    Massey Ferguson Dipstick Free To A Good Home

    I was told on the Ford Tractor sub-forum that this may be a Massey Ferguson dipstick. https://forums.yesterdaystractors.com/threads/help-identifying-a-dip-stick-with-an-aluminum-handle.1797288/#post-11854289 It has an aluminum angled head with the dipstick fixed inside. * If it is, and you...

    Help Identifying a Dip Stick With An Aluminum Handle

    Just when I thought I had this all figured out (thanks to you all 🍻 ), Amazon has thrown a curve ball. Ford Parts manual shows a part # of NAA-927-A Saw a really cool dipstick with a rubber top that might mitigate the issue @Eman85 brought up. But that is PN NCA-927-B (parts book says...

    Help Identifying a Dip Stick With An Aluminum Handle

    Thanks Shaun. I'll make a post in the Massey Ferguson forum, in case someone needs this for their restoration. From the best of my research, you are right. It is the same dipstick as used in the 8N. Problem with the M-F one is it sits on top of the tube, and doesn't seal correctly. I could...

    Help Identifying a Dip Stick With An Aluminum Handle

    This Dip Stick is in the Hydraulic tank of my NAA. It isn't correct for the tractor, and I'm going to get the correct one. Thought it might be worth figuring out what it does go to, in case it is helpful to someone else. Doesn't look like something that would be re-popped. Full disclosure...

    NAA Rear Wheel Lug Nut Torque?

    Great info Tony. Thank you! This "set" appears to be made up of loose parts. To support your comment regarding the different mfgs of these parts: One plate is the light duty, other plate is the heavy duty version. Some weights have the mfgs name embossed others are just plain with no writing...

    NAA Rear Wheel Lug Nut Torque?

    Installed the whole set of Pie Weights yesterday. Trial fit only. Mostly wanted to see how a complete install would go, and drive the tractor around the yard a bit. This package works out to 417lbs per side (average of 30 lbs each weight). A bit much (like 100 lbs too much weight per...

    NAA Rear Wheel Lug Nut Torque?

    (y) Now that would make me fall out of the chair with laughter if read in a Ford service manual. '70s-'90 Japanese service manuals had some pretty funny stuff. Just from lack of translation skills. Definitely made "reading the instructions" more fun.

    NAA Rear Wheel Lug Nut Torque?

    I would love to find a restored 864 or 865. :love: Thinking about going to the National event in SD this August. Looks like a pretty good time.

    NAA Rear Wheel Lug Nut Torque?

    Thanks Sean. It is not uncommon on large industrial equipment to see wet torque specs. Normally I'd expect to see a dry torque for this size and thread pitch bolt at 130 lbs/ft+. It is the slight stretch in bolt shaft that keeps things from coming loose. Hence my question regarding actual...

    NAA Rear Wheel Lug Nut Torque?

    Question regarding the Ford NAA tractor: Does anyone have factory information regarding rear wheel lug nut torque, and whether the torque spec is wet or dry? I'm only looking for Ford factory specs. Not guesses, or "good and tight". I've been through the NAA owner's manual, factory service...

    Ford NAA New-To-Me, Have Questions

    i definitely agee that diagnostics should not be done based on "your best guess." You make too many assumptions. You have a diagnostic meter that only reads voltage? Might want to get a more capable meter to do diagnostics with, and take a basic electrical theory class. Voltage isn't...

    Ford NAA New-To-Me, Have Questions

    Looks like correct pulleys come in clear finish now too. The pulley on this alternator is most definitely correct for the application. I wondered why you thought this pulley was wrong. Thanks for the explanation. 👍 Ammeters are only useless for people who don't know how to use them. I grew up...

    Here is how the belt sits on the pulley with significant pressure against it. This is about as right as it gets. Would take a serious amount of wear before the belt would drop the 8mm or so to the bottom of the pulley. Will look forward to see your setup. 👍
