Kenny, great vid buddy! You're making it look easy. As always, thank you for the detailed explanation. I still find this complex though. 😂 Looking forward to the next one!🚜👍
Thank you for doing this. I destroyed the bevel gears in my 39h by replacing the bearing on the outside with a tapered bearing and not setting the proper gear Lash. It ate itself alive. I have a new set of Gears but now I got to go through this entire process.
Absolutely! It is a LOT of trial and error in getting it set just right, but I think it will be very worth it. I didn't want to mess up a nice set of NOS gears, so I wanted to be sure I got it right!
Hi Kenny (and gang) Yes, I enjoyed your video! The governor is coming along. In a way, it's simple; yet, it's complicated. Already looking forward to the next video. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed, Bryan! The complicating part is working your way through all the work parts and identifying what problems are caused by other problems, ha ha. There's not much original in this governor except the case and drive gear!
@@KennyKizzleRustyNutzRanch Great reply! And, I think this is exactly why we do this kind of stuff. Finding problems and then making fixes is the fun part. Working on old stuff is so rewarding!
Guessing that you have just as many rolls of different size felt as you do gasket paper. Gotta love the ol ways of do it yourself. Thank you for your video...
I actually don't have ANY rolls of felt. I ordered all of the felt seals from different eBay vendors, but they are genuine JD parts. A lot of the parts aren't available from JD anymore, so you have to scour eBay and do some networking to see who has something in their stash!
@@KennyKizzleRustyNutzRanch yes I understand a lot of parts are unavailable . Some OEM parts are available through eBay and swap meets, reproduction, and even some sites specializing in connections to other warehouses. Often needed felt washers and sheet metal opening felt are not available or just way to expensive. 30.00 for a 2 1/2 " hydraulic port dust seal. A foot strip by three feet 1/4" thick of felt for 25.00 and a good set of arch punches . Working on a 47 Farmall H myself. And have watched your videos numerous times for reference. Thank you for this chat .
could you address that oil tube at the top of the housing? mine (1928, #57034) has a hole rusted into it that I need to patch, somehow. how does oil get into the tube? just finding your videos. very useful! missed the one where you disassembled the governor.
The oil tube is actually a trough. The governor is splash lubricated and the trough acts as a catch. It then has drip-holes to drip oil onto the governor shaft. I don't believe I have a governor teardown video - but it is pretty self explanatory. both gears are pressed onto the shaft, so if you are going that far into it to replace or completely disassemble - take note of that. I was able to find a set of very nice weights with zero wear, and I then drilled out the bosses on the gear and installed bushings. I made new pins and instead of heating and peening them over, I drilled them for cotter pins to make servicing at a later date (which I will probably never have to do) much easier. I hope this helps!
Kenny, I've got a question when you put the bearings in the bearing housing are they not suppose to be pressed in rather than just being able to just press them in with your fingers? Without them fitting to where you would have to press them in won't they spin in the cairrer? I didn't know because all I ever put in had to fit the carrier and be put on a press and pressed in. I've never worked on one that old so I didn't know. Looks like the way those are it could wear the carrier faster.
I had the same thoughts about them, and I asked a resident "early D expert" the same question. I read informed that the bearings are a snug fit but not a press fit as they are supposed to be able to float slightly in the housings to allow for the adjustment of the bevel and pinion gears. Even the NOS carrier I have was a snug-slip fit with the bearing. Interesting how they did things back then.

Glad you enjoyed, Hyatt. Let's hope adjusting the gears goes as smoothly as the governor assembly went!

Great explanation on the governor! Looks good and fresh 😊
It's going to be nice and responsive, that's for sure!

Little by little!
