Mike: I realize I've gained a bit of weight since retiring. haha Didn't think it was bad enough you'd start calling me HUGE. I'll have to keep my computer screen turned the other way until this gets to page 3 or 4. My wife will be chiming in here agreeing with you.

With regards to the 140, jack each rear wheel. As the weight comes off wheel, watch axle in relation final drive. This should tell you if you have loose axle bearings. When you jack the tractor, anchor it well, drawbar to drawbar with another tractor or pickup works well. With one wheel off ground start tractor and let it turn that wheel, cut off your wife's broom handle, (she needs a new one anyhow) put one end of the broom handle to your ear and go over those castings from rear wheel to torque tube. Then change jack to other side and repeat. The broom handle will Zero in on any noise you have and pin point exactly where. You might try different gears as well.

You've got to be able to get to those plugs for filling final drives. I modified my Woods mounting with a hole through it for those plugs.

Let us know what you find. If you call me huge again, I'll take a southern winter holliday, catch you out having a Jan snooze in the Florida sunshine and sit on you. That should fix your calling me unflattering names hahaha.

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Fair Weather Tractor - by Dave M.. No, Fair Weather isn't some rare brand. It's the kind you can't leave out in the rain. Here's how it happened. I had been casually looking for a tractor for weeks. I saw a few 9N's, but they had even fewer amenities than the 8N my Grandpa bought new in '52 with a Dearborn loader. That was 10 years before I was born, so I grew up thinking that 8N was the world's best tractor. Grandpa had greenhouses, with over half an acre under glass, and that 8N did almost everything. It was the only ... [Read Article]
