Re: 1946 B.F. Avery Model A Tractor Restoration
Eric graciously came over to the house on a Saturday with the motor hoist so we could go about the business of giving the old girl her lump back. It was funny that I could find NOS rubber bushings, but struck out on output shaft/clutch assembly bearings. All with good numbers on them. Luckily (like a lot of things on this tractor) the originals were solid as a rock and were good to go with a clean up. The bell housing is not only a mounting point, it also is the back wall of the oil pan (I guess you just have to keep adding oil to keep oil in this thing). Fly wheel on (after trying it once 180 off), then clutch, pressure plate (Rebuilt by Clutch Dynamics in Lansing) and output shaft assembly. And finally the clutch cover.
