I was a career auto mechanic and your courage, understanding and ability to tackle these complex renewals amazes me as does the original engineering and production!
Love learning about the torque amplifier. Your videos seem so different than the typical ones on YT. You present things in a normal way and manage to mention all the important details while keeping your viewers from getting bored. YT has many problems but you're one reason why I'll never leave.
I don’t understand a word you said but I’m mesmerized by your every word. My husband asked me, “and why are we watching this?” And I replied, “because it’s Pete, it’s fascinating and we want to watch every episode.” ❤️
I have no use for tractor repair. I live in the big city. Why do I watch your repair videos? Its your calming narrative that I enjoy so much. I can and often do watch these videos 2 and yes 3 times. I enjoy with my first coffee of the day. So thank you and DO keep making this type of content. Thank you.
I really am enjoying this series and the little nuances that goes into such a restoration. Your attention to detail and your calm demeanor is something I wish more people demonstrated on a daily basis. It would be a much better world. Thanks Pete.
Thank you Mr Pete for letting us share your experience. My husband was into car engines and all. I helped him. We are in our mid 70s and enjoy reminiscing. That engine joist brought back memories. God is Good. Ty again.
It blows my mind that someone is smart enough to build these things in the first place where everything has to be perfectly in line and to be able to fit everything in it. And this is simple to the modern ones.
Another great video Pete, and the funny thing is, I'm 80 yrs old, don't even own a tractor, well my cub lawn mower, but I love this series and all the past rebuild/restorations the MD, the "A" etc. and now this series I watch intently as if I'm going to be doing the same thing in the future, I followed throught the drawing and thought Oh yes I remember whe he showed that direct drive idea etc. its just so fascinating and you do such a great job of discribing things and keep my attention so locked I just have to keep watching. what does that tell you Pete! "You is a good teacher" that's what!. thanks so much for making this old man's day. and for sharing ECF.
Reminder... Blue locktite for the counter shaft bolts on the front of the housing Pete. Also main shaft bolts, same side... 8 total. Thanks for the video, as always. Nice to wake up to getting my brain a little mental exercise.
Some engineer thought it would insure the gear and shaft went in correctly by adding the extra shoulder that way. It amazes me how thoughtful and deliberate those engineers were.
Sure beats modern engineers slipping in planned obsolescence on everything nowadays! Why it will always be a viable solution to own and maintain these beauties IMHO.
Nothing is impossible, so I will say this, it's almost impossible for me to,not watch your videos to the end. I find your videos to be very interesting, educational and enjoyable. You have a great way of teaching things, which makes them easy to understand and follow. Thanks for sharing this. See you later. Have a great day.
I’m 26 and live in an apartment and I love Pete’s videos. It’s so cool seeing these videos and the comments of people sharing their life stories and experiences and why they love Pete’s videos. Thank you Pete for the great variety of content you put out, the quality of your videos, and bringing so many different people happiness and teaching us new things about farm life. 😊 looking forward to the day when I could maybe have my own small farm!
Pete, your descriptions concerning the reassembly of the various parts are interesting and fairly easy to understand. You are a master teacher with a calm demeanor. Blessings to you.
Pete, you should’ve been a teacher. I’ve been around mechanical stuff most my life, your desire to show your work is amazing. Your talent was wasted not being able to teach young people.
The IH TA was a big problem for John Deere for a lot of years lol. Because when John Deere got into a tough pull and would peter out on pulling power and stall, IH could pull a lever, and split the gear they’re in, in half and pull through the tough spot, and keep on going lol. This was usually used while plowing. I tell you the TA is one fascinating piece of IH engineering, and in 1954 when it first came out in the Super M, the engineers at IH were some of the most brilliant minds in the entire Ag Industry. Even today the TA remains a big mystery to a lot of people, and yeah you have people that love the TA, and you got people that hate the TA and delete them out, but to me, the TA means you always have that edge over other brands, because no other brand can have it. It’s one more reason IH is the best even today still. And it’s one more reason John Deere was always behind IH as a Ag manufacturing giant.
I can’t imagine how much extra work there was for you to line up the camera to capture every shot of each step of this restoration. In my mind it was double work, but I really appreciate that. You memorialized all the steps because from an engineering standpoint it is remarkable, and your knowledge of all these parts is also completely amazing.
it never occurred to me before watching this particular video, but there’s obviously a lot of crossover in the skill set between your clock, fixing and transmissions. You’re a master at both. Pete, don’t forget the blue Loctite .
Thank you, Pete, these videos have been a real blessing for me. Your ability to explain things in a simple, and straightforward manner has made it possible for me to effective badly needed repairs on my own tractor with confidence. I look forward to seeing the rest of this series and I hope you'll be willing to do more in the future as well.
This is incredibly fascinating - but it dawns on me that this tech is fairly old. They came up with this I don't know how many decades ago - all of our more recent tech advances are geared more toward reducing emissions rather than designing new ways to leverage force and get better numbers using physics. I'm still hoping they will get to designs that are maintenance friendly. Thanks for sharing this project with us - I love to learn how things actually work.
As a life long 'fixit' guy, these videos fascinate me. Understanding of the equipment and its inner workings is obviously essential for proper assembly. I think you got it down, Pete! ;) Thanks for the addendum! The visual aids are terrific!
It's hard to express my thoughts in a short comment. Excellent, excellent video Pete. I thoroughly enjoyed the appendices, especially the diagram and teaching of the transfer of power. Your videos on the restorations have terrific explanations. They are structured and comprehensive and you have me hooked with them. You have proved that with patience, research, fair mechanical ability, and a little ingenuity nearly anyone could do what you've shown here. And there is always the allure of staying til the end to see the tractor making smoke in the fields again. Best of luck to you and don't pinch your fingers.
I can't thank you enough! It is a pleasure to listen and learn something new even though I will never tear down and rebuild a TA. Blessings to you and your family.
Pete your knowledge and patience continue to amaze me in your videos keep them coming can’t wait to see the finished product and watch this tractor work
I'm resurrecting a Super C and enjoy your tutorial's immensely. I am more impressed with how you manage to accomplish all that you do with only a hammer and a 9/16 open end wrench and all in only 25 minutes !!!😜
