Crank pulley removal tool
My Son and I are working on a 48" cub project and it's running pretty well.
We have rebuilt the Magneto and the static time tutorial worked great.
Starting is not a problem now that I have switched to the Champion plugs for a cub that burns a little oil.
Changed all the fluids but seem to have the front seal behind the crank pulley seeping oil.
I need to build the floor stands that are made from the trailor jack stands but need help with the pulley removal.
Any suggestion on how to make, purchase or borrow a puller so we can keep our cub from leaking oil on the floor?
Thanks for all the great information found in this forum.

Re: Crank pulley removal tool
The HOW TO section has a simple version:
viewtopic.php?f=141&t=44517
A forum member used to make a puller that used a small bottle jack, which worked very well. Maybe someone near you has one you can borrow?
Just saw you are only an hour from Harrison, Ohio, where Barnyard is having a CubFest next month. If you haven't done the front seal by then, it would be a great opportunity to get help with it and meet some really nice forum folks!
Good luck!

Re: Crank pulley removal tool
Scott,
Welcome to the forum. Williamsburg is only an hour away from the Shallow Creek Farm CubFest on October 15, 16, and 17 in Harrison, OH. Lots of knowledgeable Cub folks there to assist with repairs, and good food. Haul your Cub over there and your front seal repair will happen in record time. You will need to have the parts necessary for your repair(s) in hand.
What is a CubFest, you ask? Take a look here:
http://farmallcub.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=87593
If you can't bring your Cub, come on over anyway, you will be glad you did.
Bill

Re: Crank pulley removal tool
Search function. Crankshaft pulley puller. Several ideas there.
Above all do not try to use a 2 or 3 jaw puller on the pulley. You need the backing plate to keep from breaking the pulley.

Re: Crank pulley removal tool
Scott, by all means, bring your Cub to the CubFest in October. I have the splitting stands as well as the pulley puller to get the job done. I will send you a PM with my phone number.
There are two ways to get enough Cubs. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.

Re: Crank pulley removal tool
Wow thanks for the offer!
I will definitely get the parts in order.
Anything else I should address while we are in there?
I have a used from axle as I have found repair welds and cracks so it needs to be replaced.

Re: Crank pulley removal tool
Scott,
Plan in getting the front seal and speedy sleeve. Most likely the pulley has some wear on it.
You may want to consider doing the rear seal as well.

Re: Crank pulley removal tool
TM Tractors (forum sponsor with link at the bottom of the page) offers the front seal WITH the wear sleeve.
http://www.tmtractor.com/new/en/472fp.htm
There is also a HOW TO for an installation tool for the wear sleeve:

Re: Crank pulley removal tool
Spoke with bill last night and I think I will have both parts on hand seal and speedy sleeve.
Once pulley is removed we can determine what is needed.
Is the speedy sleeve worth it or just replace the pulley?
Anything else I should look into replacing while the front end is off the tractor?

Re: Crank pulley removal tool
New radiator hoses & clamps, and flush system.
Oil fan
Check/replace belts
Is steering tight and not leaking?
Solder in new overflow tube...TM Tractors has them
Clean air cleaner and crankcase breather tube...nearly impossible when tractor is assembled
Check/replace gov seal
Oh, and because I have such a case of OCD, a selection of wire brushes to clean everything up before reassembly!!!

Yes, the speedy sleeve is worth having since you can't see the wear until you remove the pulley. Any used pulley that you buy would most likely need the sleeve.

Re: Crank pulley removal tool
Looks like the seal and speedy sleeve runs $32 buck and new pulley $42-48. $10-15 Difference would I be better off to just get the pulley over the speedy sleeve.
