Super A...Splitting Tractor

Posted by Tyler (MD) on April 21, 2001 at 05:09:48 from (207.172.73.227):

Well, and it's a deep subject, I'm going to split the Super A and do some clutch work. I think I have a bad pilot bearing/bushing. I'm having trouble with the imput shaft taking so long to spin down to allow me to put in gear without grinding. Also when I push down on clutch pedal to disengage, there's a slight load on the engine and if I hold down on the pedal for about 30 seconds, some smoke is visible. The release bearing is warm at this time, but not hot enough to smoke. I have greased the bearing carrier, and throw out bearing. I have the idle set properly. I have changed the tranny fluid to the 80/90w stuff. None of this helped much to minimize the grinding. So it's time for some new parts (Rockford clutch, throw-out bearing, pilot bushing, resurface flywheel?). While I'm in there, I need to replace the rear crank seal, it leaks a little. Should I replace any other seals?

I need to know some in's and out's as far as splitting the tractor. Any tips or information would be appreciated. I have manuals but would like to get some opinions from fellers that have done the job.

I will be working out of a car port with a cement floor. It has no ceiling joists.

Thanks in advance for the pointers.
Thanks to GeneB for some previous advice.
