I believe I have an 800 series Ford. Don't know the year. All of the markings are worn off. Maybe late 50's early 60's? Anyway, the lower rear freeze plug in the block is gone. I wanted to replace it so I split the tractor...by myself. Not an easy task but I'm learning quite a bit. When I split it, I noticed that some kind of protection plate of steel (I didn't just notice it, I had seen it all along) was blocking the hole for the plug. I honestly thought that perhaps I could rotate the plate enough to give me clearance to install the plug but there is an index pin that will not allow that to happen. I don't wish to remove the clutch assembly as it looks huge and way too heavy for me. But that appears as if that is the only way to get the plug installed. Any ideas? If I did something wrong, incorrect, stupid, (other than doing it by myself and being 65 years old) and your response will help me, go for it. Thanks - Mark

The draft forces are
