Installing PTO Overrun Clutch on Ford 640 Tractor to Rescue 50 year old Bush Hog | Overrun Coupler

[@noelstractors-firewood57]

That’s a great system. I need one of those over run clutch’s for my 1951 tea20 Ferguson tractor. I have a 6’ rear finish mower that I use. And you are correct, it keeps moving the tractor after the clutch is depressed. And hard to shift gears because of the tension. I shut the pto off at the exact same time I depress the clutch. That works, but that new clutch you got would make it a lot easier to use. Great video Brad. 🇨🇦

Thanks Noel! Pretty affordable too. Our local New Holland dealer was cheaper than our Tractor Supply Company was. Thanks again!

[@noelstractors-firewood57]

@@nelsonridgefarm do you have a part number of it. Maybe I missed that in the video. I have another attachment that would benefit with that clutch too.

Great to see the bush hog work. We give up on old equipment too soon. Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day

Haven’t seen a brush hog like that for a while made in Missouri has to be a good one lol I took a ride one time without that centrifugal clutch on a 8n ford have a great weekend

[@nelsonridgefarm]

Thanks !

Great job Brad!👍👍

[@nelsonridgefarm]

Thanks so much!

The only thing it it would have nice to see / hear the clutch slipping. I have watched several videos on this and no one had done that on camera. I think that would be really cool to see / hear. I know it seems a little remedial but remember lots of guys are just starting out later in life doing these kinds of things. Even myself at 65 and having been on the farm weekends off and on all my life and I did not know till last summer that the brush hog would drive the ford forward/ Dad never had a brush hog, he used a sickle cutter.

[@nelsonridgefarm]

Really good comment sir. I like that sound of the clutch slipping

[@webman1956]

I have a 1957 Ford 640 tractor and the PTO area looks different that I just bought, do I need and over run coupler for it?

[@nelsonridgefarm]

Webman, not sure, but if you’re running a rotary cutter or something similar, I would make sure that yours has the features of the overrun clutch for sure. Really appreciate you watching! -Brad

[@webman1956]

@@nelsonridgefarm I just bought a overrun clutch as I have just bought a new Lands Pride rottery cutter, but now I can`t seem to get the PTO shaft desconnected from the PTO to install it. I pull the top ring back and it slides out about halfway and then stops.

[@rtmdlawncare5774]

Now …. Those rear tires need to be swung back into a trailing position. They are rolled forward into a storage or shipping position. Had an old Lilliston looked like this. Trust me. Swing the tires back.

[@nelsonridgefarm]

Not sure what adjustment you’re describing but I appreciate it!

[@jimgerber5520]

I don't have a orc on my 640 but my bh fits the shaft. If it's 1 1/8 shaft, wouldn't I need a 1 1/8 to 1 1/8 orc ?

[@nelsonridgefarm]

I think you’re right, 1 1/8 to 1 1/8

[@sooneroutdoors8213]

Depends on your PTO shaft for your equipment. I have 1-1/8" out of the tractor to 1-3/8" for the shaft. This is on mtly 1948 8n
