- Hi in this video I thought it would be interesting to go over the clutch it’s components and how it works within the tractor pulley before I install it in the tractor ,hope it’s of interest thanks . Sorry for the half view of the driver near the end ! .
I am so glad I happened unto this video. I am rebuilding a clutch on my '47 B that someone else did several years ago. That person did not insert cotter pins in each of the T-Bolts. If one of those bolts worked it's way back towards the first reduction gear it would have caused real problems...and expensive. Thanks again.
I'm a vocational teacher in Ohio And your videos have been priceless we are redoing a 1943 B I do appreciate it
So sorry for the late reply , that is excellent to hear , these videos where made just for that very reason to help like minded folks on the preservation of these old tractors and to hear it’s helping students do just that made my day , Regards David H.
Nicely explained David , gonna have to pull the clutch on my A at some point it sounds like a bucket of old bolts ! Putting it off because of moving the back wheel out on its shaft have heard they can be a swine to shift spes if they haven't moved for years .
Mat Naylor yes totally agree be careful with those cast hubs the splined fingers can break at a drop of a hat , plenty of penetrating oil and gentle heat and loads of patience .
Thanks again for a great videos.
David Wolf your welcome David thanks again for your support.
Do you have any suggestions for removing that drive gear so I can take the clutch slide assembly out? That assembly isn't sliding very free so I wanted to remove it to see what's going on.
Hi Brandon , the drive gear as you’ve guessed is extremely tight on the slide coupling , the ones I’ve removed in the past have required a heavy puller and heat , you will break something if you don’t warm it up , it needs the heat to expand it for both getting it off and also for pressing it back on , before removing it take a few accurate measurements as to where it sits on the slide coupling I think in the workshop manual they are given . These components suffer badly with dust be it clutch lining , dusty condition from use , even saw dust if the tractor has been used a lot on a saw bench which seems to be the usual use for these things now a days . I mention this as I’ve had one which was a bit sticky , the clutch seemed to hang for a second or so before freeing off , I soaked it for a while with SAS penetrating oil and it eventually freed off , just thought it was worth a mention , that gear is really tight when it does go it’s explosive so be careful . Regards David H.