Pete, another home run! You have a great easy going and very patient style of teaching and sharing in all you choose to put in your videos, thanks for all you do. Keep up the great work.😃😃
I've just spent a few hours this morning reconstructing child's hearing and tympanic membrane after cholesteatoma removal but wasn't as complicated as this TA reassembly. Well done Pete
You've given us a lot of information to digest, good job. While I didn't fully understand all the specifics of the TA, I get the basic concept of how it works and interacts. I am a person that understand more when I see it rather than read or told it. I commend your patience and steadfast resolve to get this process done. Thanks for your explanation on this very complicated process. I hope your day is good! Reminder List: Don't forget to pull the retainer on the counter shaft and main shaft, to put Loctite on the bolts.
26:18 watching you do this rebuild reminds me how much I MISS GETTING MY HANDS GREASY. Watching these gears spinning around knowing you’ve gotten everything done just right. I really miss it. Thanks for sharing these videos, good memories of twisting wrenches came flooding back to me..❤❤❤
Pete another great video. I enjoy listening to you describing how to restore these tractors. Your knowledge and the way you approach the restoration is fantastic. Happy Valentine’s Day to you and your family.
I thoroughly enjoy your mechanical videos, super informative. I made a living working on equipment and I’m still learning new things everyday. I’ve owned tractors with torque amplifiers in the past but I never got into them, but was always curious as to how they actually worked. I also enjoy you explaining how they work on paper, which makes it easier to understand. You probably never figured that you would be a teacher! Lol you’re a pretty good one!! Thanks for all you do. Blessings!
Funny when you said pointing with your ring finger, now a days no one would know what you were talking about because they put rings on their thumbs & toes & wherever lol
You are amazing!!! How you remember how all this goes back together is phenomenal ! I am *really* enjoy this rebuild, and of course all the farm related videos. Keep doing what you are doing.
That TA is where farmall really came out ahead of Massey Ferguson in that time period. And I’m a die hard Massey man. MF multipower works in a very similar manner, but in low multi, the tractor is able to freewheel. The TA comes out way ahead because it maintains engine braking and mechanical connection in both modes of the TA
Okay - I was looking to see how the counter shaft would still drive the tractor in the forward gears because, of course, the counter shaft is the reverse shaft (for those of us who don't deal with these tractors). You answered it, so thanks for that - OH, and don't forget to remove those 8 bolts one at a time on those retainer plates and add the blue locktite (lol).
Your skill as a mechanic is unquestionable, but along with that, your ability of explanation of the processes is a talent most do not have. One of my favorite channels and I look forward to all your videos. God bless you and your family.
After watching appendix #2 for the second time I finally understand how a torque amp[lifer works. Great illustrations and explanations to teach your audience. Great teaching, great subjects, great series!!!
Good morning. 👍 It's easy to see you are surely enjoying yourself. What's for dinner? Hillary, what are you reading 📚? I am cooking up some bacon for breakfast. Yum, I am getting hungry. 😊
Pete, this video tutorial series is fascinating. It's obvious you spend time thinking about each segment within the video's and then setting up your camera. You're good at this. 👍👍👍
I love your videos … I know nothing about farming let alone tractors but your humor … you remind me of my uncle … thank you for uploading your wonderful content.
Hi Pete! My wife, Laura, and I watch your videos at dinner time so I have to wait to watch with her. Sorry to mess up your video metrics… we love the mechanical videos as well as the animal care. Laura’s Dad was a farmer too and many things you do and share remind her of him. He passed in 2021.
Impressive teaching of how old tractors worked especially the transmission situation between the years relating good, particularly to the tractors, that you knew a lot of. You're an Expedia regarding these types of things I am so glad to hear and learn from you even though I am in a wheelchair and unable to do so because I am in hospice care now at the age of 50 years old. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of these tractors! This will be available for everyone to know once you pass on have you thought about this? Again you are an Expedia regarding these tractors we all can not afford to lose your knowledge and for all of that, we must thank you for all of it. Sincerely! R.S.V.
I think the Sprag Clutch allows the shaft to rotate at the faster speed, when both clutches are engaged. The two clutches are trying to spin the shaft at two different speeds, but the Sprag only allows the higher speed through.
Hey folks, I follow Pete and this wonderful channel for quite some time, A way while back he posted a video about free range chickens on cow pasture and the not so beneficial benefits of chickens working cow pies for food, I have searched the channel and cant find it? I wanted to share this video with a friend who is thinking about pasturing his chickens with his dexter in the Carolinas to give him some 'food for thought' so to speak, I would really appreciate any help from the community directing me to this vid, Thank you in advance. Love this channel.. Have a wonderful day all.
Appendix one and two both where interesting to listen. I don't think I will be dealing anything this complicated but I sure appreciate all the work you put into this video. Lot of the logic here applies to many other machines with the similar or same setup. Thank you Pete for taking the time to explain these things to us. I'm convinced the tractor will run nice and be a lot smoother to operate. I do have the feeling the front axel may pose a challenge but we shall see.
These videos are FANTASTIC reference videos for now and future generations. Your son or hopefully Grand children may use these videos to re do it yet again! And it is a way for them to remember Dad / Grandpa! yet again an AWESOME job. I need to do something similar when I work on equipment so my Grand Children can learn from it in the future (2 and 5 - Not ready to do these things just yet).
I reckon you are transiting from farming to old tractors restoration! Congratulations, you could include how theses tractos and equipment can be used today in the field.
Wow ! thank you Pete ! that is a neat way to transmit power ! I can't get over having the main shaft in the transmition split so they can rotate at different speeds...it's like HOW do you do that!?!?! LOL but you explained it very well, the direct drive gears seems like a hard way to go about it really but those parts take alot of force so it has to be really tough ! I am in Awe about that tractor ! it truly is a mechanical marvel ! thank you for showing us ! and explaining it all..... by far it's the best entertainment all day ! LOL....i love mechanical things !
Great video Pete! I've had half dozen IH tractors with a TA. I was always a bit mystified as to exactly how they work. You cleared up a lot of mystery!
I was a career auto mechanic and your courage, understanding and ability to tackle these complex renewals amazes me as does the original engineering and production!

