I have a 53 ford golden jubilee. I replaced the rear wheel bearing and 1 axle. When I torque the bearing holder for lack of a better term the axles turn the same way. I have 4 shims on one side and 3 on the other. Of I loosen the bolts just a little the axles turn opposite. Should I use more shims or do I maybe have something else going on? The bearings and races are all in all the way.
I am married 62. I am just learning about older tractors. It is great my wife supports me in my endeavors. I do have a 1951 Case VAC 5555045. It has been a struggle to get it to run properly. I think I am close. I am up to running with sparks and flames out the exhaust??

Hi Ron! Welcome to the YT forum. You may want to check out your valve train. But post your question in the Case Tractor Forum and our members here can help you narrow it down

Hello, looking for assistance on a Ford SOS 4000 3 cylinder diesel that has a PTO engaged. The T-handle has threads that are not great to thread to the conduit tube.
Also the cable is not disengaging the PTO ( is an issue there ).
Looking for info to resolve the PTO as is engaged.
I do need a new T-Handle on dash.
Need info on cable ( if needs replacing and set up )
Norman glad to have you here I have rebuilt a few k532 engines with your parts over the last 4 years. Now I am working on a M16 Kohler and I am wanting to know if the third balancer gear is to be positioned identically with the others or 180* opposite. The manual says position it parallel to the other two gears?

Hi Joe! Thanks for the message I got your email just now too. I am going to email you the kohler service bulletin with instructions for the 3 balance gear set up.. They essentially install so all the heavy side of the balance gears are 180 oppose the counter weight of the crankshaft. I will send that email to you now.
It is with deep sadness that I share an update on SWEDE in Iowa's behalf. On 07-07-2025, we lost our beloved dad, husband and grandpa to a sudden cardiac event. He spoke fondly of this group and enjoyed sharing tractor knowledge here. For any unfinished correspondence, please reach his son Andy at

I need help with determining if a wobble box on a nh 479 is the reason for destroying the cutting bar bushing or is something else the problem
Re: the combine you inquired about, make me an offer. Canvas was kept in a heated garage. Where r you located? My cell is 814-229-4344 to talk details.
About 80 years ago, while I was in school and could not get to watch, my father and someone skilled, dynamited the top of a rock that would snag the plow. He hauled the pieces away and it never bothered the tillage since. How, I asked and said they covered the rock and dynamite with soft mud, then blew it. My question,,,,is that how you fracture the rock or was he jivven me?
Saw what I thought were watch fob at an auction site item 907 West central auction and sales dexter Iowa Steve Maynes I have no connection just passing it along
Just thought I would let you know since you responded that I got the tractor running today and it was out on the valve timing by a tooth on distributor. Also the points needed adjustment. I got it running fairly well with the Chinese carburetor but not while on an incline. Bought a kit for the Marvel Shebler and now it runs like a new one. Thanks for your advice.

Did you get the boot, haven't heard from you in a while. Supposed to be almost 60 here to day. Mud is firming up. I maybe shoul see if my planter is still in the shed, worked last year, maybe a couple more. No calves yet should be a couple of weeks yet. Hope all is good with you and Jen. Jim

So far as I know I am still welcome to post but have been rather preoccupied as late. One of my boys had a medical emergency, detached retina, and I have been kept busy driving him in to Toronto for surgery and follow up appointments. He appears to be doing well.
Spring is really dragging its feet here, but will come in due course. Genny and I are both doing fine, and I hope this note finds you folks in the pink !

I wish your son success with the detached retina. My sisterinlaw has been plagued with that four times. She has always had quite thick glasses but they don't really know what triggers it. She is the one that walks 30-35000 steps everyday, they go to AZ for 6 months of the year.
I have a question about a high crop 70 John Deere I owned once a long time ago for a short time. Its first use was on a mounted beet lifter in Minnesota. The right brake turned forward in stead of backwards like the usual two cylinder brakes. I was told that it was driven internally by a chain instead of a gear. I've asked two old time mechanics and looked on the Internet and can't find the answer to this question
