    How great that you can still get parts for it! That was quite a bit of work, and it turned out excellent, as expected! Great job Ken!

      Thank you. The after-market for antique tractor parts is amazing. It needs new rear tires and new rims. My plan is to rebuild the brakes this winter while the wheels are at our local car/tractor tire shop. I will take them off and use the front-end loader on my 2006 John Deer to pick them up and put in my pick-up truck. I already have my winter's firewood supply put up so it will be OK for the tractor to be down for a few weeks. To most folks who have them they are toys, like vintage cars. My tractor is a working machine, my vintage cars are toys. Again, thank you for watching.

      Thank you for watching and taking your time to comment. Yes, the Jubilee has 30HP and tons of torque, and very easy to handle.

    I just acquired a 1954 Golden Jubilee this month. Learned a lot from your video. Thank you!
    Love your workshop.
    God Bless!

      Thank you very much for watching and your lovely and generous comment. I hope you enjoy your Jubilee as much as I have over the past 35 years. My "workshop" is a 5,000 square foot barn that was built in the late 1860's that I saved and restored.

    Thanks for sharing! I am having a similar problem with rear hub and was thinking I would need to replace hub and axle. After watching your video I think I will start by replacing both hubs. If you can find you an original jack that works with the tractor hydraulic you will really enjoy it. It allows you to pick up both rear tires at the same time and you can use the lift to help het the tractor at the right level to line up the rear studs.

      @kensshowtell 11 месяцев назад

      Thank you for watching and your lovely comments. I think you will find, like I have, that the Jubilee is a lovely tractor and user friendly. By the way, it is the 3-point hitch system with hydraulics in a compact and powerful tractor that set these early Ford tractors apart from all the others. It was a Ferguson design and patent.

    I mainly watched this to get to the part of reinstalling the axle nut and SPRING CLIP which you didn't show.

    • @kensshowtell
      @kensshowtell 5 месяцев назад

      Thank you for watching. My pneumatic "wrench" goes up to 400 pounds of torque making putting the axle nut on pretty easy for me. If you don't have access to such a tool; use a 4-foot heavy duty extension and stand on it and that will be good. I've done that before and that is why I purchased the pneumatic wrench. Once it is tight you have to make sure you line up the spring clip holes in the nut and axle. The spring clip is inserted in the holes on the end of the axle behind the nut in the groove in such a way that the hump of it is facing forward. Make sure that both ends of the clip snap into the holes. Sorry about not showing that part.

    Great job Ken! If I may ask, What was the substance you applied to the axil before you slid the hub back on? Was it a type of grease? Thanks!

    • @kensshowtell
      @kensshowtell 11 месяцев назад +1

      Thank you for watching and commenting. This solution of calcium chloride has been in these tires for 35 years and the rims are in bad shape. When I replace them the new rims and tires will not have anything but air in them.

      The radiator came from American Cooling Solutions. The brake shoes I found on Amazon. The hub came from All States Ag Parts. Whenever you need something jus "Google" it.
