Hello, I recently purchased a pretty clean little Ford 2n to use on my property to help with the chores. I am not overly familiar with these tractor however am mechanically inclined. I was hoping someone could point me in the direction of a few things to look at as I need to fix a couple things...
The brakes are terrible, pretty much non-existent. I can put all my weight on either side with little results. Is there something I should look at first?
I noticed when I backed off the trailer and a couple times after, if I coast, I get a ratchet noise from the transmission. This happen regardless of in gear of clutch pressed. I will go away if I move the shifter to one side or the other. Normal or not?
I believe I need to drop the hydraulic pump and service it. The lift arms are jerky when lifting. Other than a good cleaning and service, is there something I should be looking for?
Thanks
Travis
