. I have a Sherman in my TO-30, its shifter is on the left side, this is another brand, maybe Howard?. It was added either by the dealer who sold the tractor or some previous owner...

    1964 ford 2000 won’t move

    I had that happen once... got off the tractor to close a gate and when I got back on the tractor would not move. It was the clutch. Exactly what happened to it, I do not recall. Not sure I even tried to dissect it, 'Razor', the crusty Ford dealership retired mechanic (retired to parts man)...

    1959 871 transmission pressure test and band adjustment

    Remove the last two and it'll fall off - I'm not certain without looking at the book which are valve body bolts and which hold the valve body to the transmission, but if it won't fall off you haven't removed the right bolts.

    Maybe not, but be aware that the tractor will be less stable on hilly ground...

    1959 871 transmission pressure test and band adjustment

    With the description of the fluid it's probably a good idea to change the filter. I believe our host here has them, along with other suppliers. David

    1959 871 transmission pressure test and band adjustment

    Welcome to the board. You're in the right place. Symptoms point to the valve body and a stuck valve. You'll need to pull the cover - follow the shop manual instructions carefully so as not to mangle any cables. The valve body is right on top and you'll be able to observe the action of the...

    1963 2000 needs gas tank, HELP PLEASE

    The valve that attaches under the tank has a fine screen associated with it. Turn the valve in to shut off the fuel flow, turn it out to run. You should probably check and make sure it's open before doing anything else. Here's a thread about the valves with pictures - the bolts holding it to...

    T20 fergie,hard steering

    https://www.greenpartstore.com/john-deere-special-purpose-corn-head-gun-grease-an102562.html Corn head grease is thick enough to stay (pretty much) confined behind poor seals but thin enough that it will slump and maintain lubrication on the teeth of the gears in places like steering gear boxes.
