Hi, all. I just bought my first tractor, a Ford 8N. Not going to restore, but will handle maintenance and minor repairs myself. Between the tractor and my tillage equipment, I see some pretty big nuts and bolts.
Is my 3/4" ratchet/socket set (hand tools) going to be enough? Did anyone need a 1" drive set? I don't have an air compressor, so I'm not interested in moving to air tools.
I've worked on cars for years, so have plenty of automotive grade hand tools. Any tools really specific to tractors that I should add to my arsenal?
I did try to search this topic, but I couldn't come up with a search term specific enough to really narrow down the results.
Thanks.
