Mid restoration the front pedestol is already bolted on. If I go ahead and install the radiator will there be enough room to slide the complete fan shaft assembly in the radiator and back in the govenor or do I need to install the fan assembly first the slip the radiator in and around the fan and pedestol? Thanks for the advice

DeerePuller, I always install the fanshaft & fan before installing the radiator..

~If you don't get too far ahead of yourself & you can install the fanshaft [& fan] by rotating it in from the L/H side BEFORE the air cleaner & air intake are installed. The fan shroud can't be pre installed to do this though & it will have to be laid back over the fanshaft & bolted to the radiator after the fanshaft is rotated in & installed.

JD FAN; I INSTALLED THE FAN SHAFT WITH THE RADIATOR AND SHROUD INSTALLED BUT HAD TO MOVE OUT OR UP THE GOVERNOR ASSY, STEERING SHAFT AND HOIST UP THE GAS TANK AND OTHER ATTACHED PIECES.
I WAS INTO IT MAINLY TO REPLACE THE CAMSHAFT AND INTERNAL CAM BEARING OIL LINE.
DON'T RECOMMEND THAT LAST PART UNLESS YOU HAVE RUBBER FINGERS, ELBOW AND EYEBALLS IN YOUR FINGERTIPS. EASE OF REPAIR MUST HAVE COME LATER THAN 1948 FOR THE JD B ENGINEERING TEAM IN DES MOINES, ETC.
GIVEN A CHOICE I WOULD REMOVE THE FAN AND SHROUD
AS THE EASIER REPAIR PATH.
EITHER WAY THERE WILL BE SELF REPAIR SATISFACTION WHEN ITS DONE AND (PUTT-PUTT ..... PUTT) RUNNING AGAIN. GOOD LUCK TO YOU AND YOUR KNUCKLES.

Which ever way you go make sure you slide the radiator fan shroud up on the fanshaft before you put on either the radiator or fan shaft. I always put the fanshaft on first.

Haven't worked on this part of a '37A, although I have one. If it were me, I would go ahead and put the fanshaft on first, regardless of the clearance you have. Less risk in raking the veins on the radiator and causing a leak, especially if it is a new core. Just my opinion, I could be wrong.

DP:

Not familiar with an U/S 'A', but on our late-styled 'A', we would remove the radiator mounting bolts, and wiggle it forward, and gain enough room to remove and replace the fanshaft.

I think you can do it either way. With the radiator in there you have to be extra careful you don't bump it. But then again, you have to be just as careful installing the radiator after the fanshaft, too.
