there is a interlock in the fucking transmission

Were did you get the lowering springs?

Like that you are saving old iron. But the amount of effort you put in to get it running you could have rebuilt the carb and an auxiliary tank and had it running much faster

Carb needs to be disassembled and cleaned. This is why it has difficulty idling down without the choke.

I lime my old ferguson to20 with lift forward bonett. Ford should have taken that idea

Any modifications to drag link or tie rods?

Did I miss it and you already gapped the points?

Was that a Six Volt starter motor turning to Twelve Volts? It seemed to really spin fast.

Awesome

Real world mechaniching! Greasy bolts, rust, breaker bars. Been there, done that. Great video.

The orignel carburetor are much better than the aftermarket junk ones that people have had problems with them it would be better if you have to put a rebuilt kit in

Every tool is a hammer

I would love to have an 8N with the Sherman over&underdrive!!!

Paint color.

Looks great! What size tires are you running?

Hi there looks great glad to see your making progress hope to see more videos .

if ur tractor has a choke on it pull choke out then leave it go back to it awhile later and try it cos pulling choke will close flap in carb and keep dam out

Torque the wheel nuts to 95 lbs.

Torque the U Bolts to 100lbs

Aint got no gas in it, mmmhhhmmm

Gas, spark, air

Thanks for the video. I need to replace the springs on my 1952 F-1

You people give me the shits, you get an old tractor that's been sitting for years and bitch about spending money on it. If you are not prepared to spend a few dollars leave it in the bloody paddock.

I did the front spring pins. Really made the steering better. Havent done the rears yet

Great looking truck

Most of your efforts under the truck were so dark that I couldn't see what you were doing. Please use better lighting on your next vid.

We had an 8N growing up. Ours was a Funk conversion. They were kits by the Funk aircraft company, to power them up. I think they added about 50 horsepower, by changing to a flat 6. I would like to see an article or three on them.

Slap a flat bed on that and you ready to go feed the cows well done it so petty

always glad to see the old ones come back.thank you.

This video destroyed his channel don't know why but views dropped off seems like a good dude but he hasn't posted for awhile after this one

seven years isn’t log mine sat for 30 years

everybody this is what happens when you put calcium in your tires as weight. stop using it.

So much better with a 5-speed. Far too many 'verts were automatic.

I dont think I ever seen u install them either on fronts

Do the front leaf spring u bolts require lock washers, I noticed mine didn't have any on fronts just the rears had them.. thx

Burnt the hell out of the clutch

It was just settin there

⭐⭐⭐⭐

And I would imagine American Tradesman is right about that Engine in that Truck it is most likely a 360 but they are good Engines though the GMC my Dad bought had a 350 in it with a GRANNY LOW 4 Speed Transmission in it I have great respect for those big block FORDS like that one

Dude I'd let him have that ole heavy Box off of that Truck it will do so much better without it my Dad bought a 78 GMC 1 Ton Dually with a Box on it but I rest a sure you that it was not as heavy as that Box due to it being all Aluminum and it was not a REEFER and did not have that tool box or what ever that box is on the passenger's side of the Truck

Derek protige. 👍

The best way to fix an exhaust manifold leak is headers 👍

I've seen them old FEs run on 10+ year old gas. Just dump in some beeryman some octane booster and dilute it with some new gas😉

i will bet it needs the points cleaned.

That's a 73 front end

Wonderful what fuel does for sure

Help if you use your pump pliers the correct way......

Thank you for a great video! Since the gearbox is not synchronized it should be hard to get in and out of gears, specially if the wheels are turning. Maybe its not a problem? It takes a while to get used to and learn to drive. Ive learned to shift up while running on my old Nuffield but shifting down is super hard

please can you stop calling it a thong. call it a vehicle or a truck or a bakkie (SA SLANG) or a Ford
