New to the Fourm

[Nolan]

Hello,
My Name is Nolan, We got my grandpas Farmall Cub (1948) a few years ago, whenever we fixed or repaired anything on the tractor I found myself coming to this forum to get answers and tips, so thought it was only right to make an account to get the most out of it and possibly even help others.
The rear main seal is leaking pretty bad that is going to be the next step. Hoping to do that in some of my free time with everything that is going on. Hope everyone is staying safe!
Thank you!

Welcome, Nolan. Lots of knowledge from the guys on the site. We have my wife's grandpas 49 Cub. They are priceless.

Awesome thank you,
Here is a few pictures also, just figured out how to resize them so I can upload them.

Welcome to the Forum. In case you're unaware of it, the rear engine seal retainer needs to be machined larger as the replacement seal is for a later retainer and is loose in the older retainer. Tim (forum name tst) does them and I think you can that info in the "Vine" subforum.

Welcome from the other side of the US Mitten! That is a very nicely optioned cub you have with implements!
We definitely love the pictures! Great shop too with some excellent hobbies and projects in the works!

Thank you
We have a few other implements (cultivate, plow, disks) but don't want to work the cub to hard till we get that seal and a few other things fixed.

Welcome to the Forum!

Take some time and read through a few threads to acquaint yourself with the Forum:

• Welcome Wagon
• How to Upload Pictures to a Post
• Forum Picture Posting And Other Interesting Things You Can Do
• Using the Forum

Don't know if you have all the manuals to your Cub, but now that you’ve logged your 2nd post, you'll have access to the all the PDF Manuals on this site. They are located via "Quick Links" in the upper left corner of your screen. Hit that and a pull-down appears where you'll find "PDF Manuals". Through that link, you'll be able to download an Owner's Manual (very strongly recommended) and any service manuals that interest you. You'll be able to familiarize yourself with your new-to-you Cub more quickly. Implement Manuals are also available.

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

There are a lot of good threads dealing with Cub repair and maintenance in the How To Forum. Located here: http://farmallcub.com/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=11

Thanks for posting some pics of your Cub--nice to see on in work clothes. Remember, when you have a specific question, start a new thread in the appropriate sub-forum and use the Preview button before hitting Submit--it'll show you exactly what your post will look like.

Glad you joined us.
