Original clutch
 

Can the clutch on an original be adjusted? I just got an original out of my junk yard running that has set for years but the clutch acts like it needs to be adjusted. I don't know too much about the o's.

The engagement point can be adjusted pretty much just like the other IH gear drives. But if its slipping it likely needs rebuilt. No adjustment for that

Download the chassis service manual from the tech section....

Thank you for the manual link. Now I have a little better understanding of what I'm looking at. The clutch does not slip it just acts like it's not releasing enough to get in gear. It shifts very hard and grinds some. I got it better than it was but still not good. Maybe its time for a new clutch.

I made up tooling to face the pressure plates if you need them trued.

I lucked out today on a parts tractor today that may have a good clutch. I'll tear into it when I get time. Its mostly complete has an oil bath air filter and a set of weights for $100. Between 2 maybe I can make 1
