Farmall C front pulley

HSE

Member
What holds the pulley on the front of the crankshaft on a Farmall C? I looked it up in the parts manual, but did not find anything.

Putting one of those projects together that was taken apart ten years ago and been setting in the corner of the shop.

Thanks for any help
 
Tension fit.

When you're ready to put it on, have the tractor near the house and send the missus to the county seat for a tube of relative bearing grease and two 6" postholes -- anything that will keep her away for a while.

Clean the end of the crank pulley up well with brake cleaner or whatever you have that doesn't leave any residue to smell up the place and pop it in the oven at about 250 for an hour or so. Use oven mitts and RUN (like the wife is just pulling into the driveway) to the tractor with it. Line it up with the key and should slide right on. Hold it there for the short time it will take to shrink onto the end of the crank. Some will take a quick rap with a rubber mallet to go the last little bit (don't beat too hard or too long, you can mar the thrust faces on the mains), or there is a thread in the end of the crank that allows you to stack a couple of washers under a bolthead to finish drawing it on.

Have a batch of cookie dough handy to throw in the oven to make the place smell like fresh cookies in case there was any oil or grease left on the pulley.
 
Thanks for the replies!

Always fun to know your looking for parts (bolts) that don't even exist!

I thought I was they only one with a wife like that! :)
 
LOL!

I too waited, until the redhead was at work for the day.
One of those "what she doesn't know, won't aggravate her" things!

Did the same thing with the ring gear. =:)
