That looks like some heavy work that one would not want to get in a hurry with. Satisfaction in preserving a nice collector tractor. Too bad about that first seal, it sure looked like it was going in alright.
hello from the stormy wet Ozarks Vernon!!! got er seal done!!! yep those wheels and hubs are heavy but its a tractor!! looking forward to u finishing this wheel and start on the other!! mite have to get the wife from the tiller so she can help u. 3 hands is handy!! tight lines and cheers!!!
That's pretty good the way you can figure things out as you go. The inside look fairly clean. Not rusty. To bad the seal got messed up.I thought the pipe was going to work. Sometimes things happen.
Gotta love those ratchet wrenches. This coming May will be 5 years that I've quit smoking. I agree those linings look pretty good. That seal was a little pain in the butt. Lol.... Look forward to the completion of the project.
Well done, that was a job Vernon, your jack set-up let me think of my effort with the Farmall, the only difference is I quite the job because the wheel hold on to the axis and the jack set up to flimsy for comfort
I’ve been trying to get the brake drum off I’m gonna try your way between the brake drum have a trumpet of primer out been buying it with a hammer and can’t get it to break loose so you just gave me another way to work on it
My dad and I took the back wheel off his Massy Ferguson. I tried to move it by myself but it was too heavy for one person to move. It started to fall on me so I tried to jump out of the way and it knocked me over and pinned my foot to the ground. My dad couldn't lift it and had to use 2x4s to pry it up to get it off me. Lucky it didn't break my leg.
I just got a ford 8N only to find out it a 9N but still a great tractor . but at the end of rear axle is a nut that holds it all together .. I mite be able to take off the bolts off the back of break housing off the axle so it comes off as one .. Because it leaking oil
boy you know it, I'm waiting for someone like you that is a pro to put out a video showing exactly how to do it... oh, wait,, you can't, you don't have a channel... and I was so looking forward to you teaching me how an expert does it...
@@MissouriOldTimer The Hack. Folks think those sure seals are the end all to the problem they are not. The original issue is the outer seals are leaking. It’s believed packing them with grease and covering up that mess with a SS is the fix. The proper repair is to replace the original seals. Its quite a job to replace those seals that takes special tools are a torch to cut out the wheel bearing. Once the wheel bearing has been cut you will need a new bearing. The next option is to make a tool to pull the hub and bearing saving the parts. You would need a press and a good press at that. It only takes one drop of oil on a brake shoe to fudge them up heating them will not remove the oil. Trash the shoes and replace with new. Doing a seal/brake job on a 9/2N is quite a project why haft arse it ? In the hack DIY world your repair is famed as the real deal it’s not period.

I thought so too at first, but on the edge it curled up part of the outer seal area so I didn't want to trust it.

well, she did try but it was more than the both of us wanted to handle, but we got it done.
That looked like a difficult job. Great job getting it done. Working on smaller tractors seem like less of a workout
yes they are, this axle and brake drum had to come out as one piece so it was very heavy.

sometimes if one way to skin a cat don't work, we have to try another way.. lol
@@MissouriOldTimer That is for sure.

yes, it's not the easiest thing but now that I understand how it's supposed to work it better.
That looks like a quite a job! It’s going to be fun to see all you do to it!
this is the first time I ever did one of these so it's kind of a learning thing for me.
Well done, that was a job Vernon, your jack set-up let me think of my effort with the Farmall, the only difference is I quite the job because the wheel hold on to the axis and the jack set up to flimsy for comfort
yes, there's no real good way to support the axle when you are working on the ground and no substantial support to put the jack on.
I’ve been trying to get the brake drum off I’m gonna try your way between the brake drum have a trumpet of primer out been buying it with a hammer and can’t get it to break loose so you just gave me another way to work on it
The brake shoes might be pressing against the brake drum. There is a brake adjuster you might need to ajust.
Thanks for sharing and keep em coming Vernon.
thank you, I've still got a ways to go.
That's a major job right there. Good work.
I wouldn't want to lift that axle assembly very long every day.lol
Thanks for the video. This has been a big help for me.
you are welcome, glad you got something out of it,, thanks for watching.
I have the same tractor. Thanks for subscribing! Dave.
I don't guess I really need one but we do have a little to use one for on the lots we bought next door.

they are heavy I tried to keep the tire straight up or it could have gotten away from me.
That jack situation is sketchy to say the least😆

yes, the 2n and 9 n are different from the 8n, in that the rear hubs are very heavy because more has to come off to get to the seals and brakes.
Are those sure seals?
actually I don't remember what they were, it's been a while.
it seems we're always being tested.
yes but I guess that's the fun of it.. it looks like your project is coming along good, nice scenery .
lol, thanks, done with it, can only do so much in a little place.
Cool
thank you.
I think you would have had it with the pvc pipe if you just cleaned the pipe out first. You got it done and that's what matters.
yes that pipe had been up in the "loft" of my old shed for who knows how long. but the last way seemed to work better.
please re rig that jack your going to loose a foot or a leg.good job
it was fine,
What a hack job.
boy you know it, I'm waiting for someone like you that is a pro to put out a video showing exactly how to do it... oh, wait,, you can't, you don't have a channel... and I was so looking forward to you teaching me how an expert does it...
