This is my first tractor and its been nice having on our new farm so far. I've enjoyed getting to work on it as well. So far I've replaced a leaking fuel line, replaced the seat (or what was left of it I should say), scraped off about 1/2 of the dirt and sludge so far.
Discovered the main fluid leak on the right hand platform was a cracked steering cover. Part is on order and I picked up a gasket over the weekend. Someone mentioned that this cover will crack because of something not right in the steering column. Can anyone shed some light on this for me? I'd hate to go through replacing the plate just to have it break again because I didn't solve the real problem.
Once the cover is replaced, I plan on changing the fluids and filters, then addressing any other leaks I can find.
Thanks in advance for any help with this project!
