Scored some row crop parts

Royse

Well-known Member
Was in the area so I stopped by the local tractor breaker to see
what new additions he had added. Found a workable pair of RC
fenders that I've been looking for for about 5 years now and a
full stabilizer bar setup. Well worth the time to stop in!

(quoted from post at 18:05:29 02/03/18) Do you but that stuff at scrap prices by the pound??
I wish! Row Crop fenders are scarce as hen's teeth it seems.
I can buy new fenders for just about any other tractor, but not these.
The stabilizer set up isn't much better.

OIC...aww Heck, I gotta a brand new set of 8N skins upstairs in the barn that look the same shape as those. What's the difference?

Take another look at your 8N skins, or if its easier, pictures online.
They are flat, not bulged at the bottom like these are.
They do not have that notch to fit around the axle either.
They just taper to kind of a flat bottom point right above the axle.
The 8N brackets also don't have the curve with the carriage bolt
holes set at an angle like these do.

To be fair, 8N fenders or x00/x01/x000 fenders will bolt right on.
But they are not the same. I'm trying to be as original as possible.

I see, maybe I can sell them to GBinMT

This may be a better view of the curve and bulge.
The 900 series is the row crop version of the 800 series.
It always seemed odd to me that Ford used different fenders
between the two. Especially when they will interchange.
600/700 same story. Might need a spacer for clearance
depending on tire size and spacing but they fit.

Thanks for asking the questions. The aftermarket parts
manufacturers don't seem to realize there was ever a difference.

Gary might need the skins you have. Are they early or late 8n skins?
They were different too. ;)

Congrats Royse! great score. You can get them now from Dennis Carpenter, but they are very spendy. Even though yours appear to be rusty they are unusually straight. I don't believe that the 800-600 fenders have the notch.

Not sure royse if they are old or new style. They do have the Ford Script on them

They are a bit rusty Showcrop, but not bad compared to what I have.
Mine are the typically bent up ones that you referenced.

Do you happen to have a link to them on the D-C site?
The only ones I could find are the [b:c1271991f8]16312a[/b:c1271991f8] at $235 each plus shipping.
They are just the skins, no brackets, and they don't have the notch.

According to the CNH website, the 16312-a is the part number
that superseded the originals when Ford quit supplying them.
I believe you are correct that the 6/800 did not have the notch.

Those are the ones that I saw on Dennis Caroenter. I didn't notice the lack of the notch, but that could of course be easily rectified. I have a pair stored away that are pretty badly crumpled. I have been thinking that with repops available now that I should just throw them away. I sold a pair of pretty rough ones maybe ten yers ago for probably $75.00

I don't know how I could rectify the notch if the skins don't reach down as far as the originals.
Nothing there to notch out. They align with the bottom of the bracket don't they?
Bolt holes lower in the skins like the non-row crop fenders?
Wish I had a set here to look at, but not worth a $500+ gamble to look at this point.
 
Nice looking fender skins NashRanch!
They are "technically" for the later 8Ns, mid-1950 thru 1952
I also believe the '53 and '54 Jubilee/NAA used the same ones.
Later 9Ns, the 2Ns and early 8Ns, '48 to mid 50 took the same
skins but did not have the Ford script embossed into them.
They will still fit.

They were actually bought for the 51 8N I had by the previous owner of the 8N. I decided not to use them on my restoration.
So now they are for sale. Think i'll post them on the 9N,2N,8N Forum. Also have a new non script Hood and front 16" 8n rims

Non-script hood? Like 9N/2N or an 8N hood with no script?
I don't remember seeing an 8N hood with no script, so I'm curious.

I don't currently need the fender skins. Hopefully someone local
to you will. Shipping can be a deal killer on big, bendable items.
If you advertise them locally, make sure to include the NAA
tractors once you're confident that they fit those too. Wider net.

Gotcha. 8N side opening, but without the script.
 

There was a post recently where someone cur the script out of his rusty hood and welded it into his new one. Couldn't take more than ten hours, LOL.
 
"I sold a pair of pretty rough ones maybe ten yers ago for probably $75.00"

That's what I paid for these too.
I threw in another $25 for the stabilizer setup.
Probably got ripped off. ;)