So true and I find it crazy that someone was even able to engineer this like most people who never think of these ideas
Now consider all these parts were machined without the computer controlled machines we have today
Pete, you are everyone's school shop teacher!
Another great video Pete, and the funny thing is, I'm 80 yrs old, don't even own a tractor, well my cub lawn mower, but I love this series and all the past rebuild/restorations the MD, the "A" etc. and now this series I watch intently as if I'm going to be doing the same thing in the future, I followed throught the drawing and thought Oh yes I remember whe he showed that direct drive idea etc. its just so fascinating and you do such a great job of discribing things and keep my attention so locked I just have to keep watching. what does that tell you Pete!

Absolutely! We are in our 80s as well, husband grew up on farm but never stayed . We love listening and watching Pete.
Reminder... Blue locktite for the counter shaft bolts on the front of the housing Pete. Also main shaft bolts, same side... 8 total.
Thanks for the video, as always. Nice to wake up to getting my brain a little mental exercise.
I’ve never been a mechanic but I find this interesting and will continue watching and can’t wait to see this old tractor run like new.
Some engineer thought it would insure the gear and shaft went in correctly by adding the extra shoulder that way. It amazes me how thoughtful and deliberate those engineers were.
Sure beats modern engineers slipping in planned obsolescence on everything nowadays! Why it will always be a viable solution to own and maintain these beauties IMHO.
Fascinating! Thanks for taking the time to bring us along! Definitely hanging around for the appendices!
Nothing is impossible, so I will say this, it's almost impossible for me to,not watch your videos to the end. I find your videos to be very interesting, educational and enjoyable. You have a great way of teaching things, which makes them easy to understand and follow. Thanks for sharing this. See you later. Have a great day.
This video gives me a new appreciation for watchmakers from back in the day , remarkable precision
OK Pete. Don’t forget that lock tight. 😁 Now my job is done. You have a great day.
I’m 26 and live in an apartment and I love Pete’s videos. It’s so cool seeing these videos and the comments of people sharing their life stories and experiences and why they love Pete’s videos.

