I bought an old TDH 7 foot disc at an auction in May 2017. It must have been sitting for many years because it had a 3 inch tree growing through it which was cut off, but I left in for a conversation piece. In the 1935 AC Catalog it was then called the No. 8 Series Disc. I replaced one 16 inch disc 2 years ago and finally put the 32 new wood bearings into the 8 bearing boxes just in time for the Orange Spectacular. I used it out in the field on Friday and I was pleased with how it worked. Thought I would post some pictures of the old rotted bearings, the spools, new bearings and the WC pulling it out in the field.            ------------- 34 WC #477, 38 B #1935, 1-116 on steel, #8 7ft dbl action disc, #9 5ft dbl action disc, 295 Chainsaw |

Looks good. Out of curiosity, did you make the bearings yourself? And if so, what wood did you use? ------------- Looking at the past to see the future. '53 WD, '53 WD45, WD snap coupler field cultivator, #53 plow,'53 HD5B dozer Duct tape.... Can't fix stupidity. But will muffle the sound of it! |

I ordered the bearings from a couple different Agco's to get get the 32 total. They were part no. TDH-35/ 70342152. It looks to me that the bearings are birch or maple, which are hardwoods. ------------- 34 WC #477, 38 B #1935, 1-116 on steel, #8 7ft dbl action disc, #9 5ft dbl action disc, 295 Chainsaw |
