Last month a got a good deal on a nice looking WD. It had about new tires on the back a new radiator and runs really nice. The only problem is that it would only back up. If you tried to drive foward something in the rear end would lock up and make the engine labor. I figured i could fix it and sell the tractor. I had a few other projects to get done before this one so i parked it out of the way or i thought it was out of the way. On memorial weekend my uncle decided to cut down a tree that it was sitting close to so he moved the tractor out of the way. After that i could drive it foward. Well i ran it in the shop on Friday and found out what was wrong. The pinion bearing is split and the case is cracked. The break in the bearing in still dry and clean so he must of broken that but i don't know about the case. The good thing is that i have a spare case, pinion, and differential. After having to move a bunch of stuff to get the case out i decided to clean up the parts storage building. Here is a few pics of the WD rear end and One of the AC parts isle. Matt.

Matt, I love your parts shed! No wonder you have spare pieces to fix that WD. ------------- WC, CA, D14, WD45 |
