To get an exact fit hardened pin I often make them out of a drill bit of the right diameter.

This is a bloody great video!! I love learning about the mechanics of things! You explain it really well! Today I was giving my son his first proper driving lesson. My car is a manual and I was trying to explain about the difference between gears and being in neutral. It's amazing to actually see the mechanics of it all! Kat 😀

@patwatters8205 Год назад

I can remember doing this to a 65 in 1969, the selectors and the end of the shifter are worn from a lot of use. They can also get stuck between gears selecting a forward and reverse gear at same time. Same procedure to get it sorted.

@wmden1 3 года назад

Thank you. I have the same, stuck in reverse problem, and have tried what you showed. I wasn't sure what was supposed to move where, but I didn't unstick it. I think a little jarring, with a screw driver and hammer, might do the trick. I would hate to have to take the whole cover off to fix it, but will, if I have to. I have done the, removing the cover, on a Cub Farmall, which was simple, and the cover and lever were all that had to come off. Different story on the Massey, with the steering box being part of the cover casting, and the hood being bolted to that. Update: I just went out, between rain showers, took the fill cap back off, took a hammer and screw driver and got a little firm with that sliding gear. I am back in business. A sincere, Thank you very much.

@threeriversforge1997 2 года назад

Great fix! I love working on the old machines built when things were kept simple. Nowadays it's like everything has a computer system and all sorts of nonsense that actually causes the problems. Ever think of using that tractor to make some Rip Lines on Contour like Ari over at Polyculture Farms? With large tracts of land letting rain just run off, a few Rip Lines could maybe make a lot of difference for you.

@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead 2 года назад

I think you're right. We don't actually have the Massey anymore sadly. But we have a narrow bucket we could dig some rip line like trenches. I really like the leaky weirs Ari has done too. Cheers mate, appreciate it.

@threeriversforge1997 Год назад

@@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead With as sandy as your soil is, you might be better off building One-Rock check dams rather than rip lines. The rain doesn't seem to have any problem getting into the soil when it slows down enough. While Rip Lines might help slow the water and get it into the ground, that's a lot of work. A One-Rock dam would do much the same and allow you to build up soil behind the dam, naturally terracing things. Seems fitting that the Rockpile homestead would use rock piles to reshape the landscape and increase productivity! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hBCUeQbfFgY.html

@bugeater16 2 года назад

@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead 2 года назад

Good to hear

@johnbrabant9548 3 года назад

It is my understanding that there is a spring at the back of the shift fork that actuates a locking mechanism that prevents the engagement of 2 gears simultaneously. This spring gets weak through use and causes the shift fork to shift onto the wrong shift rail. To prevent this problem from reoccurring, at some point the spring should be changed. It is better described here: itstillruns.com/massey-ferguson-tractor-stuck-gear-10075898.html

@ROCKPILEOffgridHomestead 3 года назад

Awesome, thanks for that info mate. I'll keep that in mind if we ever replace the clutch and while it's apart I'll look at a few things like that. Cheers!

@patwatters8205 3 года назад

Yep, until you get a chance to replace the spring change gears slowly and precisely no trying to fast shift especially from reverse to forward. R to2 or 2 to R if you get my drift and fully depress clutch pedal. I drove my first Massey 65 nearly 60 years ago👍😪
