been surfaced. This is a 2N, btw. The flywheel still has a full bevel on the edge and it measures .926" thick from the ring gear. I saw some archives stuff about a guy says his was at .87" and the FO-4 says minimum is .855". I'm not positive how you measure the flywheel thickness. I don't know if you include the ring gear or what. The wear on it now is light to medium. No blue high spots and a guy might get away with out surfacing. In fact, I'm not replacing the friction plate so I'm not going to resurface the flywheel.
Must be the finger height is fouled up.

If you measure the flywheel from the surface on the id, there where the bolts go through into the crankshaft flange then this flywheel is way under minimum.
The clutch shows little to no wear; like I said some of the printing is still on the one surface; the flywheel side. The pressure plate is smooth but has a slight ridge on the inside so it has some wear.
The clutch was adjusted all the way on the clevis, there wasn't any more.
This has a Sherman and maybe that has the shifter fork moved away from the clutch. Maybe that spacing can be wrong. Something isn't right, this clutch should have a ton of adjustment.

Rob, there is only one adjustment for the clutch.I suspect the pin that holds your fork on the clutch shaft [on the inside] or either the pin that holds the clutch adjusting arm on the the outside is sheared.Check both those parts with some resistance to make sure they are working proper.Check real close. don

 Some farmer been wrenchin on it in reply to don b, 09-29-2004 11:20:44  
You were on to it Don. The shifter fork was held on with a double-nutted 5/16" bolt. The hole through the shaft is wallowed out and there was 1/2" slop in the travel of the throw-out bearing. The bolt was bent.
Shouldn't be any big deal to bush it.

 I don't know if it took a leadfoot. in reply to Dell (WA), 09-30-2004 15:31:01  
On that 2N the clutch pedal also operates the brake.
I learned a few things about the clutch while I was about it. I learned a close inspection of the shifter fork, the shaft, and the shaft bushings must be part of replacing a clutch. I imagine the right-side shaft bushing will need replaced with the clutch. This one sure needs a bushing. $5 split bushing...cheap. You want the far end of the shaft held tight or everything gets turned cocked when you push on the pedal. That and a leadfoot and you're doomed to ruin the $15 shaft, the $15 throw-out bearing plus the $2 pin.
Not to mention replacing the clutch doesn't fix nothing. I bet that's how this new clutch ended up in here. The old clutch wasn't bad but he missed this shaft problem. Must have bummed him to change that clutch and end up with no adjustment.

Rob, glad you found the problem.You are correct about checking the other parts as well.I don't like halving a tractor two or three times either.It's amazing what and how fast we learn while working on these tractors.Just been there and done that like you and many others have done. don
