Progress report 1948 JD A & #5 mower
More improvements to 1948 John Deere A and #5 sickle bar mower. Removed the long bolts in bar. Added the stabilizer rod to hold the bar in a safe place while moving the tractor. Also replaced 27 knife guards with new ones. The fuel tank has some rust so I added a filter inside the tank on top of the fuel bowl.

Soon I will be attaching this #5 John Deere mower to the 1948 John Deere A tractor. Last fall I drained the oil in the transmission, installed new gaskets, cleaned the old grease and oil off and put new 140 weight lube back in. I need to repair part of the lift arm and get a carriage bolt for the inside skid plate.

1930's Caterpillar grader with power control.
zhlédnutí 245Před 3 lety
Trailer type road grader. A Caterpillar grader from the 1930' or early 1940's. I need to do more research. The grader number is 5E52. I do not know the model number. It has a one cylinder air cooled gasoline engine that powers the hydraulic with mechanical controls. The controls operate the wheel lean front and rear, the steering, the circle, the side shift, and the blade lift left and right.
1948 John Deere A hub puller
zhlédnutí 137Před 3 lety
Dave built this puller for the rear hub on the 1948 John Deere A tractor. Dave was the builder and the narrator. This puller utilizes the hub clamp from the tractor. The screw fits inside the hub so it will pull the rusty stubborn hub the full length.

1948 John Deere A first start.
zhlédnutí 318Před 3 lety
Today is the first start for the reconditioned John Deere A. Dave helped get it running. We had to fine tune the Battery to starter connection and tighten the fuel connections and pour a little gas in the tank and start it. It runs great. YEA!
