Another day at work part 4 (taking the 9n for a test drive)

Nice project, I love the old N series. How's it holding up?

@pdutube Sold it about 2 months ago. Used it mainly to mow with a 5ft brush hog. Thanks for commenting.

Tractor Supply has the radiator cap in stock . Also Tractor Supply has the over rung clutch with the female 1 1/8" to male 1 3/8" all in one. What is that on the rear of the brush hog? The wheel thing.

@2LateIWon I got some kind of reducer from tractor supply for the pto that worked. Thanks for the info. That is a stabilizer wheel that is supposed to carry some of the weight of the brush hog but some how the last guy that brush hogged with it managed to lose a bracket that holds it in place and removed all the rubber from the wheel.

Motor sounds good. For the pto output shaft put on a Overrunning PTO Coupler.

We put one on yesterday. I had to get a shaft sleeve from tractor supply so it would fit. We may be rebuilding an 8N soon, or put a 4.3 v6 in it.

Nice tires, beautiful carburator, They run forever... I got a clip off a little carbide scriber, it's ss fits perfect to replace worn out clip on carb linkage on 63 Dodge panel.

We did a test run with the brush hog . It does pretty good, but we got to modify the carb linkage to get max RPM.
