Chad:

If you don't have an operator's manual, you really ought to get one. It covers things like how full to fill the radiator.....

Some folks are not bothered by 1/4 turn of free-play in the steering. I replaced the gear in the steering box of my SH and my SM and it really tightened them up to almost no play and no shimmy in the front end. You don't have to try to twist off the castle nut, but it needs to be tight. Save yourself some trouble and fill the steering box with corn head grease. I used to see it at Case/IH shops, but lately have only seen it at JD shops. It won't be as apt to leak and it lubes the gears really well as it is much "wetter" than wheel bearing grease.

Your radiator cap may be shot, or you may be overfilling your radiator. Example: The manual for a Super A says not to fill above about 2" from the neck.

I have never owned an H or M with band brakes - however, I have a Super A with them. There is linkage from the pedals to the brake housings which are adjustable.

Hope this information helps you.

mike
