That's one thing I wish someone would go to making is worm gear and shaft for the old tractors. Every little bit helps Joey. Good looking wood. I see your Dad was right there to help. Take care.
Hi Joey , it’s a great day to be an American. Have never changed out a steering rod before. I’m guesting that was your dad tossing wood into the shed. I have never used a wood splitter. I always did it the hard way , mall and wedge. I guess it kept me busy and out of trouble. Thanks for sharing. Have a good week. 😎😎 👍
Hi Joey, I really enjoy the videos and monday night live. Always looking to see what your up to next. Hey just looking at that splitter i"d say it pivots down so you don't have to lift the rounds. If you pull that silver handle and lift on the hydraulic cylinder I think it will make life a little easier. I rented one before and discovered the pivot point when I was nearly done. God Bless you my friend.
Hey Latheman Thank you for watching. I’ve let it down before. We don’t do it much just when we have super big rounds. We’ve always like working with it up mostly. I try not to cut wood that big. Lol
Great video. Welding the sector gear like you told Danny usually takes out a lot of play if it's not a press fit anymore. I admit, you really had me wondering why you would be putting the tractor on the ramps, LOL. I'm sure it made it a little easier though.
Good video. It's a shame that they don't make that shaft anymore. Just about all of the old Farmall tractor could use one. All the best from Greensboro NC.
First, LOL. I invested in some new battery tools last year. I decided to go with FLEX brand. Lifetime warranty on the tools and batteries. (They will replace the batteries up to 3 times). I was tired of buying batteries every 1-2 years. The half inch impact you had better have a good grip on it, I think it could snap a wrist possibly. I know it snapped the threaded end off of my roto-tiller crankshaft when I tried to use it to crank it with a socket instead of the pull rope. Probably a 5/8 or 3/4" bolt.
When i was Sammy's age, before wood splitters, I would split with a maul as fast as Daddy cut with a chain saw. Unless it was real knotty hickory. Hard work, but good memories, thanks Joey.
It was great to see your dad out pitching wood. He and I are similar age and I see he likes his gloves as well. Too bad you didn’t get the result you were hoping for on the steering. But as you said, it’s better. I saw you trying to slow “Sammy the Bull” down with that hugh chunk of wood. He needs to protect his back, he won’t be young forever. Thank you for sharing.
I was thinking the same thing . Once he damages his back it's to late then . I know it ain't fun . Right now I fell like I got a fist in the right side .
I recently started using Lucas "Hub Oil" in my 140 steering gears, (3 - 140 tractors in the shed), and I really think it might be the best solution. Lucas doesn't put a weight rating on it, but I think it's about 250 weight, so it's not leaking out! It's less than $10 a quart at NAPA down the street.
Hey Danny I was just thinking about you today. I’m probably going to wield the sector gear to the pinion this winter. I should have done it when I had it apart.
I don’t know this for sure but I think once the worm gear is threaded upd in the housing the sector gear keeps it in place and the cover you seen me screw off acts as a bump stop.

Thanks Bart
I may look into getting some play out of the sector gear and tie rod ends.
Watching y'all split wood making my back hurt, and I ve been chair bound for 3 weeks already.👍 Good job.😂 Jdnut58 ❤
I hope you get better soon my friend.
Good video! Was that Daddy pitching the firewood into the shed?
Thank You sir it was.

I’ve used my share of splitting wedges over the years. I do enjoy my splitter though.

I found it when we got home. It was in the bed of Wills truck. I’ll put it in the mail if you need it. Steering looks a lot better.
lol 😂 no I don’t need it. Good looking pig feed.
Great video. Saw a few farmalls at the Newark vintage tractor show here
in the UK last weekend. All the best 🇬🇧.
Thanks J peel. Hope to get a package your way this week.

It did. I wonder if there’s a way I can wield it without splitting it apart.
I don't think there is.@@Jtwes
Glad the install went smoothly. I've got wood to split also and some more trees to take down. It never ends
Me too. Got 2 more hickory’s and a pin oak that’s been pruned and died.
Good video. It's a shame that they don't make that shaft anymore. Just about all of the old Farmall tractor could use one. All the best from Greensboro NC.
I’ve ask Steiner if there ever planning on making some but they say no.

I look forward to seeing what it will do.
Hey looks like ol dad made and appearance in this video!!!
Yes sir.
When i was Sammy's age, before wood splitters, I would split with a maul as fast as Daddy cut with a chain saw. Unless it was real knotty hickory. Hard work, but good memories, thanks Joey.
I could do oak like that but hickory will slow you down.
Great video, makes me anxious to work on any of my Farmall related equipment. Tell that young fella to quit picking up that heavy stuff.
He likes it.

I was trying to get him to let me lift it but he wasn’t having that.

It’s like using them adjustable metric wrenches you’ve got to hate it but it works
I use john deere corn head greases in all my leaking gearboxes. It doesn't create a cavity. It's called the grease that flows. Really good stuff
I’ve heard of that. I think Farmall51 was telling me about that.
Good video I have a super A that has the same problem
I may revisit wielding the sector gear. I didn’t do that when I put the new one in last year.
I recently started using Lucas "Hub Oil" in my 140 steering gears, (3 - 140 tractors in the shed), and I really think it might be the best solution. Lucas doesn't put a weight rating on it, but I think it's about 250 weight, so it's not leaking out! It's less than $10 a quart at NAPA down the street.
Thanks for the tip. We’ll see what this gear oil does.
Mine had shims in the lower part to take the slack out.
Hey Danny
I was just thinking about you today. I’m probably going to wield the sector gear to the pinion this winter. I should have done it when I had it apart.
@Jtwes I've got to replace the whole spindle on mine someone welded it and now I can't replace the bearings in it.
I’m gonna tear into the steering on my 51 H, everything seems pretty tight just need new gaskets
The nice think about H’s are you can get all of the steering parts from Steiner .
@ exactly, although I’ve some good and bad about the replacement worm gears, luckily this one is pretty tight
I would have thought gearbox had thrust bearings so worm gear would not move back and forth.
I don’t know this for sure but I think once the worm gear is threaded upd in the housing the sector gear keeps it in place and the cover you seen me screw off acts as a bump stop.
90 wt gear oil is what is supposed to be in gear box
It’s a good oil to use for it. Thanks for watching.
I watched a boy that welded his gears in the box up a little then regrinded the gears and had no slack in his box
I’ve thought about that.
Stand that splitter up so you don’t have to lift the logs
Trying to teach character. Lol
