Camshaft Bush for Massey Ferguson Tractors with Perkins A4 Series Engines

Description

That rough idle or odd ticking noise from your Perkins engine might be more than just age—it could be worn camshaft bushes letting your camshaft move around when it should stay perfectly aligned. These Massey Ferguson tractors powered by Perkins engines are workhorses found on farms running everything from grain operations to cattle ranches. The 100 and 200 series are popular mid-range tractors perfect for operations handling 200-500 acres, while the 500 and 600 series handle heavy-duty work like deep tillage, large hay operations, and commercial farming. Whether you’re running a disk, planting corn, cutting silage, or pulling heavy implements, worn bushes can throw off your valve timing and cost you power when you need it most.

What You’re Getting

• Precision-machined to exact Perkins engine specifications for proper camshaft support
• Bronze or composite construction that handles the constant rotation and oil flow
• Direct replacement that fits without machining or modifications
• OEM-quality materials that last through thousands of operating hours

Built for Real Farm Work

This camshaft bush fits Perkins A4.212, A4.236, and A4.248 engines found in a wide range of Massey Ferguson tractors. Whether you’ve got a smaller 100-series utility tractor for around-the-farm work or a bigger 600-series machine handling serious acreage, these engines have been powering reliable farm work for decades. The camshaft bush keeps everything turning smoothly so your valves open and close exactly when they should.

Made to Last

Farm engines run hard and long, so this bush is built from materials that can handle constant rotation, oil splash, and the heat cycles of diesel operation. The bearing surface is designed to work with your engine’s oil system, providing proper lubrication while maintaining tight tolerances that keep your camshaft where it belongs.

Installation Notes

This is typically an engine-out repair that requires removing the timing cover and camshaft, so it’s often done during a major engine rebuild. If you’re hearing noise from the timing area or dealing with valve timing issues, it’s worth checking all the camshaft bushes while you’re in there. Proper installation requires pressing the bushes to the correct depth and checking oil passages for alignment.
