    Military Ford

    Military airport tug. My old pal Kenny bought one of those - 15? years ago. It was the MOST WORN OUT tractor either of us have ever seen. Like, we wondered how it could have run long enough to be so worn. It had a 4 sp transmission with a torque converter. No 3 point or pto. Someone had cobbled...

    How many remember the date you joined the service

    I asked google gemini "When did the US military transition from a service # to your SSN?. It returned the following: "The transition from Service Numbers to Social Security Numbers (SSNs) across the U.S. Military was authorized under Department of Defense Directive 1336.1 and rolled out in...

    How many remember the date you joined the service

    Wondering about the time you say they transitioned to your SSN. I enlisted 7/21/71 (Navy) and we were given Service numbers. It was on our dog tags and we had to stencil it along with our names on all our clothes in boot camp. It was within just a few months after that they went to your SSN...

    What are you hoping to accomplish with the swap?

    Ford 4400 power steering cylinder.

    I had one of those .There was quite a bit of slop in all those little linkage plates and pins which made it have rather loose steering. I drilled out all the holes to a slightly larger metric size and used grade 8 metric bolts for the pins. That tightened up the free play a lot. It still...

    Mott Hammer Mower: Onan engine info?

    Probably the best site for info on those Onan CCK series engines is over on Smokstak.com. I had a CCKA in a Miller welder for 40 years. They are great small engines. I put a short block in it once. I may be getting another one in a whole house generator soon. Going to look at it this week.

    Maybe forgot he had already replied. Unlikely he'll ever forget the day he went in.

    201 push rods

    I asked GROK AI. It says they should be 12.17" long. Anybody have a set? I have the expert Ford Tractor Man Larry D in Louisiana looking for me but if he doesn't have them we'll need another source.

    201 push rods

    My pal Kenny is putting together a 201D that was originally in a 1983 545 with the X bracing on the sides of the block. He's needing a set of push rods. I believe they are the longer ones. How long should they be? I think the early ones were shorter and used a different lifter. Does anyone know...

    Why do I have this?

    I never did that but know they can rev a guy up a little.

    What happened to pickups??

    I bought a new Chevy pickup in 2001 and bought a set of mud flaps from the dealer and put them on. In 2006 I bought another new pickup and transfered the old mud flaps over. 6 years ago I bought a low mile 2013 pickup at an auction and transfered the mud flaps over. A week ago I bought another...

    What happened to pickups??

    9 I think you're stretching it a bit there B&D. I'm no fan of surveillance - there's enough of that on our phones and TVs but I'm not too concerned about licence plate readers or flock cameras. At least not yet.

    Re: Update on new Stihl pole saw

    I did something similar here recently. I wear those cheap cheater glasses as needed and have several pairs around here. I usually will hang them on the neck of my t shirt. I couldnt find them recently so I grabbed another pair. When I pushed them up on my forehead I found the first pair.
