    awesome looking rigs, as old as these tractors are, what is even more critical for furthering
    that old irons life expectancy. A coolant water filter kit, with a zinc plug.......
    saves water pumps, preserves the casting, around the soft plugs, the entire engine block and head..........
    There are a number of brands.... the most basic in my day, was a Donaldson.
    But there is a science to for getting the most out of it with the zinc. preventive corrosion.

    I just bought a 1952 WD and have both the hand clutch cover and shifter tower off. The plug closest to the hydraulics is actually your hand clutch and pto oil, which according to the kerosene in there right now not leaking from the trani to hand clutch, the hand clutch and pto compartment is totally separated from the trani.
    The trani and rear differential are connected by a small hole in the top of the trani section. No fill plug directly for the rear diff.

    Them old WD an WD45's were good tractoer's. I have both. Wd is a 50 yr. An 45 is a 54. Use them both during the summer months. 45 has loader on it.

    Doing final assembly on my 1950 Farmall Cub and your earlier videos have been invaluable. Many thanks.

    Making good progress! The transmission and diff oil looked brand new. I'm sure you've had the experience, like me, of watching a gallon of water come out of the bottom before the oil starts draining from an old tractor transmission.

    Did you ever think you would put together a model kit that big?
    It’s looking good.

    What fluid are you using for the hydraulics?

    • @AntiqueCarsandStuff
      @AntiqueCarsandStuff  ปีที่แล้ว

      I probably used the Traveller brand universal hydraulic fluid.

    what oils did you use? first 2 square caps you used 80w90? what about the back fluid cap?

    • @AntiqueCarsandStuff

      80/90wt in final drives, transmission/differential. Universal hydraulic fluid. 10-30wt in the crankcase.

    Can u turn a wd45 trycicle front end to a wide front axle and are they hard to come by

    • @AntiqueCarsandStuff
      @AntiqueCarsandStuff  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not sure about that. This is my first AC.

      It's not difficult at all, and depending where you are they're not too hard to come by

    80w-90 for the trans and diff and final drive?

    I always pull drain plugs anyway ti make sure there is no water in there. Maybe hear it run next episode?

    • @AntiqueCarsandStuff

      Yes, that's a good idea. I've had others with lots of water in there. I'm working on a wiring diagram now .... 12 volt alternator with voltmeter. Hopefully I can get it wired up correctly and fire it up soon.
