    1945 2N - lift issues. ( what am I in for? )

    Quality seat time last weekend: 1+ acre food plot, Dearborn 2-bottom plow, disc, etc. Put the ol' girl to work and boy does she pull. One issue toward the end... My tube-frame disc is about the limit for the 3pt lift. As I've been working this tractor I have noticed the pump noise under...

    Front engine seal 1945 2N

    When running, it drips a good sized drop about once per second. The front seal area is very greasy / oily. I have my front axle out anyway but haven't dug any deeper. I really do not want to drop the pan right now. Any less invasive solutions or tricks in this area? Can I pull a timing cover...

    reconnecting #^%$#@ lift control - 9N/2N

    1945 2N - re-installing the top cover on my 3-pt lift. I have both side covers off... Is there a trick or technique to getting the control fork over the little valve thing on the pump? I can juuuust barely fit my hand in there, but can't really move my hand much once it's in there, much...

    how do aftermarket fenders compare to original?

    I will be replacing the fenders on the 1945 2N. Are the repop fenders decent or are they chinese tin foil? Any source better than others? Want to avoid being dissapointed, so interested in any experiences with new fenders. Thank you, -Karl

    Lift Arm removal help?

    1945 2N - I need to R&R an upper lift arm on the 3 point hitch. It's stuck on the spline and I can't get a gear puller on it - no edge to grab. Currently soaking it with BP Blaster in hopes it will loosen up. I'd rather not do a top cover rebuild at this time. Have not tried heat... Any...

    600 SOS to run a tiller?

    Have a line on a 600 series SOS tractor. Not sure how the ground speed / PTO speed works on those. Good for running a tiller? (I currently run a 1945 2N but reluctant to get a tiller for want of slower ground speed. Maybe another tractor is a better investment than a Howard reduction. ??)

    PTO - belt pulley adapter ID?

    Found one in a barn. Looks usable. Don't see any markings on it, Ford or otherwise. Held it up to the 2N and seems like it should fit. Is there a way to ID these or are they pretty universal? (I have an evil fantasy involving a belt-driven shingle mill...)

    Throttle control / governor question

    The speed control under the steering wheel really only does anything in the last 1/3 of travel on my 1945 2N. i.e. I can move it from zero thru 2/3 of the range with no effect, then the last 1/3 seems to do something. Is this typical or does it seem like something is way out of adjustment...

    HOT generator?

    My son put an hour on the 1945 2N today. Afterward, I got out my handy IR thermometer to check engine temperatures, etc. Everything looked fine until I accidentally made a pass over the generator. 150*F+ Hot to the touch / can't keep my hand on it. The dang cylinder head is cooler... 6v...

    *pic* Brackets under rear axle? Vestiges of a loader?

    On my recently-acquired 1945 2N, there is an angle iron under each rear fender mount with a round post facing inboard. Looks like mounting posts for something. Are these original or the vestiges of some long lost implement? Trying to learn what these were for. Thank you, -k

    Newbie saying hello / check out my new prize

    Hi all. Great forum you have here - I've learned a lot already! Below is my recent auction purchase. They said it "don't run" but I got it home and found it just needed a starter switch. Starts right up, 25-30 psi oil, no smoke, everything works. I had planned to restore it, but now I'm...
