So when I got this H the guy explained that he had rebuilt the engine but hadn't done anything to the transmission yet. Told me that it jumped out of fifth, and that when he used it he was just laying his foot against the shift. I could see that the seals on the brakes and something at the front of the tranny were leaking. I figured I'd fix all this as I got around to it, maybe in the fall. When I got it home I went ahead and changed the oil in the rear. Decided to go ahead and change the 4th/5th slider and the shaft it snuggles up to while I was in there finding which bearing had scattered the keeper from it's balls. Turned out to be two bearings, both on the right bull pinion; the one out at the brakes and the one at the side of the differential case. The one at the hoghead had some sort of spacer that it was mounted on and since the side of the spacer that faced the hoghead was pretty rough ( as was the spacer in the side of the hoghead) I thought to get these bearings from the dealer and replace the spacers, too. In fact, I got everything but the gear and shaft from the dealer. It was too much cheaper ($150) to get them from Mike. When I called the dealer to see if everything was in he told me that the spacer I wanted was actually a collar that was part of the casting of the diff. case, which case was no longer available from Case. Off to the salvage yard. Glad now that they couldn't get a new one - Lord knows what it would have cost. Anyway, I've got everything I need now and am trying to put it back together without seeing anything else. That brings me to my question. The new type seals on the brakes: they're a lot thinner - do I push them all the way in or just some certain distance?

New Hitches For Your Old Tractor - by Chris Pratt. For this article, we are going to make the irrational and unlikely assumption that you purchased an older tractor that is in tip top shape and needs no immediate repairs other than an oil change and a good bath. To the newcomer planning to restore the machine, this means you have everything you need for the moment (something to sit in the shop and just look at for awhile while you read the books). To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
