Brother has a '47 C that needs a new clutch. We've been told that it has to be split to replace the clutch. How is the best way to support the front half (engine) while its rear end is moved away far enough to get at the clutch? Thanks for any info, as I'm a Case & IH guy & don't know a thing about AC's. (My $0.02 worth. jal-SD)

i park under a beam in the barn. have two angle iron legs that bolt to the bell houisng 5/8 bolt holes on each side and hold the front wheel 1/2 inch off the ground. i use a comealong on the beam and tie to two valve cover bolts to support the motor. pull the motor mount bolts, then "roll" the wheel, motor and radiator forward a foot. might be a little more difficult with a narrow front end, but this works good on a B.----- --- on the clutch, i believe the origiinal B had an update, but it think by the time they got to eh C, they had 1 design. (basically 8.5 inch or 9 inch diameter i think?)

Check the link for an easy way. If you don"t have an engine hoist, rent one for a half day. If you have replaced a clutch before it should not take over two hours from start to finish. Still should not take over a half day.

Picture and this is the bracket I use to lift the narrow front small Allis tractors when I am not using both lifts on engines at the same time.

I roll the front half of the tractor away from the rear half.

Rear half, lock the brakes, block both rear wheels, crib and jack under bell housing.

Front half. If wide front end, drive "V" wedges in on both sides of front axle to lock the front end tight. I use a cherry picker and strap load binders to pickup, support and roll back the front half.

Narrow front end. You are going to have to come up with some sort of sling to hold the front half upright in a horizontal position. Chain on two of the head bolts.

Narrow front - what have you all used for a sling? I've been told that there are a couple of different clutch combinations. How do you tell what you have? IH's have a letter-usually J, after the serial # if its a Rockford-did Allis do anything like that? (Another $0.02 worth. jal-SD)

I use a short chain (2 1/2') with a piece of 3/8" thick by 1 1/2" wide by 5" long (Approximate) strap metal attached to each end - bent in an "L" shape. Hole in the strap metal large enough to accomodate a head bolt.

If you get a large enough chain you can enlarge the end lengths to accomodate the head bolt and don't need the strap metal.

I like to use the head bolts but some people use rocker arm studs to anchor the chain.
