1-F36 Disc restoration

[Slim140]

First off thanks to Jim Becker for identifying this disc for me.

This disc belonged to a guy I knew named Tump, he passed away a couple years ago and I acquired it through a mutual friend.

The rear disc have been replaced at some point, the fronts are worn out. I plan to fix it, paint it, and use it behind a 140 in our garden.

Got some new scalloped disc for the front, the axles look pretty rough but I can weld them up and grind them to usable.

Found a few ants in the first one as well.

These worn out disc are IH, assuming original.

I have the same disc- restored before i purchased it. It does a wonderful job following my 2-bottom plow. The downforce from the fast hitch on the 140 really makes it dig in.

Hopefully this thick washer will hold. I welded an axle like this once and it didn’t hold long but it was on a larger disc.

Got one side together and put new grease fittings in. I’ll try it out before painting it.

The nut on the other axle was stuck. Had to use the hot wrench to get it off and a few threads came out of it. Made a new one 1/4” thicker to catch more threads. I’ll tighten them up when I get them back on and can get more pressure on them.

One of the brackets was twisted. Used the press and got it back straight.
