I finished up a complete engine overhaul recently on my 2n s#114296. Runs great, more power, no leaks, no smoke, idles smooth. What more can a guy ask for out of a nearly 60 year old machine.
Thanks for all the help from this board and archives. I use this tractor to mow about 7 acres with a old three reel gang mower, pto power thru a gearbox, 8 pulleys, and vee belts. Kind of a Rube Goldberg looking mower but it works well for me.
Now just have to find the appropriate place on the tractor to attach my swivel mounted beverage holder. Thanks again.

Not as elegant as a swivel holder, but just as functional is my 10 year old soup can. A hole in the bottom, and a washer mounts it to the transmission cover bolt just to the right of the starter button. It was supposed to be temporary, but one more can will serve for this lifetime.

Does your tractor have any WWII production items on anymore like extra long front axle pivot pin, plug in starter button hole, double lever on choke shaft of carb.?

Scott,
I bought my 2n from a fellow in Chilliwack British Columbia that had it for only one year and he and he got it from the original owner who had it for nearly 57 years. It was worked on a small apple orchard most of its life. The only evidance of WWII mods I have noticed is the small hole near the right side of the grill for the manual choke pull. Someday I would like to talk to the original owner to see what configuration he bought it in. He is still around. Do you have a list of what were the WWII mods? Maybe I have more than just the choke rod hole.
Thanks, John

Yours should have had WWII shortage materials on unless it is not the correct engine, the serial# range of non electrical crank start 2N's was from about 100000 to 120000 and on steel wheels from about 99000 to 120000.
