These old tractors can be so blasted exasperating! I messed with the Super 55 Friday afternoon getting the steering box put together,then yesterday afternoon when I got home from an auction timing the gears and arms on it,then an hour this morning putting the gas tank on and stitching things up so I could get it out of the way to get the 1365 in and drop the transfer case out to put a new snap ring in it.
I drove the 55 around the yard and everything worked OK except that it was toed in a little. After I got the 1365 done,I adjusted the toe in and took it out again. It wouldn't turn left all the way. I backed it in,jacked the front wheels up and turned it around,then it completely locked up. I've got a strong suspicion that one or two of those little balls in the worm gear and nut rolled up and over the top where they didn't belong when I was trying to get them all in and now they're wedged tight. The shaft was lifting up some when I was trying it,so I wouldn't be shocked if I've messed up another one of those $24 bearings.

It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
