1st picture is the cam follower
pin out of my Ford 960. Odd that I
had lift issues!?! Not a horrible
thing to fix if you have friends
to help. 2 nd picture is the
friction disk under throttle
linkage on our Ford 640. Had to
hold the throttle open or it would
go right back to idle. Few dollars
in parts. Couple phone calls. Post
on here , got wife to help and 2
tractors up and going! 3rd picture
is our cheat, we stuck some wood
dowels in bolt holes to hold
gasket in place while we wrestled
top cover back on. Last picture is
how we got worn pin out. Big
thanks to Mr Silver in NE Alabama.
He was nice enough to answer the
phone ( twice) and walk us through
the process of adjustments.you can
meet the nicest folks at tractor
shows!!

I've never used wood for dowel pins but have an assortment of bolts with the heads cut off and a screwdriver slot cut in the end they are very handy for fitting two assemblies together
 
Mine got to the point it wouldn't lift unless you pulled up on draft control lever. Then it would go all the way up ,but would randomly drop all the way down. Hard to do anything. Not a bad fix. Parts easy to order from Dennis carpenter. Email if you tackle it ,I will help if I can.
