    John Deere model 44 plow

    I started plowing at about 13 with a model 44 2 bottom plow. 50 years later, I got ahold of one and restored it. Plows fine. Problem is, when I take it on the road, it whips violently from side to side. I'm sur my Dad's didn't do that. Suggestions?

    John Deere B Brake Reline

    I have my brake assemblies apart. '46 B. Have had the drums turned to clean up. Those engineers sure wanted to be sure the shaft and gear stayed tight with a tapered spline. The inside of the assemblies are just a bucket of rust. Were the parts originally painted? What color? I plan to...

    John Deere A - What year??

    Can someone bracket the year for this John Deere A. Unstyled must be '38 or earlier, right? When did they go from the flat spokes to round spokes? The picture was taken in 1942 and the tractor looks pretty used. No paint. Thank you, Vince

    JD B running Rich

    Poppin John rebuilt my carb exactly 2 years ago. It?s from my John Deere 1946 B. It?s started and has run great until recently. I noticed it smoking a little while Bush-hogging the last few weeks. Also, it became finicky to start. Used to be 3/4 choke and started right away. Now, choke and...

    John Deere B No Spark

    My tractor started stumbling. Points and rotor didn't look good. WICO C magneto. I installed new points, condenser, rotor and cap. Now, I have no spark at all. Double checked point gap. What could I have done wrong?

    John Deere B 1946 stumbles under increased load

    My tractor stalled a while back and it wouldn't start. I put in new points, condenser and rotor. Then put a kit in carb. Now, it starts immediately, idles and runs smoothly. When bushogging, and hitting heavy grass, tractor stumbles with a little darker exhaust. Have gone up a little and...

    46 JD B axle re-assembly problem

    I replaced tapered roller bearings and seals on both rear axles. Tightening the nuts draws each axle in to 3/8 inch of being seated. Hits a brick wall. Even with a piece of pipe on the wrench, I can't draw either axle in further. Did I install something wrong? Have pictures I could email...
