When I was oiling the fan hub today, I found there is noticeable play in the hub assembly as it rides on the spindle. The play is too small to be easily measured but large enough to be seen. I'm willing to bet that these had NO play in them when new, and that play is a sign of age. Some amount of play may be acceptable. So, how much is too much? Could I talk some of you into going out and grabbing your fans and checking for play? How much, if any, do you see? I have heard stories of catastrophic failure on these destroying the radiator, so I am forwarned. I will as always stop operating the tractor IMMEDIATELY if I hear any of the classic bearing-failure noises.
