Had a problem with my 8N fan rubbing against the radiator. Took the hood off and inspected the radiator. Found out that the front axle support (where the radiator rests) is somewhat loose and has a tendency to turn towards the fan blade. When this happens, the blade hits the edge of the radiator. I assume that this is a problem - that the front axle support should not be loose. Any suggestions on how to correct this?

You're so right, this should not have the tendency to move. It holds the front axle on!

Tighten the bolts that attach it to the front of the motor. And inspect the welds that hold the various parts of the axle support together. If the tractor has been used hard, or has had a loader installed, it's not unknown for these welds to let go. If it's not too bad, it can be rewelded, suggest you have backup plates or stiffeners installed.

Also check the bolt attachments on the front of the motor. Again, it it has been used hard, one or more of the attachment points may be cracked out. This is very bad indeed, and you may be looking at a new pan or block if this is the case.

Don't use the tractor until you've figured out why this is moving.
