Oil bath filter - seal
About 7 years ago I installed a new oi bath filter on the super major, as the clamp was worn and the bottom part was beyond repair. It went with a V-type seal, but through the years it was always a pain in the ass to install and it never sealed well. Today I got it apart and found the seal had come ...

Re: solenoid troubles
Yes, in this picture the cable is probably taken off. I need to put a new crimping end on it. Might get that fixed first and use the solenoid from another tractor to see if it's working. All might be caused by a bad connection, as there where sparks there in the past :s The tractor is now a bit far ...

Re: Split pins front hubs
Yes, the new seal is like twice the side.
I did cut it in half...
The split pins could be installed right away.

Re: Cranckcase and oil splashes
Henk, it might be worth taking the head off. It will allow you to check the liners for grooves.
Did you ever recondition the engine your self?

Re: PTO problem? Gearbox noise Super major 1963
The seal depends if you have a new performance tractor or not. The double lip is for the new performance tractor. All others have 2 seals back to back

Re: PTO problem? Gearbox noise Super major 1963
Hi, I think it's worth looking at the bearings in the pto box. It's not a big job, you will need to drain the oil from the rear end and gearbox. Before you start with this, check the oil level in the gearbox. take out the pto shaft from the back. dismantle the pto lever and you should be able to tak...

Re: Fordson and Dexta clutch pilot bearing causing shaft damage
I got 62052RSSKF bearing as pilot. it says it is normal clearance. Should I worry?
when I need bearings I always try to order skf or any other good quality brand.

Re: Fordson major grinding noise
Hi welcome on the board.
If you drain the oil and take of the side cover, it might tell you a lot.
Transmission handbrake could be causing rhe problem.
Is it possible to engage disengage the pto without any issues?

Re: 1963 FSM rear wheels scalloped or not
Original was the scalloped wheel centre. But the round one will fit and work good. Only change the track width takes more time. Tire size back then was 11-36, which in modern tires is 12.2x36. Emiel, is it 12.4x36 you are thinking of? I have it on one of my super majors. 16.9x30 also looks good on ...
