    OT - Weekend Project with my Son

    I heard the same about the grease fittings. I may snag one in the next day or two, I need to trailer a motorcycle out to NE.

    OT - Weekend Project with my Son

    That's pretty sharp! What was your impression with the harbor freight trailer?

    OT -- Chainsaw

    I just love my stihl 180C (I believe that's the model, just the next model above the 170). One pull full choke, one pull half choke, go! Light weight, nice case, easy to adjust the chain without any tools, and very little vibration. Not cheap, and not the heaviest use saw, but it has seen a LOT...

    Tractor Update

    Good job! That adds some value, for sure! (If you're still wanting to sell it) I cant remember if I complemented your ammo can tool boxes, but I like them! I have a similar set up on my rat-rod cx500, except that I used .50cal cans. They're great, watertight and durable. My 9n is without...

    9-n

    Maybe you could snag a deal on ebay, but if they're local (you can see them and dont have to ship them) it's probably a good bet. $60 a fender seems pretty decent to me.

    Gear shift lever

    You mentioned that the trans cover may be worn...does it look worn or broken? Only reason I ask : mine was busted and was really sloppy.

    motorcycler tires? enough load range?

    Just be sure to check the sidewall. I think the front tire on my cx500 is rated for 325-375ish and my r90/6 is a bit higher, but those are fairly light bikes by today's standards. Most of today's full size bikes are so big that I'm sure you can find some higher rated tires. I'm starting a...

    Tolerances-kingpin, bushing, axle (for machine shop)

    That's what I thought right after I posted. They can measure it much better than I. I left the bushing with the axle.

    Tolerances-kingpin, bushing, axle (for machine shop)

    I'm taking the front axle from my 1940 9n to a machine shop today, and I need to know what the measurement of the axle hole should be (it's a bit egged). I have a new bushing and a new early style pin, but I want to be sure to tell them the proper measurement. It's not too bad, so I think it can...

    OT (sort of) - Old Ford Pics

    What varieties of fruit trees do you have Ed? I just planted a few apples a couple weeks ago, and am trimming up the other trees that have been long neglected on the property. I've got 2 mature apples (3 new trees), one Asian pear, a couple other pears, a sweet crab apple (my favorite by...

    finally got the kingpin out!

    I finally got the old kingpin out of my 1940 9n today! It had the early style kingpin, and I've been fighting it for what seems like a month now. I don't have a cutting torch, so I had to go at it with a sawz-all. I spent a bit of time almost every day over the past month working on it...

    8N tranny

    Hey relax, no one means any harm. I would guess that Old browses more than one forum (as many of us do), and probably responded to your post somewhere else as well. Feel free to ask more questions, or buy an owner's manual for your friend as many of these fairly simple questions will be...

    ford 9n steering column/shifter housing gasket

    I am replacing a casting on my 1940 9n, and I need a few gaskets. I have been able to locate the required gaskets that fit between the upper steering housing and the lower steering housing (on external_link), but I'm having a hard time finding the gasket that joins the lower housing to the...
