10/03/16 I am putting a new clutch in my 52 Case. I flipped the ring gear on the flywheel put a little bevel in the new ring gear side and had the clutch rebuilt. Now I am installing. When I put this clutch in 20 years ago I tightened everything up full force. This time I was doing the same and heard a crack noise when tightening up the pressure plate bolts. I said please God don't let this bolt break off in the flywheel. I loosened it up very gingerly and it came out full but half cracked. Now I went and got new bolts.

Could anyone tell me if this is right? Old American steel is hard, but after 60 years you have to think first.

I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
