Can I use a Bosch 3330 oil filter in place of a 87409203 CaseIH filter? In the store, the tractor crossed to it, but that number does not cross to the same WIX filter that the 3330 filter crosses too although they seem to have similar specs. Any reason I can't use the 3330 filter? Its the...

My tilt steering seems to have loosened up over night. The steering wheel is now straight up and down. The lever seems to move OK, but the steering wheel will not lock or stay in the tilted position. Does it need a shot of oil or adjustment? Ideas?

OK, so i want to attach two lights to my ROPS that will be used essentially in place of the main headlights. The reason is that the main headlights and work lights, while fantastic, don't work so well when covered by the loader when its on the tractor. So, i want to add some up top that will...

How many standard 55w work lights can i hook up to the existing electrical system of my dx55 without needed relays or extra electrical components?

Since i have some obvious typos in mine, i would like to know what the adjustments are on the inching pedal cable adjustment (section 3-30, 3-31) and the Clutch pedal adjustment (section 3.32) For inching pedal cable adjustment i have 2.95" to take slack out of cable and .20" for total cable...

Hy-Tran is the Case fluid and Multi G 134 is the New Holland fluid. I have read here that they are NOT the same and cannot be used in place of the other or mixed. However, after contacting ViscosityOil, the very company that manufacture BOTH, the above is NOT true. Some have said Case says...

So, i havent looked at the dipstick in 300 hours and i noticed some noise in the front of the tractor when driving. So, i pulled the dipstick....nothing. there is no oil visible inside the axle from the dipstick hole. I am pretty sure it had some in it, where can this stuff 'go'? It is...

I noticed my front differential in my DX-55 is just about dry, i need to add some fluid. I do not have any and i sort of need it ASAP, so ordering isnt really an option. I have done some research and found that the MSDS on the Hy Trans Ultra says synonyms of the fluid are MS-1209. Now, at my...

Ive never used a box blade before. My manual says for leveling, to shorten the top length to the rear blade clears the ground. Am i to understand that the blade side plates DRAG on teh ground or do you adjust your 3 point to where that doesnt happen? If so, whats the point of shortening the...

OK, i have been looking on places like craigslist for box blades. I have seen several regular 6' box blades for 500 and 600 bucks. The 600 dollar one is a HOWSE, which i know isnt anything special. Thats great...except that i can buy a brand new one at tractor supply (KING KUTTER) for 400...

What is the point of the box blades with the hinged backs? How do they work thats different than a regular old box blade?

Im ready to do my coolant change and after doing some reading, i can't tell what in the HECK im supposed to put in this thing for coolant type. I bought some regular extended life prestone from teh automotive dept at wal mart, but after reading, im worried this is not what came in it or what...

DX-55, 2004 model year. Just regular old 50/50 green antifreeze right? Im trying to remember if my manual states anything other than that like additives or whatever.

Can someone get me the specs for this bolt? its a caseih number: SBA010311245 I am not at my tractor and need to replace it locally at the hardware store. All i know is that its metric. I just need the size and the length. Thanks in advance!

What purpose to these serve exactly? I have used one with a ball for moving a trailer, which sucks, because i have had it turn and drop the trailer once. The 'locks' they sell won't work with my tractor since i have flexible end links. I have thought about using a clevis on it for dragging...

OK, so i have been trying to find my fuel and oil filters using online parts searches. My tractor is a DX55, 2004 model year. The numbers i THINK are right came from CASE parts diagrams.. OIL: 87409203 FUEL: 87300042 Now, my question (if the above are correct) is, why does the New Holland...

I have a 12hp B&S engine that runs really well. I bought it used, and when i pulled the plug, there is caked on carbon, it hasnt been changed since new in 1992. Anyway, i put a new plug in and pulled it after a few hours of use and noiticed a film of oil on it, why i don't know. The engine...

