    Anyone own a New Holland TN55S 65, 70?

    FWIW, TN55S is helpful when mentioning the S. Don't forget to grease the Supersteer bearing and the front drive shaft slip joint. No idea on your experience, but I just added 2 remotes, replaced the lift arm pivot seals and torsion rod (there are more correct terms, but close enough). I see...

    Yellow Warning light

    There's a long thread about a guy replacing his master cylinders (yes, 2 of them) in here. No DEF on these tractors. Thankfully. Computerized, but only mechanical fuel injection.

    Flail mower identification

    I have an old IH. At least you can parts for yours (fortunately I only need to order a set of hammers and U bolts, should be able to use another brand).

    Help with relays on NH T5060

    The Operators manual may be the place you have to go. I did some repairs and added some options to my Ford/NH/Fiat. What terribly uninformative manuals.

    NH is it a Yeah or Neh?

    I think you need to look around for local dealers. There are several good brands, but if you don't have any dealer near by it may matter a lot. Most/all brands in that range will require software to do more than a modest amount of work. My 1999 tractor did just to reset the clutch when a sensor...

    Landpride BB1260 for residential driveway work @ 346 Lbs: good choice?

    I currently have a 55 hp tractor and a cheap Indian made 7' box scraper. Bent it excavating when I hooked roots. Stalled the tractor too. Used to have a mid 50s 21 hp Case. Bought a used 6' Gannon (Woods bought them and discontinued the line) box scraper. Always worked great (admittedly the...

    Tn75 3 point left vertical lift arm frozen up

    Send your wife out shopping to buy new cookie sheets. Degrease it as best you can. Use the old cookie sheets under it and set the oven to 300 degrees or so (below burning the paint temperature; or clean it off first). Let it bake. Open some windows and turn on the stove hood. Accept the ass...

    TN series (TN 55, 60, 65, 70, 75): adding a 3rd and 4th remote to the rear hydraulic valve stack.

    Ok, final part of my tractor update and repair odyssey. The 3rd function kit. I bought the one part that is NLA. The loader arm bracket for the feed through/bulkhead connectors (flat faced connector mounts). I thought I might save some money on the hoses and also make sourcing the correct (or...

    I know this old, but mine is a model 70, though iirc, a model 71 is the follow on and a product improved version of the 70.

    2014 T4.85 3 pt hitch

    Sounds like your linkage is loose, or something is slipping (maybe worn out due to being loose -- like a D or double D connection). You might want to go over the whole linkage. On mine there are external 'cams' that are large related to the draft control. Take a look at what you can find in the...

    2014 T4.85 3 pt hitch

    Assuming a similar system to my TN55, read the operators manual. Mine details some of the adjustments to make to keep it functioning correctly. I've not needed to adjust mine, but the adjustments look easy enough to do. I would at least look at it with the manual in hand. Mark where you started...

    TN series (TN 55, 60, 65, 70, 75): adding a 3rd and 4th remote to the rear hydraulic valve stack.

    All I can say is it wasn't hard to do, plus I had to spend some quality time up close. A few things got lubricated that were long overdue (ball & sockets joints or spherical bearings). Once I had the correct parts information (odd that the regular parts manual wasn't particularly accurate) it...

    Auxiliary hydraulic hook-up for dummies (me)

    Well that was informative. It took me close to 15 years to realize my loader had a 'float' feature, so I may not be a lot of help. My loader (NH TN series with factory loader) has the lift arms as primary (when I operate both the bucket and lift arms, the lift arms clearly get 'first shot' at...

    TN series (TN 55, 60, 65, 70, 75): adding a 3rd and 4th remote to the rear hydraulic valve stack.

    Well, I installed the #3 & 4 remotes, no particular issues once I started. The first return pipe was the wrong pipe (bought an NOS pipe that had a tag attached saying it was returned as defective -- fingered out it was the standard 2 remote pipe). Check your parts in advance of disassembly (I...

    Hydraulic remote float doesn't float

    I'll keep that in mind. I have been back dragging with the toothbar or the bare bucket edge for years (and the back of the bucket) but never had float mode. A buddy pointed out the value of snow removal with it (tilt the bucket edge up a bit). No 3D printer - yet. But as I understand it, it's...
