    1020 Clutch Replacement

    I'm looking to replace the clutch in my '66 1020 Gas here pretty soon. I'm good with a wrench, but have never split a tractor before so this will be my first time. I have the shop manual, and will be looking to building me a set of splitting stands here in the next week or so. Tractor does have...

    1020 Runs Inconsistently

    Got a '66 1020 gas using it to mow. It fires up right away and runs like a top for 30-40 minutes and then it begins to sputter. It will start off as just a slight sputter and then gradually get worse until it's constant and wants to die. I shut it off and it is very hard to start again if it...

    1020 Carburetor Problems

The fuel bowl was leaking badly and it idled badly and was extremely dirty which is the reason for the rebuild. I've rebuilt the carb recently for an 8n and they are fairly...

    1020 Control Arm Shaft Leak

    Howdy, I'm working on my 1020 going through and fixing the various leaks. I have searched and read several of the post about fixing the o-rings/seals on the draft control arms, but have one question.

    1020 Mower Size

    Well I decided to bite the bullet and buy a 1020 tractor recently. It's in decent shape, has some leaks nothing that I cant fix in due time, but great paint and tin.

    Cant Decide on tractor

    Howdy, we recently bought some property 14 ac and I am looking to get a tractor to do some mowing, driveway grading, and fence building. I thought for a while I'd just go buy an 8n due to how cheap and plentiful they are, but then I stumbled upon a couple of JD 1020's for sale in the $4500...

    8N 3PT Arms Don't Go all the way down

    Howdy, I have a '49 8n that I've been working on lately. I recently took the handle off of the hydraulic lift control to put a new cork friction gasket behind it. It needed a little heat and some prying but I got it off, replaced the cork, and put it back together. Now it seems like the arms...

    Axle Trumpet Studs

    Does anybody know where I can find some new mounting studs for bolting on the rear axle trumpet? I messed up the threads on one and need to replace it. I realize I can just use a 7/16" bolt but studs are generally stronger than a coarse thread bolt. I've looked on here, nnalert, and mcmaster...
