(Side mounted distibutor)

#1-Gov, What is the purpose of the washer(part#357319S) behind the gear on the governor? Mine does not have it. Do I need to get one?

#2-Dist, Got a new dist shaft and cam weights. New shaft has no holes for collar or gear the FO-4 manual tells where to drill shaft for collar pin and gives a dimension for endplay, but how far does the gear go up on the shaft? Just far enough up as not to rub on timing cover? Or do I need to have the cam in and check backlash first, mark for hole then drill.

#3-Front rims, I need some rims. I went to TSC to get 2 and they were $50 ea. I don't want to pay that. I have seen regular truck rims on a few tractors, I can pick them up for $5 ea. What will fit on the old 8N?

As always thanks for your input.

Jim

I saw a 8n this week end that had car hubs on it. I know this because it still had the brake drum on the hub. If I knew the wheel bearing # I could figure out what hub and wheel would work. I don't think their are but two lug patterns for a 6
lug bolt circle. Gm and Datsun/nissan. I would need a # like S-2, S4, S14. If you can get by a tire store they could tell you how to check the bolt circle. I am not sure at this time . i will ck this out.

Jim, just abought any 6 bolt farm rim will fit your 8n. The thing to watch is the rim isn't to wide or to deep of center dish. If it's to wide or the center dish is to deep it will rub the spindle. Of course your going to be changing your front tires from 19 inch to 16 inch. But that won't hurt anything only improve the steering in my veiw. Try using a rim from an old flare box wagon that has 6 bolt 16 inch rims on it. John

Mantis, The only six bolt truck rims I can think of would be the old chevy 1/2 tons. John
