Thanks Peter it's coming together nicely now, the wheel hubs and components will soke up some time now but I've most of next weeks video done so it will give me extra time in the machine shop 👍
Great video, l can’t understand how they expected them roller bearings to stay in place without at least a circlip of some sort, l just imagine it can eventually work itself out and start to grind itself out and start leaking oil, am l missing something cheers.
No you're not missing anything it was cheap and cheerful the pressed tin cap had a steel backed leather seal for it to butt up to but most of the standard fordson only do 7 or 8 mph so they weren't going round very quick
@@FenlandCrusader cheers that make sense, quick question, do you know John Clarke from Walesby by any chance, good made of mine, he’s got skills similar to you.
The trumpet ends on my 1939 standard seem to have been machined up for some purpose, may be for brakes then I’m thinking now. It is possible the trumpets may have come from later tractor as the tractor had work done on back end years ago. Any thoughts?
@@FenlandCrusader Yes it’s a puzzle what people have done on your tractor over the years. I’m learning a lot watching you put this tractor back together. Great 👍
A great video , its nice to see it being put back together and to see it being done properly Steve.
