    Ford 2000 Power Steering Asst. Cylinder Disassembly

    How does this thing come apart so I can replace the seal? I have the snap ring off already but can't find any information about what to do from there. I can usually figure this stuff out but for some reason I am missing something. Thanks. Jim

    Which Seal Kit for Ford 2000 Steering Cylinder

    Early 70's Ford 2000 with the steering cylinders that have the snap ring on the rod end. One is leaking and I want to make sure I am ordering the right kit. There is a 5 piece kit listed in the parts section of YT and I believe it is about $27. I can see it comes with a snap ring. So is...

    In trouble, need a Zenith expert!

    Working on the "new" tractor today and moved some fuel lines that were getting in the way of carb operation. I must have dislodged some gunk and I am pretty sure it stuck the float needle open. Gas all over the place and wouldn't stop. Removed the carb and took it apart and started cleaning...

    Looking at Ford 2000, questions.

    I am looking at buying a 1974 Ford 2000. It looks good in the pics and I am going to schedule a visit. First question is, are the tires supposed to be loaded? The ones on my 8n are and I would expect the ones on the 2000 should be also, right? Is there anything I should inspect closely...

    Massy-Harris disc questions

    I believe I have a Massey-Harris 7 foot disc. It has the M-H all over it and I think I can see some remnants of the decal on the draw bar. My question is, should I try to refurbish the bearings at the end of the "gangs". Or just grease the hell out of them and go for how ever long they...

    Member Fordfarmer

    I am up by Exeland. Is there someone in this area that can rebuild my 8N engine that you can recommend? I just don't have the time right now to do it myself. I can do the rest of the tractor, but would like to have the engine done this winter. Thanks for any help. Jim

    Recommendations for shop to rebuild 8N in N. Wis.

    I really don't have the time right now to devote to rebuilding the motor in my '51 8N. Do any of you have any recommendations for a place I can take the motor/tractor and have it done? I am located near Ladysmith. I have a trailer for the tractor, and would not have a problem hauling it...

    Brake part contest: you identify-you win!

    I have had a brake problem with one side of my '51 8n. I pulled the rim and tire and when I pulled the drum off some parts fell out. I have been able to figure out what I need to fix it from the FO-4, but I can't figure out what this is and where it goes. When I look at the drawings for the...

    8n brake problem.

    '51 8n. Not sure of the right terminology here, but the right brake was "hanging up", i.e. getting stuck against the drum and allowing the brake lever to fall to the floor board. Typically, I stop, reverse and it releases. I pulled it apart and it was covered with black stuff. At one time...

    Late 8n steering lube R&R

    I have an 8n with the later steering box. When it is really cold, the steering wheel won't turn all the way to the left. (CCW) After working it back and forth for a while it gradually gets better. I am just assuming there might be some crap in the lower steering box that freezes and then...

    Cold weather oil for air cleaner?

    I have to change the oil in the air cleaner in my 8n after cutting 10 acres of golden rod. I am going to have to use the tractor this winter to plow snow on my other land. What do you northern guys use in the air cleaner, for use at below zero temps. Or do you do...

    Still problems with Genny, update #1

    With the help of the experts here, I found the overcharging problem. My Dad had hooked up the genny ground to the field connection on the VR. While I was fixing that I rewired just about the entire system. Nice new wires and ends. Started the thing up and no charge showing on the amp...

    Need value on WD 45

    I have researched as much as I can on the value of this, but I am still not sure. Here is what I have. A 1955 WD 45, I bought from a farmer up the road almost 20 years ago. He took very good care of it, and I am not a farmer so has not been used very much since then. I "sort of"...

    First of all I would like to thank all that helped me on the head gasket replacement. It is running fine but may have some valve problems that I will address later. Regardless, it runs great under power and that is all that is needed right now. My question is, do the radius rod ends (the...
