An earlier post mentioned this but never gave an answer.
1937 Unstyled B. I have the flywheel off and the clutch and first reduction cover off. Since the clutch driver has no adjustment, I assume the clutch side is assembled before the flywheel goes on. Do I need to assemble the ENTIRE clutch and ALL the linkage before end play is set? Or can I stop at a certain point and then adjust the end play? I guess another way to ask it would be: When the crank is shoved toward the flywheel side of the tractor, what does it stop against? Is it the clutch driver hitting the inner clutch disk and pinching it against the clutch drum, or is there something else? If this is the case, wear in the clutch would eventually increase crankshaft end play I'd think. Trying to make sure I get the clutch set up right and end play also. I see no thrust bearing behind the clutch drum.