I find it very interesting!
Pete, your descriptions concerning the reassembly of the various parts are interesting and fairly easy to understand. You are a master teacher with a calm demeanor. Blessings to you.
Pete, it's an absolute pleasure watching you explain the who, what, where, and why of how all this works. Thanks for another great video
Manure spreader renovation was super. Beautiful job. Thanks. This was probably the only manure restoration on the internet. Olgoat
You have lots of peace of mind going on there, Pete. Digging deeper, you KNOW what you have now. Good stuff Kemosabe.
Pete, you should’ve been a teacher. I’ve been around mechanical stuff most my life, your desire to show your work is amazing. Your talent was wasted not being able to teach young people.
Petes chirurgical hand 💪🏻

"Delightful Exercise" that was good! I love your restoration videos and you are amazing at explaining things. Still a great teacher! Thank you!
Watching how smooth those gears mesh upon reassembly has to be a great feeling. Thanks Pete. Great video.
This is incredibly fascinating - but it dawns on me that this tech is fairly old.

Enjoying your rebuild. Splitting tractors and rebuilding their internal mechanical workings tain't for the faint of heart. Carry On. 👍
Pete your knowledge and patience continue to amaze me in your videos keep them coming can’t wait to see the finished product and watch this tractor work
Don't forget to locktite those bolts! 😀😀
Red and Blue Loctite? There are many different loctites and they have a number associated with them! :)
I will never do this job, but i love the mechanical action and old time knowledge. Enginering excellence.
I'm resurrecting a Super C and enjoy your tutorial's immensely. I am more impressed with how you manage to accomplish all that you do with only a hammer and a 9/16 open end wrench and all in only 25 minutes !!!😜

Should you ever wish to stay a bit busier, you’d make an amazing FFA teacher or mentor. You are awesome.
I'm really glad to see someone care enough to do a thorough job of a tough task. well done. Be well.
Fantastic video. Cheers. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

A winter farm project for a heated shop. Better get crackin, warm weather is almost upon us.
Funny when you said pointing with your ring finger, now a days no one would know what you were talking about because they put rings on their thumbs & toes & wherever lol
The truly amazing thing is all of this was designed and made without computers... Let that sink in...
You are amazing!!! How you remember how all this goes back together is phenomenal ! I am *really* enjoy this rebuild, and of course all the farm related videos. Keep doing what you are doing.
excellent video!!!!!!!!!! Just call you Mr Goodwrench!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What! No torque wrench on your torque converter?
Thank you for another relaxing video. Coffee with Pete.
That TA is where farmall really came out ahead of Massey Ferguson in that time period. And I’m a die hard Massey man. MF multipower works in a very similar manner, but in low multi, the tractor is able to freewheel. The TA comes out way ahead because it maintains engine braking and mechanical connection in both modes of the TA
I still saw the hose clamp on the end of the TA at time stamp 22:38. I'm sure you probably realized it later on, but thought I would mention it
Okay - I was looking to see how the counter shaft would still drive the tractor in the forward gears because, of course, the counter shaft is the reverse shaft (for those of us who don't deal with these tractors). You answered it, so thanks for that - OH, and don't forget to remove those 8 bolts one at a time on those retainer plates and add the blue locktite (lol).
Lubri-plate is a good company with many products. Drawing - the archetect is revealed.
I have to watch the second half later. Its really a great video so far and when you said "delightful exercise" I really enjoyed that. Thanks Pete!
Your skill as a mechanic is unquestionable, but along with that, your ability of explanation of the processes is a talent most do not have. One of my favorite channels and I look forward to all your videos. God bless you and your family.

