I took the WD to the antique tractor day at the Billings Farm Museum in Woodstock, VT to represent the orange. Thank you Don(MO) for your tips to manage the transmission leaking into the rear end. Not a drop all day and it ran great.  Looks great from so far away  [TUBE]JM8TklBzS6o[/TUBE]

We were able to see your WD in the line up and during the parade. We had never been to the Billings Farm Museum and made it a point to go with the antique tractor show. Came down from Burlington when visiting our granddaughter. Thanks for sharing. ------------- 34 WC #477, 38 B #1935, 1-116 on steel, #8 7ft dbl action disc, #9 5ft dbl action disc, 295 Chainsaw |

| Looks like you used the hand clutch to maneuver through all that traffic. Great idea.... |

Dan, Very good pictures and video too. You have a good looking WD. They are workhorse tractors. Yours is in nice shape and put on a good show! I am sure they were glad to have you at the event. I agree hand clutch is the way to go in that type of stop and go parade.

OK one more field fix out in the wild. lol I told Dan drain all the oil out of trans/diff. hand clutch/PTO and refill it with HYD oil like he has in the hydraulic system and check the oil level in the trans/diff. hand clutch/PTO as they fill up from the seals on the input shaft in torque tube leaking to the back. ------------- 3 WD45's with power steering,G,D15 fork lift,D19, W-Speed Patrol, "A" Gleaner with a 330 corn head,"66" combine,roto-baler, and lots of Snap Coupler implements to make them work for their keep. |
