The engine is a New Holland 332T/JF in a mid 90's New Holland LX856 skid steer but I've traced the engines past to Ford tractors with a 3 cylinder 156 / 192 / 201 ( this isn't the 4 cyl 174/192 )
The connecting rod bushings are angle cut making for difficult install. The previous owner / machine shop damaged 3 new bushings in a attempt to install.
Anyone have a pic of the factory tool? I'm thinking it should be:
a angled tube to support the rod,
( part # 2 ) a pin that is slip fit into the rod with a stem that is slip fit into the bushing. This would also have a angled face to match the bushing.
There would then be a angled tube that would contact the bushing and slip fit over part 2 . The whole mess then would be put into a shop press. I'm also thinking a long screw could be used to pull the parts together. This would reduce the change of miss alignment in the press but, it may cause a rotational alignment problem.
Thanks
