1010CA Rebuild Project
1010CA Rebuild Project
Thought I'd throw a few of the photos of the rebuild project up on the Show and Tell forum for anyone interested. Pulled the engine out this weekend and mounted it to the engine stand to start the teardown.
Here's the crawler with the front sheet metal removed.
A picture of the blade removed. Lavoy told me that this is a 63 blade on the 440 but if anyone knows if it is the same number on a 1010, I'd appreciate a reply back.
Got it off the crawler.
Crawler light one engine.
Here's the lifting setup I used. The bar on the top is just a 3/8" x 2" cold rolled mild steel bar out of my welding stock. The holes are 7/16" and drill at center and 7" either side of center. The holes are centered 3/4" from the edges with the center hole toward the top edge and the other two toward the bottom edge. This gives enough clearance for the links to hook through the holes and hang straight.
The eye nuts are McMaster Carr 3/8" - 16 forged steel oval (Part #3019T16). The 1010 uses 7/16" - 20 studs and as best I can tell you'll never find NF eye nuts so these are drilled out and tapped to the correct thread. The Deere part number is a JD218 but they are $60 a piece through my dealer. These are $6 a piece and 10 minutes work.
Don't know if anyone is interested to see this as it progresses. Let me know either way and I'll either post pictures from time to time or keep it to myself.

1010 rebuild
Bill,
Thanks for the photos! I would appreciate seeing your progress. I have this week off and one of my main projects is to get my 440 in the shop for some tlc. Thanks, Tom.

Bill,
I think there is plenty of interest on here to see the "play by play" of that restoration.
I look forward to seeing the next batch of pictures and reading the notes.

This is great Bill I sure like to see what is going on...... I am going to have to rebush all of my blade joints soon and is is good to see the blade off one of these crawlers. the one on my 420 is considerably lighter than yours but I think that the 420 is a lighter tractor also. Keep the pics coming for sure.

Hi,
Yes, I think the blade model numbers from the 440 carried over to the 1010, so this would be a model 63 in both cases.
The 63 blade and frame is pretty much the same as the 62 blade used on the 420, as far as I could ever tell. The only obvious difference is that the mounting frame for the lift cylinders was made from bar stock on the 62 (open thru the center) and is made from heavy gauge sheet stock on the 63. The rest appears to be identical.

Yup, it's a South Bend 13" that I'm in the process of restoring and using. It's getting repainted one or two pieces at a time. There is also a Bridgeport Series I mill in some of the shots as well. Both have come in pretty handy for making simple parts or repairing parts that have been broken. I just finished the shop late summer. It's about 60% of a 36' x 60' pole building with both wood and gas furnaces. It's the nicest set-up I've ever had.
After I get done with all the tractors I'm thinking about building an airplane. I've been flying for over 20 years and it would be nice to fly something I've actually built.
I'm on the South Bend Lathe and Bridgeport Mill groups on Yahoo as well as the casting hobby group. I'd recommend all of these groups to anyone that has the interest.
Sorry for the off topic post in the Show and Tell section but I wanted to answer the question and I've gotten to really like the fact I can make stuff I can't buy or find. Appreciate you noticing the machinery.
