Only took 6 hrs to adjust both axles in a notch and adjust the toe in. Talk about fun...talk about froze up. Talk about tired!!!! Fun, fun, fun!!! Took time to clean up tubes and added lots of anti-seize compound when reinstalling.

Dad also asked me to make him a bracket to hang his safety sign. It's tucked in out of the way. He's not using the PTO or belt pulley at this time so the sign is not really in the way.

I'm heading back to the farm to deliver the Super A tomorrow. NO MORE TRACTOR REPAIR FOR ME FOR AWHILE. It's Miller Time!!

Question: do the tie rod ends next to the wheels on the Super A just slide in and out of rhe larger tie rod or are they theraded? Thanks

Tyman- you go the extra mile with the pictures. What a contribution to the Tractor people. I know the initial feeling " this looks tough, should I quit?" But, I'm on the stubborn side too and end up doing it. If it was easy it won't be satisfying.
Nice Tractor, wish I had a SA.

Thanks Dave,

I don't have much to contribute to this great forum. I hope the pics help others. That would be my contribution.

Take care,
Tyman

I told you to have fun bet you did I have done a few of these myself always a challenge

You my friend should have a medal of honor. :-)

Tyman

How did you break the axles loose? I'm looking at the same thing in the near future.

3 cans of penetrating oil, a sledge hammer, and some 2 x 4's. :-)

I don't think I can hold a banana at this point. My hands are like mush.. :-)

Tyman

Hey Tyler! Can't you think of something else to do to your Dad's SA? I sure am learning a lot at your expense. Great pics & explainations. Keep up the good work!

LOL,

NO MORE!!! Just wanted the front tires spaced the same width as the rear. All at 52" now. Fronts used to be 56" for clearance of the belly mower. Thought about quitting when I first got started, but I'm a type person that refuses to quit. I'm too stubborn. It's good to go now. Probably lost about 5 lbs today. :-)

Dad's got a couple of nice running tractor on the farm now. He uses the Ford 640 for mowing and the SA for fencing work and to run around the farm to do odd jobs.

Now for me it's time for some camping, canoeing, and summer activities. Some golden suds would taste good right about now too.

Tyman, I have a big yard so you can pull your 60' motorhome here and plug it in for the summer if you want to camp out. I have the 8N and Super A both in the yard and....

I wouldn't want to take away from your "fun" now would I? :-)
