    Rural man here. I'm very excited about the re-build of this tractor, although I understand totally the time it's taken. I doubt anyone who lives in a rural area and does DIY, doesn't take time to do projects. They pile up. Some are simple, some complex. It's fun though, which is what matters.

    Great video .Googled allis chalmers d17 service manual pdf and clicked on linkAlis-chambers-service manual ac-s- d17 . It listed a bunch uf torque specs . It called for 70 - 75 ft lbs for lift arm asmy to rear transmission. Looking foward to next video.

    From my experience working in hydraulics for 14 years on fighter aircraft, you should have oiled the seal in that hydraulic actuator and soaked the backup rings in hydraulic oil before assembling the actuator. Also some oil on the cylinder wall to allow it to slide easily without binding up. I would have tested it before installing to make sure it's operating without leaking. Chances are that the seal rolled during assembly since everything was dry when assembling. Let's hope I'm wrong and it's working good.

    Evan, I understand you wanting to paint individual assemblies, but all tractors, dozers and machines were painted once assembled. (and the paint put on thick helped to seal from leaks!)

    On that lock ring pliers, tap the center pin with a hammer and punch, that should tighten it up so it's not loose, start out easy and check as you go so it doesn't get too tight.
    It's nice to see the Allis going back together.

    Funny story I need to share watching this…I grew up on a farm and was a real Tom boy helping with everything outside from the animals to driving tractor/harvesting. One time I was helping Dad tear the front of a tractor off and I saw something in the front of the tractor housing, I picked it out and asked ‘What’s this?’ He said a dead mouse, I threw it so hard it stuck up on a rafter in the shed.
    Watching you put this together reminded me of that and I chuckled like my Dad did after that joke. Great job on restoring the tractor, keep up the good work

    Looking good! That original bearing is a 1207 c/3 single roller bearing. The numbers indicate the size the letter indicated what type of bearing. And for installation you can heat the bearing in the oven. 230 degrees. If it gets hotter than around 250 it will start to change the metallurgy.

I have so many projects I need to do I have a massey ferguson tractor that has fuel issues I have been trying to figure out I have a 9n ford tractor that needs a head gasket and a kubota mower that is a wiring mess projects I have been planning on starting for a while maybe one of these days I'll get them started or maybe finished up

    The different approaches to accomplish the same end result in engineering is always fascinating. That Allis I'd a marvel of engineering. Why the approach taken is likely lost in history,, but the end result is that it works and it works well. The only negative I ever heard about Allis-Chalmers was that they were had so much torque and set so high that they were apt to flip over backwards if one wasn't careful. I've used Allis tractors, but never had an issue. They are marvelous machines. Good job, Evan.

    • @tractorsold1
      @tractorsold1 Рік тому +1

      The only time I've seen an Allis flip over backward was when a hired hand tried pack a silage pile that he'd been told not to. He jumped clear, crushed the tractor. Don't know if it was a WC, WD, or WD-45. I think we got the D-15 to replace it.

    I gotta give you credit, I’m not sure I’d have invested this much time and money into this tractor but it seems to be working out for you. For those press fit bearings in the future but them in the freezer for at least a couple of hours prior to installation. Even if they only shrink a half a thou that should be enough to make them slide on easier.
