New to group, not tractors.

Postby TractorDawg » Mon Jan 24, 2022 2:12 pm

I'm a 1963 model just like my current winter project (17705 J ) '63 square nose. I've been lucky enough to have had the opportunity to work on old stuff since I could hold a wrench. I am in central Va. with my very understanding and patient wife who along with our Boxer often wonder what that loud noise was. I have a problem with not being able to stay focused on the original task at hand. A prime example is my current situation. They called for weather two weeks ago. Being from Upstate N.Y. I figured it would be a good time to "chain up" and do some PM. I noticed the lights still didn't work and said this is the year LOL. This resulted in a complete rewiring including switches, fuse holder. relocating the pos. gnd. to the seat frame VR and amp meter.. Well that required taking off the sheet metal which is now being sanded down to bare metal for paint .As we all know you can't put shiny new sheet metal on and old yellow tractor....

Welcome to the Forum! I grew up the same way, always taking something apart. Good luck with your project!

Thanks, I'm glad I stumbled cross this group. I've already learned a bunch, so I figured it was time to enter the party.

Welcome to the forum. There is a lot of Cub info in this group.
There are two ways to get enough Cubs. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.

I could not say tractor when I was 2 years old so I called it Err Err.

I loved this tractor then and I still love it now.

Welcome to the Forum!

If you haven't already, take some time and read through a few threads to acquaint yourself with the Forum:

You may have already found them, but now that you’ve logged more than 2 posts on the Forum, you'll have access to the all the PDF Manuals on this site. There’s a few ways to do that:
  • From a desktop or laptop, go to "Quick Links" in the upper left corner of your screen. Hit that and a pull-down appears where you'll find "PDF Manuals".
  • You can also go to “Cub Info” in the upper toolbar, then hit “Rudi’s Manuals”. From there, you can access a variety of information.
  • If you're using a phone, go to the "Links Directory" (second category down the main page). Once in "Links Directory" , scroll down to the second section "Tractor Parts & Manuals" and you'll find them there.


We’d encourage you to take the Safety Test located in the Safety Forum: http://farmallcub.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=68084

Take some pictures and post them. We like pictures!

Remember:
  • Pictures are limited to 500 KB file size. Use an image reducer app or program to downsize pics.
  • When you have a specific question, start a new thread in the appropriate sub-forum.
  • Before posting, use the Preview button before hitting Submit--it'll show you exactly what your post will look like, including pictures.
  • When adding your comments to a thread, be sure to look at the date of the last poster. If it’s more than a 6 months old, the posters are probably not going to see it. Consider starting a new thread.

Glad you joined us.