OK, so i got a 36" riding mower, it was free, its been cared for, so thats why i have it. Now, i need blades for it. They are VERY hard to find locally, so i have to go online. They are AYP 140101 blades. I found them for 6 bucks here K&T Parts House Lawn Mower Parts and Chain Saw & Trimmer...

Anyone know where i can get good used parts for this tractor? My dad tore this thing apart to fix something about 15 years ago, and it has yet to be re assembled. its in worse shape now than it was when it was taken apart. The parts im going to need are transmission (gears are rusted frozen)...

How is it that i can by a 56" lawn mower....you know, with mower deck, engine and ALL for less than i can buy a similar width finishing mower? Why can't i get a 56" or 60" wide finishing mower for a few hundred bucks?

To get a decent riding mower for about 1000 bucks? I know....i know...but i recently purchased a 55hp tractor for our place, so the riding mower is getting whats left over for money. I need something to mow the yard with since the shredder tears it up. I have a push mower now, which is good...

Yesterday i ran into a problem. The first time it has happened. I removed my FEL a while to use the tractor for shredding, i have done this before with no problems. Anyway, when i went to put it on, i couldnt get the hoses to 'plug in'. I determined that the lines on teh FEL had too much...

I have a DX55 and was looking at the instrument cluster lights because it appeared as though one was out. It wasnt, but i did notice that i had a few bulbs in the cluster that don't do anything. I have a high beam indicator bulb, a pto engaged bulb and some kind of <> symbol bulb. None of...

As per another thread i posted i have a question. I bought a NEW shredder and i can easily turn the blades under neath until they 'stop' then pull them by hand, which i assume is the clutch slipping. Th emanual made no mention of tightening the clutch down before use. Ive used it for 20 hours...

Aside from more information on the spec sheet for the JX? The dx has a shorter wheelbase. Both offer equivalent power output. The JX has a larger engine, although i don't know why when they can put a smaller engine in and put out the same power?? Whats the difference? What does a jx do that...

I have the FEL level indicator on my tractor. After using the loader half a day, i noticed that the indicator bar had rubbed the rubber off one of my hydraulic hoses. It never went through the steel braid. I took it off and turned the bracket upside down, and its better, but it still rubs and...

Is it possible to adjust the loader? for whatever reason, its not level or even on both sides. Its not far off, and it probably doesnt make any difference, but was just curious.

I just bought a 6' rotary cutter, slip clutch, chains, etc. I used it yesterday to cut some grass about 8-12" high. I noticed that when i was done, after about 1.5 hours, the gearbox on it was so hot you couldnt hold your hand on if for more than a few seconds. It never made noise, never...

I have a question. I have a DX55, and while its not really a problem i have noticed that while sitting still, on a dry surface, the wheels will only cut about 90% of lock easily. After that, it will not turn any further until you inch forward or back. Depending on the surface im on, It can...

Or not? Ive been looking high and low for shredders in 5' or 6' and teh Howse brand shows similar if not identical specs as the major brands like bush hog, rhino, etc, except its priced as though it was not made out of 24k plated gold. I have been told by howse that they are great reliable...

Im curious about the PTO 'modulator' on the DX series tractors. My dad has a MF240 that i used as a kid, and you had a double clutch that you had to fully engage to get the pto in gear, then after that you had two choices, engine speed pto, or ground speed. My DX you only have engine speed...

OK, well, after checking in the NH forum, maybe my high beam indicator is not out, i just don't know how to turn the high beams on. How is this accomplished on the DX55? I have two switches on the left of the wheel, one is a double switch that turns on the ins. cluster and tail lights, and...

I have a question about the headlights. I noticed i have a 'high beam' indicator in the dash, but it never comes on. Is it supposed to come on with the regular headlights, or is it some special option? If is does, then how do i get the cluster out to change the burned out bulb? The manual says...

I have a DX55, but i understand its the same as teh TC55?? I am missing the pin that goes in the draft control, it is part number SBA370910870, which retails for 17-20 bucks. I got a 7/8" hitch pin to go in but it is a HAIR to big. Does anyone know if it can be gotten aftermarket? If not, ill...
