braggin a little

OK, so this isn't in the same category as some of the machine work done on tractor restoration, but for me it is pretty good.

When I disassembled the clutch in my F12, I found it had the older 8in clutch instead of the newer 9in, making parts a little scarce. Two of the three fingers that the throwout bearing pushes on to disengage the clutch were worn down to nothing. Worn so much that the throwout bearing had rubbed a groove in one of the fingers, up by the adjuster.

No big deal, just welded up an extension on the two fingers and ground them like the third one. Looks almost new. Might not wear as well as a new one, but should work. (original in the back of the picture, rebuilt ones in the front)

Cool, huh?
