I just picked up an H over the weekend at a local auction. I wasn't aware at the time that the clutch pulley ran off the end of the Cam. When I think of a cam shaft i think of a small thing that if you drop it it will snap in half. (Small Block Chevy) It seems odd that they would use it as a power source and i'm sure that John Deere had tested this past the breaking point. John Deere advertised it as a one-two plow and i just can't see a cam shaft taking that kind of abuse.
Is it really that strong? I don't plan to do much with this little tractor, mainly a restoration and toy around with it. I had thought about pulling a small david bradley manure spreader but i'm not sure i want to do that depending on the weight the spreader may get to when loaded.
