I have a deere 455 with no serial plates on it, its a very rough looking machine. I need to replace the ignition module on this machine and have read that I first need to know the serial number of the machine. What would happen if I bought a module that suits a different serial number machine...

I have a jd 455 which has a problem with the mid PTO, ie the mid pto is not powerful enough to spin the deck. I have run a mid pto engagement pressure test and it passed, I then did a Charge pressure test. The charge pressure was 250psi (should be 285 psi) and the pressure test with the...

Hello, I have a JD 455 and the mid pto spins very slowly. I replaced the solenoid valve, no luck and I removed the deck pto shaft to see if the deck was bogging down the pto but that wasnt the case either. When I engage the pto, there is a slight pause before the pto shaft begins to spin very...

I have a Ford 1120 which all of a sudden lost all drive. I was travelling down the driveway when it seemed to jump out of gear and free wheeled down to the bottom. The tractor is making a strange sound when I apply the accelerator somewhere near the clutch area, however if I apply the clutch...

I have a ford 1120 which is leaking oil at the lift control valve. The valve has 3 ports which have o'rings and there is a gasket that goes between the flat face of the control valve and the side of the tractor. I have attached a photo of the control valve. As you can see from the photo the...

I would like to run a hydraulic top link on my ford 1120 (built by Shibaura). My machine has no spare hydraulic ports to plug into. I am told I have to connect new hydraulic ports to the hydraulic pump's diverter valve (see below). Does anyone know how I would do this? Thanks Matt

Im looking to add remote hydraulics to my Ford 1120. I have been told that the way to do this is to connect to the diverter valve. I have attached a section of the manual which shows the hydraulic pump. As you can see item 5 is the spool, which I understand, but I do not understand where...

I am trying to add an additional hydraulic port on the rear of my ford 1120 tractor to run a hydraulic cylinder. I have found this item on Partsping but Im not entirely sure if this is what I am after - New Holland 1220 Hydraulic System 05K01 ASC VALVE OPTION (K9) - NH-E. My guess is this...

Hi, I have a JD 455 which has lost all power at the cutting deck. When I engage the PTO switch the deck barely spins (i mean barely) and you can stop it by putting your foot on one of the pulleys. I know this machine has a combined hydraulic system, the one pump runs the drive, the steering...

Hi, my Ford 1120 has today started to make, what I can best describe as a crunching or ratchetting sould from the rear lift. I have a 200kg slasher fitted to the back and it hasn't been an issue previously. The sound continues untill there is a small drop (couple of inches) in the level of the...

I was wondering if the mid PTO of the B1550 is 1000rpm and same size as the ford 1120? I have a 1120 and I am purchasing a mower deck from a B1550 for cheap and with a few modifications fitting it to my Ford. The 1000 rpm is critical, otherwise the gearbox will not suit the ford. I have a JD...

I have a ford 1120 4x4 with 29x12.5-15 turf tyres on the rear that are quite worn. I have an opportunity to purchase a pair of lug tyres and rims 16x6 ie overall diameter of 28 inches as apposed to the current 29 inches. Do you think these tyres would be suitable for this tractor? I have a...

My steering valve on my 455 is leaking out the top of the valve through an o-ring. I have found the removal process quite difficult, I have removed the bolts but now need to remove the hydraulic lines running into the valve. My question is probably very simple, but how do I undo these lines...

I am working my way through the manual trying to get my 455 hydrostatic transmission working. One of the items the manual tells you to check is the direction control valves. Here is the section of the manual And here is a photo of one of these valves My issue is with item 4 - Internal...

I have a JD with auxillery hydraulic ports but without a rear PTO. You can buy a rear PTO kit for this machine but they are no longer sold in Australia and are very expensive. I was thinking about using the machines aux hydraulic port and control valve to run a hydraulic motor that acts as a...

Does anyone have a photo of the rear PTO kit for a 455? its a very expensive addition, the cheapest I have found is $1,000. I currently have the transmission out of the mower and opened up and I have noticed the rear PTO is simply an extension of the mid PTO with a different sized splined end...

Hi Everyone, I am a long time guest, and brand new member from Brisbane Australia. I have recently become a proud owner of a JD455 which i purchased for cheap as it needs quite a bit of work. I started this mower a few times very successfully, I even drove it onto and off the trailer however...
