Got myself a real nice hand crank for my 8N, and was wondering where they were stored on the tractor when not in use. Before the tractors had batteries, the cranks must have been kept somewhere on the tractors. Thought mine would be better on the tractor than setting on a shelf gathering dust. Thanks.

I think I saw a photo on a post long ago, with a crank stored under the seat, on the transmission. Might be mistaken tho. Bob in NY

Thanks for your comments fellows. Sure would like to see that picture bg if you find it. I replaced the fenders on my 8N, and got a set from a bone yard. They were in pretty good shape only needing paint. The right fender had a series of four holes evenly spaced that looked too neat to have been just drilled thru. At first I thought it was for a tool box, but they are spaced too far apart for that. Maybe this was for some clips and could have been used to hold the crank. Guess I'll never really know for sure, but they were so neatly made, that I didn't bother filling them. Maybe I can adapt them for my crank. Thanks.

Those two clips on your right fender are probably holders for the rod that is used to hold up the cutter bar on a Dearborn 3-point mower.

I'm trying to find a photograph I have of a neat arrangement where the crank stores in a couple of brackets welded to the left runningboard. I'll post it as soon as I can find it and scan it in.

Saw one stored once by poking the hand-end down into the rear gap on the manifold, turn it and let it lay on the back ports. Don't know, but it probably rattled around a lot. Thought about rigging up some snap clips behind the grill, in front of the radiator, but haven't tried it yet.
