    That was cool, though it was kind of a teaser,lol. I could have watched it go all the way back together, lol. Not that I will ever do this stuff, but I really enjoy watching it. I just wish I could smell the awesome smell of the shop. I've always loved the aroma of working on machines. There's just something about working on machines that is awesome.

    Makes me wish that I'd kept my old 730 gasser! Extremely stout ol tractor for the day and ahead of the times in regards to the reared as far as hydraulics, independent pto and 3 point hitch. Not many plow days down here in KY but would've been pretty sweet to have to run up and made new friends in Indiana! Great video Brandon and keep'em coming

    Thanks Brandon that was awesome the way you heated the gears in oil and they slid right on 👍

    If you don't have one already, take an old file and grind end like a wood chisel, makes the absolute best scraper for old gaskets

    Mercedes- Benz fuel pump is set up the same way you have to heat up the parts for interference fit.
    when they are hot they slide down in place, as they cool they shrink tight in place.

    Every time I see a video of an old 2-cylinder diesel being torn down and worked on, especially Pony Start Diesels, one of my recurring thoughts is that these must have sure been expensive to build for Mother Deere back in the day compared to what the competition was building. e.g. IH 660/SWD-9, Case 900, Oliver Super 99 Detroit Diesel vs. JD R, 80, 820, 830.... IH 560, Case 830, Oliver 880, AC D-17, vs. JD 730

    Is that factory wide front? My 730 diesel gramps got in 60 from Rickerts Winchester In has aftermarket wide front.

      Really any clean new oil will work.
      This was new 15- 40w motor oil, I personally use Hydraulic oil, because it has a consistent viscosity at all temperatures.
      250° is sufficient for shrink fit bearing and gears.

      @@robertfoote3255 sorry. Was not clear. I mean the oil for heating up the bearings and other stuff. And i see so do you.
      Lub oil can disintegrade above certain temperatures. This would mean that hard particles would get between the rollers of bearings. So use a non dope added oil or coocking/frying oil capable of higher temperatures.

      Not cooking oil.
      Clean lubricating oil......I like a light viscosity hydraulic oil for this application.
      I have been installing bearings in the machine repair trade like this for 40 years.
      Thin viscosity hydraulic oil can be filtered and reused.
