The Amish machine shop that R Akin mentions is a friend of mine and he makes those straight cage type of bearings. The wagon is a 40's to early 50's McCormick and McCormick is the only company that ever uses those 8 bolt wheels and used on grain drills and plows built at that time. Most are 16 but there are some 15 out there as well. You might find the hub caps on a McCormick MF grain drill. The bearing when wore out just will fall apart. The bottom side of the axle will be worn from where the bearing run on them, The back axles If I remember correctly are a stub axle of a streight shaft about 2 diameter and can be taken out and put in a lath and turned round and a bearing race can be made to work on that turned down axle with new Ohio at Degraf made bearings. Front axles cannot be removed from the assembly to turn but you could build that flat bottom up with weld and grind down to round again. Without doing this even with new bearings you cannot tightem up the bearings. The Amish place to get them made is Sam's Machining and being old order Amish does not even use a phone owned by someone else, He is just a bit north of SR 47 and east of SR 235. Has been a couple of years since I was to his place as I have moved and gotten out of machinery repair bussiness for Amish. And yes there should be a felt seal in there but will be shot so just use the grease gun a lot .

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
