Here is another update on my made-in-1952 Ford NAA Jubilee. If I had known then (when the tractor was apart) what I know now, I would of kept the optional live PTO kit. I eliminated it so the tractor would drive.
Note - the Ford-Dearborn factory manual does not show parts that I found. I suspect there was a later update and I have found NO documentation for it.
My problem was - no wheel drive. Put the trans in any gear, and at first on cold start - nothing. After awhile it would start to move. Problem was caused by worn out clutch disks inside an optional Dearborn live PTO kit that was dealer-installed (according to Ford).
What is not shown in the Ford manual is a valve that can be turned by hand and it over-rides the entire system and puts into a mechanical lock-up. So even though my system was worn out - it seems if I had just turned the little lever - all would of worked as if there was NO kit installed. I did not know this. Ford did not have it when their manual was printed. I asked here and it seems nobody here knew it either.
I thought maybe my rig was an oddball, but it seems not. I have found several used PTO kits for sale and all I have seen have the same parts as mine. So I am going to assume Ford had an update at some point that I have found no documentation for.
As far as the clutch disks go? YT Tractor sells them here for a 4000 Ford. They have the correct specs to fit the NAA/Jubilee Dearborn PTO kit.
Thanks to some Chinese people, I found a great database for Ford clutch disks. I used this database to identity which disks I needed.

Today's Featured Article - Bad Vibes - by Curtis Von Fange. One of the strangest ways to communicate with our tractor is to ask it how it feels. "Ask it how it feels," you say? Yup, ask it how it feels. Now, as with the other articles in this series one has to be able to hear what 'ole blue' is trying to say in response. The nice thing about our old iron friends is that they are usually quite consistent in their response, rather unlike some people I know who might change what they say due to the weather or other mitigating circumstances. But since t
