Built for Real Farm Work
The Perkins AD3.152 engine powers some of the most dependable farm tractors ever built, including the legendary Massey Ferguson 135, 148, and 240 series. Whether you’re running a loader, cultivating fields, or handling hay operations, this 45-horsepower workhorse needs proper internal clearances to deliver reliable power season after season.
Made to Last
Engine thrust washers take constant pressure and sliding friction as the crankshaft moves back and forth during operation. This TISCO washer is manufactured from quality bearing material that stands up to the heat, pressure, and oil contamination that’s part of everyday engine operation. It’s built to restore proper crankshaft positioning and keep your engine running quietly.
Installation Notes
This is an internal engine component that requires complete engine disassembly to replace. Most farmers tackle this job during a planned engine rebuild when other wear items are being replaced too. Make sure to check crankshaft end play after installation – proper clearance is critical for long engine life. While you’re in there, it’s smart to inspect the upper thrust washers and main bearings for wear.
