Temperature gauge
Replaced many gauges in both gas and diesel tractors and use the reproduction one that fits 1953 to 1964. They are the ones with the red and green ranges on the face and black bezel. Not 100% original style as they are illuminated but are close enough. They are sold by Sparex who sell to... -

1958 820 with 5 speed
That's interesting. I have always read that the 820/821 was a 4-speed, not a 5-speed. The ad above clearly says 5-speed but have seen an 821 with a 4-speed. Tachometer was likely an extra as I have seen tach adapters that go in place of the hydraulic pump. -

Power Steering ford 800
That's only the 2nd power steering kit like I've seen, the other is on my tractor. There should be a steering valve assembly sandwiches between the steering wheel and steering gear with a couple long bolts or threaded rod. The power steering pump is on the right side like a factory power... -

Ford 600 Tractor Electrical
That's a NAPA regulator. Many times regulators are stamped or printed with the voltage on the lid, base, or on the back side. 12V systems are negative ground while 6V are positive ground. If it is connected to the generator, than more than likely if the generator is 12v the regulator is too... -

Backlash adjustment without removing steering assembly?
Yes, you can adjust the sectors with the gear on the tractor. Did it this summer. All you have to do is take the four bolts out that attach the sector/arm assembly. You need to adjust the left sector first then the right sector. You will lose some oil, and you have to make sure the...- KCM

what's the 8n toplink for
I'm sure Ford had grand plans that they would be used for future implements, but in reality very few were designed to use them. Disappeared after the Jubilee/NAA so tells you how needed they were.- KCM

Swapping sos to sos
Two very possible reasons why the oil is getting pumped from the transmission to the rear. One, the seal on the SOS output shaft is bad or disintegrated (cheap and easy fix, just have to split the tractor). Can be diagnosed by removing the left side cover on the rear differential housing. Or... -

Ford Funk 6 cylinder
Nope, the bellhousing bolt patterns are different, as are the starter ring gears. Lengths are different as well. Engines are totally different animals, and lots of differences between Funk kits. Your best bet is to see if you can unstick your current engine, which may or may not be too...- KCM

1948 8N gear shift knob
For a 1948 the small ball is cast into the shift lever like the 9N/2N, does not screw on. That change did not come until 1950 when the screw-on plastic knob was used. Two possibilities: someone replaced your transmission shift cover with one from a later 8N, or the knob was cut off and rod...- KCM

Loose Flathead 6 Cylinder Funk Kit Value?
The answer is: depends on how bad somebody wants it. But seriously, depends on how much of the kit you find. If you can find the complete kit with engine should be worth several hundred dollars. Cast iron pan style kits more desirable than the channel frame kits. Been many years ago but...- KCM

Ford 861 Water Temp Gauge Issue
Common problem. The threads get corroded or gunked up and the nut will not screw in all the way. Best fix is to take a bottom tap and clean the threads. O-ring trick might work as a cheat. A cheat I've used is to cut a slit in a lock washer the OD of the bulb flange, 1/4" if I remember... -

621-62 tug help
The filter is for the hydraulic system of the torque convertor. The 621-62 is a different animal as it does not have a traditional clutch. They mated a torque convertor to a tractor 4-speed transmission just for the military tug. It operates much like a standard 4-speed tractor to shift, push... -

Trade Cable Activated Sherman Overdrive?
Any auxillary gearbox should be interchangeable between a 9N/2N/8N as long as the gearbox and tractor gears match. Don't know if F&T ever made both style gears. Only ones I've seen have helical. Somebody on a forum once said Sherman made a straight cut gear version, but I've seen a lot and...- KCM

Trade Cable Activated Sherman Overdrive?
It was after the 2N came out. I was thinking it was 1942 or 1943, but one source I found said 1944 which is probably correct. I've read that the first with the helical gear had HX stamped on the front flange of the transmission where the transmission and rear housing bolt together. The...- KCM

2000 torque converter tractor
I agree it is a Frakentractor. Likely started out as an aircraft tug used by the military. Would have originally had an enclosed cab and front fenders, had no PTO or 3-point, and indeed has a 4-speed transmission with a torque convertor. Looks like somebody remove the cab, installed 8N or... -

What's this extra bracket attached to the PTO cover?
Probably misunderstanding Leroy's comment, but the PTO shaft looks stock to me. Early equipment used a 1-1/8" diameter 6-splined shaft as standard. 1-3/8" diameter become a standard during the 1940's and 1950' (I'm sure that varied between manufacturers) and by the late 1950's was standard...- KCM

Jubilee pto hyd pump, live pto
Chris, I have not taken one apart myself but have communicated with someone who did a long time ago. He said there is not much to them and he had repaired them before with success. I'm pretty sure you have to remove the piston pump to get the live PTO pump off. If I remember correctly, I...
