I must be in a good mood. A few of the subject titles are remotely amusing today. The first subject title on top of the Farmall & IHC board I saw today was Farm Hand Leaking, Help. The other is, Farmall H belt pulley engagement rod. I believe that is what you jump over, after dating your tractor (to marry it?). OOOH boy! My apologies, I'll behave now. *snicker*
I would like to say my 400 had a grand recovery, but that project is on hold. I had too many projects going at once & had to take my hay at the same time. Now my hay is off & it's raining. What should I be working on? You know I couldn't agree more. I would be working on the 400 today... IF I had ordered the wiring harness a week ago. >:v( Everything else I wanted to do with it is done. I do need to drain the rear-end & fix whatever is wrong with the T/A. I think it went bad when the former owner used a heavy gear lube & smoked it. It was sold to my with the pretenses that the T/A is bad. Never said what he did to it. AACH! Anyway, I want to have a few days to sharpen & re-hone my welding skills, before I weld up some splitting stands. Sounds like a good project for today. Little rain & welding never did hurt nobody. ;v)
My plans to beef up the rear on the 400 are to offset the eventual power boost to the engine. No, I'm not out to build a pulling tractor. I'd just rather not have to worry about my rear, should the engine put more power to it that what it's rated for.
Whatever I do today, it isn't going to do itself. So I'm going to get to it. You guys have a Good Day.
Mike
P.S. About the engine, not sure exactly what I want to do to it, but I think it involves a small supercharger.

Today's Featured Article - History of the Cockshutt Tractor - by Danny Bowes (Dsl). The son of a very successful Toronto and Brantford, Ontario merchant, and himself quite an entreprenuer, James G. Cockshutt opened a business called the Brantford Plow Works in 1877. In 1882, the business was incorporated to become the Cockshutt Plow Company. Along with quality built equipment, expedious demand and expansion made Cockshutt Plow Works the leader in the tillage tools sector of the farm equipment industry by the 1920's.
