    tricycle front axle

    These questions are for my 67 Farmall rowcrop 504 with tricycle frontend. The lower bolster 380660R91 has a slight tilt. Should it be mount with the tilt forward or backward? When I took it off it was mounted forward. The axle has what is described as a dust deflector43462D. Is it mount with the...

    504 tricycle front axle

    I finally got around to tearing down the front axle on my 67 Farmall rowcrop 504. The threads on one side of the axle are stripped and someone had welded the nut on. The part number I found for this is 370288R11. Google does not seem to be able find much on the subject. Are there other axles...

    led headlights

    I only have one of the OEM housings. I am looking for a complete assembly that would have a similar pattern and distance as the original.

    led headlights

    My 67 rowcrop 504 had one headlight missing when I got it and the other was broken. I am thinking I would like to replace them with led headlights. I do not know what would be comparable to the old sealed beams. Any suggestion?

    d188 thermostat

    My 67 504 would not warm up so I pulled the thermostat. It is not the standard automotive type. It has a butterfly valve and stuck in the open position. Is this type of thermostat required or will a standard automotive type work? What temperature is suggested, 180?

    d188 injector pump

    I removed the injector pump from my 67 504 for cleaning and paint. I followed the manual's instructions for static timing setting the fan drive pulley at 2 degrees after top dead center. The line on the governor weight retainer was in line with the line on the cam ring as described but both line...

    light wiring

    I want to mount red/amber lights on the fenders. Can I get some ideas how to route the wires so they looks neat and are protected?

    axle shims and gaskets

    On 49 8N, I am replacing the axle hub and seal. The axle was a bit loose so I want to adjust the shims. When I removed them I noticed there was a thin paper gasket next to the brake back plate and one between two of the shims. The rest had nothing. Should there be gaskets between the shims? I...

    49 8n rusty hood

    I have most of my 49 8N repaired and painted. All but the hood. The primary point of rust is between the inner frame and the skin. There are a few pinholes through the skin. I would be interested to here how others have addressed this. Would I be better to post this in the bodywork forum?

    Trumpet Gaskets Soak in Water?

    I'm no guru this just my experience. I had to pull and replace the right trumpet about a month ago. Any studs that were finger tight I removed, cleaned, and replaced with Permatex Thread Sealer. I laid the gasket on a flat surface and sprayed it with water on both sides. No gasket sealer just...

    new gas tank?

    About 3 years ago I had the gas tank on a Super A clean and coated at a local metal finishing company for about $200. The tank on my 49 8N is full of rust. I see a new tank on Amazon from Tisco for $123.95 and free shipping. Any opinions? New tank or rework old one.
