Good afternoon I'm new to the forum but have been in & out of Yesterdays tractor site for 12 years. Looks like I Picked a bad time to start overhauling my Oliver 550 diesel. By the end of Jan. the weather here in Eastern Virginia was mild so I started breaking it down And just as luck would have it when I reached the point of no return The Talking heads on the tv started with OMG its coming and it did They actually got it right so now its down to a shovel and a 4 wheel pickup. My sweety was not swayed by the loss of old smoky. Have to get to the fire wood she said. When we dug out she asked how long will it be before the tractor is better? She didn't seem too pleased with I'm working on it.

No such thing as a 1953 8N last year the 8N was made was 1952. In 1953 the Jubilee came out and it was not even close to being an 8N. 8N has flat head engine and the Jubilee has a valve in head engine. So what do you have????

If it has a 5 nipple distributor cap it will be a late 1950 to 1952. Some time around April or May of 1950 they went from the front mount distributor to the side mount. If it has the front mount distributor with the 4 nipple cap it will be a 1948 to early 1950. I have both types of the 8N on my place. My 1950 with side mount has a loader and back hoe on it
Just moved from central MD to Gloucester County VA. mid
January. Didn't expect this much snow here. Have a plow for my
pickup, bobcat, farmall Super A and a 582 cub cadet with plows
still sitting in Maryland as I haven't had time to get back up
there. Have been hand shoveling 300ft drive and walks. Poor
planning on my part I guess.
