  • It's time to mate the transmission back up to the rear end of the tractor, and finish the gears and seals in the front of the bell housing. Afterwards, I install new detent plates in the transmission covers to help tighten up the shifting.

      And to instruct us, the viewers, on how the various parts interact and their function. It's one thing to do something. It's another to explain it well enough so that others see the logic and function of those assemblies being restored/repaired.

    Good morning Pete great video I like the part where you had your father repair that part for your tractor. I’m going to work with my grandson when I do my Ford to end in the spring and I’m gonna be passing a lot of my knowledge I hope to him so not only is he going to get the tractor but he’ll get some of the knowledge I have and hope he help because hell, I’m 80 years old. I don’t know how much longer I’ll be around but I want him to learn as much she can while I’m still here. Thanks again.

    I have really enjoyed watching you rebuilding the tractor. I have never been a guy who enjoyed mechanic work, but admired folks like you who have the love and ability doing this rebuilds. Just this morning I took my brother to pick up his dump truck and met the mechanic who does his repairs. Miles is a heavy equipment Mechanic and I asked him what piece of he enjoyed working on the most. Miles said he enjoyed working on Caterpiller D10’S. I guess every mechanic has his favorite machine or brand of machine he likes to work on. Growing up on a dairy farm we had a International Farmall H and a Ford 8N, now you know how old I might be. I can’t wait to see you finish the rebuild and see the tractor running like a kitty full of cream. I love ever minute watching you work!

You must get a lot of enjoyment and satisfaction out of doing the job properly. Thank You for sharing your knowledge on old tractors from another Pete from New Brunswick Canada

      That internal torque wrench works great, or you could use the German torque wrench that says “That’s goodeneuf”. For me though I just stop whenever I hear gas flowing through a very small diameter orifice. I think it is air escaping from the threads of the bolt.

    I like your final comments. I distinctly remember a Farmall F20 for sale at the Mecum auction in Davenport, Iowa. It was everything you said, but I especially remember the tightness of the shift lever. It was obvious to me that every bearing, every pivot point and linkage was back to perfect. Was a masterpiece.
