    9n rear axle housing question

    good point, I'm trying a little harder to save this housing because the flange that mounts to the brake backing plate is a lot thinner than later 9ns that I've seen. It must be a really early feature that was original to the tractor. It's a three digit serial so I'm shooting for as original as I...

    9n rear axle housing question

    Thanks for the feed back, I think I might try brazing and see if that goes well. If not I guess I'll be looking for a new casting.

    John Deere no.9 sickle mower problem

    John Deere no.9 sickle mower problem

    Wow I cant believe they sold me the wrong parts, I just took their word figuring it was a John Deere dealer and they d give me the right stuff. What a racket. When I bought the guards they just had a sticker on the bottom that had the part number on them they do not have it cast into them. I...

    John Deere no.9 sickle mower problem
