First, brace the crankshaft on the pulley side. Make sure it is pushed all the way to the left and brace it good because if you don't, when you pound on the flywheel, you will ruin the thrust bearing. Make sure the bushing between the flywheel and the crank is all all the way on and the groove in it lines up with the pin in the oil slinger. Now you are ready to tighten the square nut. I used a 4ft pipe wrench. When you have it tight, take a 12lb sledge and hit the flywheel on only one of the flats near the center close to the nut. Tighten again. Now hit the flat on the other side of the nut. Tighten. Now go back to the other side. Keep doing this until you can't tighten the nut any more and DONT hit both sides of the flywheel without tightening between blows. IT WONT WORK! When you can't tighten it anymore, leave it sit overnight and in the morning whack it again and tighten. If it doesn't move you're good to go. If it moves, try it later in the day. It took me 5 days of this before I couldn't move the nut. One more thing put the tractor in gear and st the brakes for tightening the nut

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