Great video Pete!!
Good morning. 👍 It's easy to see you are surely enjoying yourself. What's for dinner? Hillary, what are you reading 📚?
I am cooking up some bacon for breakfast. Yum, I am getting hungry. 😊
Thanks Pete. Very well presented to all watching. I never fail to learn as to your method of explaining.
Pete, this video tutorial series is fascinating. It's obvious you spend time thinking about each segment within the video's and then setting up your camera. You're good at this. 👍👍👍
I realized, as you were nesting all those gears together, how visually beautiful they are!😍
Champion !
Thank you Pete for the great step by step on putting the ta and transmission together it is very help full.
40:44 excellent explanations
I love your videos … I know nothing about farming let alone tractors but your humor … you remind me of my uncle … thank you for uploading your wonderful content.
Great video. Interesting to see the internals of a power transmission, much more beefier than an auto transmission!
Pete.... great video!!
Very impressive!
Very, very cool…
Pete you do nice work on your IH tractors.I enjoy your videos , My dad had a?super M when I was a kid, It was my favorite of all his tractors!
Its a good day when Pete uploads a new video awesome work
I've never rebuilt a tractor, but you do make it very understandable and interesting..
Hi Pete! My wife, Laura, and I watch your videos at dinner time so I have to wait to watch with her. Sorry to mess up your video metrics… we love the mechanical videos as well as the animal care. Laura’s Dad was a farmer too and many things you do and share remind her of him. He passed in 2021.
Great video #7 there Pete Really enjoyed watching it!!!
Impressive teaching of how old tractors worked especially the transmission situation between the years relating good, particularly to the tractors, that you knew a lot of.
You're an Expedia regarding these types of things I am so glad to hear and learn from you even though I am in a wheelchair and unable to do so because I am in hospice care now at the age of 50 years old.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge of these tractors!
This will be available for everyone to know once you pass on have you thought about this?
Again you are an Expedia regarding these tractors we all can not afford to lose your knowledge and for all of that, we must thank you for all of it.
Sincerely!
R.S.V.
I think the Sprag Clutch allows the shaft to rotate at the faster speed, when both clutches are engaged. The two clutches are trying to spin the shaft at two different speeds, but the Sprag only allows the higher speed through.

Appendix one and two both where interesting to listen. I don't think I will be dealing anything this complicated but I sure appreciate all the work you put into this video. Lot of the logic here applies to many other machines with the similar or same setup. Thank you Pete for taking the time to explain these things to us. I'm convinced the tractor will run nice and be a lot smoother to operate. I do have the feeling the front axel may pose a challenge but we shall see.
Thank you pete for sharing these rebuild videos i just ❤ old ih tractors.😊
Fascinating video. All the explanations as you go along are great! Thank you sir!
These videos are FANTASTIC reference videos for now and future generations. Your son or hopefully Grand children may use these videos to re do it yet again! And it is a way for them to remember Dad / Grandpa! yet again an AWESOME job. I need to do something similar when I work on equipment so my Grand Children can learn from it in the future (2 and 5 - Not ready to do these things just yet).
Interesting episode mate, honestly seems like a fantastic way to spend a cold winter day.
Great video. Thank you sir.
Really nice to have someone to talk to like Joe who has done this before...
I reckon you are transiting from farming to old tractors restoration! Congratulations, you could include how theses tractos and equipment can be used today in the field.

I can't get over having the main shaft in the transmition split so they can rotate at different speeds...it's like HOW do you do that!?!?! LOL but you explained it very well, the direct drive gears seems like a hard way to go about it really but those parts take alot of force so it has to be really tough !
I am in Awe about that tractor ! it truly is a mechanical marvel ! thank you for showing us !
and explaining it all..... by far it's the best entertainment all day ! LOL....i love mechanical things !
This is right up there with the 51 Buick Dynaflow transmission my brother and I rebuilt. Good explanation of a complicated assembly.
Good thing Hillary was keeping notes on where everything was to go! LOL
Impressive Pete, I am able to live through you as I’m a bit disabled.
Thanks
Very interesting thanks for the detailed vid.
Great video Pete! I've had half dozen IH tractors with a TA. I was always a bit mystified as to exactly how they work. You cleared up a lot of mystery!
Wow Pete!
Get a white or yellow ink marker and mark the bolts that have been torqued and lock tite on them. Easy way to remember.
