Thank You Gordon Gould ! The M-F 50 is the 1st tractor I bought used 25 years ago , & it's a 1959 with a Z134 Continental gasoline engine & she has been quite a workhorse & reliable , & the best thing I did to her was put in a Pertronix electronic ignition in :whistle: ,Points...

Paystar! I was checking out a Super 98 & it looks allot like my 50, Just bigger ! Quite a history on who made those for Massey-Ferguson , There is 1 for sale at Tractor House located in Tenn. & has been recently restored with a cab & the Detroit diesel what a beast asking price on it was $25,000...

Thanks that was late fall before sunset & it was taken with my lap top,& somebody wanted a picture of my Timber Bear chainsaw ( McCulloch)

I'm not going to invite You to play in the dirt with me :LOL: !You have too many toys ,& that's not fair:(& there is always somebody with nicer big boy Tonkas.

IMHO I think your being a little harsh on AGCO Think about what You posted,This is a 21 year old tractor! How many of these where bought new , when was the version of this engine upgraded , was this the last year for that engine version. Iseki has been around since 1920 & most engine parts can...

Hey Paystar! Thanks for the feed back on that Cat engine , Have You seen those medium duty Silverado by Chevrolet? They're building that class truck for I/H in a joint partnership.& on a different note I think this Covid 19 :poop: :poop::poop:has been just that! But I digress ,I went out of my...

Just showing my tractors working my personal fire wood pile :cool: .

I thought I would put this up dump truck versus dump trailer. I went with a 1999 Chevrolet ,Last year for the C/K series it's a C3500 1 ton dually with a HEIL dump bed ,Standard cab & a 5.7 gasoline engine & as of this year only has 53,000 on it & IMHO this is better than a dump trailer because...

& I thought they only ran( I/H ) Cummins & Maxforce :unsure: , Totally get the emission buzz kill, That's why I went with that M-F 1526 , No regen,DPF, Or DEF & it has the power I need & the old 59 M-F 50 if gasoline,But I can still get red diesel if it where a diesel for the 50. Thank You for...

Ah! That is the future Hydrogen power, AWESOME:ROFLMAO:!!!! You are gifted to have the foresight & it's a autonomous vehicle , Pure genius:LOL::LOL::ROFLMAO:!!!!!!

Hey Paystar! Did the Paystar have a Maxforce or a Cummins in it ? I went with that 1 ton dump truck so I can haul material dirt/gravel mostly & pull my trailer with it & I usally have the M-F 1526 on it . I bought it also because gas is cheaper than diesel & I'm one of those who believe a diesel...

That's a very nice trailer & all aluminum :cool: & even though it's not what You wanted , You probably wouldn't loose much on a trade if You came across one that You where looking for in a trade.

Thanks again! I do take care of them to keep operating cost down ,& I do not want to buy anymore equipment & the dump truck & my trailer I've got do annual state safety inspections on so I make sure they are in tip top shape. & I drove trucks for 44 years & recently retired :cool: , So I don't...

I don't doubt that for a minute!Remain calm & carry on:)! & thank You hube2: for your helpful contribution to this thread(y).

Thanks for the compliment! All 3 pieces of equipment are used on my property & to maintain our private road & help my neighbors when I can, The dump truck is a 1999 1 ton Chevrolet C3500 dually with a HEIL dump body with a 5.7 gasoline

You have made my point obvious!!!.& I clearly stated the point of this thread & it seems you still don't understand it & it has nothing to do with being correct.I used caps so it could be seen more clearly be seen & everything you posted on your reply is redundant,to what I already posted. & I...

Doug from Vahrenberg/Implements , Said it all! IF YOUR TRACTOR CAME WITHOUT A WORK LIGHT WE CAN SELL YOU ONE THRU AGCO!!!!!!!!! LET ME REPEAT:mad:THIS IS FOR TRACTORS OWNERS WHOSE TRACTOR CAME WITHOUT A WORK LIGHT & WOULD LIKE TO GET ONE THRU AGCO/ MASSEY- FERGUSON DEALERS.& ALSO THIS IS FOR...

Thank You for the easy link!;)

This a OEM part & it will be a plug & play & is your off/on switch on the lamp? if it is then this is what your looking for ,But it is a complete (kit).;), not just the lamp.

Contact your dealer ! & he can tell You, I don't think it will be & this is just for a OEM replacement ! Also those who want a OEM if they never had a work light when the bought there tractor:cool:!

It should be the same as the original, Look under led lights work lights Sparex & when You get to there sight put the part no. in S.118198 it will show the full description of the item but will not allow you to order from the site ,Unless your a dealer(y)

Sorry to hear that :cry: ! I only put this thread up for tractor owners that are looking for original equipment for there equipment & these are a exact fit, & your dealer might be able to help you with your questions on installation.& there a few owners that want just that, A oem part that's not...

M-F part number for rear working light for the following tractors compact & subcompact series these are the work lights that dealers install at the dealership & are part supplier to AGCO! Sparex- S.118198 & can only be ordered thru your local Massey-Ferguson dealer ,& comes with on/off switch on...

I don't know for sure there should be a pig tail plug in for a trailer under left rear fender? I want to do this mine as well but so far I have not had the need for it yet, But I do want to do it to both of my tractors:unsure:!M-F 50&M-F 1526& welcome to TBN

I know You don't want to here about this but the new 2021 M-F 1526H comes with a quick attach FEL! Have You checked out Vahrenberg /Implements they showed a adapter for a quick attach for the FEL on the 1526, Also have You checked with your dealer on what your looking for? I own a 2018 M-F 1526...

I got a good LOL:ROFLMAO: on why You went with a Massey -Ferguson GC series. The only reason I went with my M-F's is I didn't know there where other tractors:LOL:!!!!!!.

I've bought tractor tires from Simple tire & lawn mower tires as well! Always great prices on all types tires , It is hard to beat there prices! Just a recommendation from a repeat satisfied customer:)! & lots of different brands.

Cabs Are very nice & are necessary in certain conditions! But it also depends on how much seat time your going to have on it in the course of a day & a week as well as exposure to the elements :unsure: ! If your looking at low hours of exposure then You don't need a cab, & if the answer to the...

Just a update on my brothers M-F GC 1723EB He took delivery 5/13/21, I haven't heard him that happy in a while , I can't wait to check it & I also bought him a really nice hat that says on the back official owner & a M-F implement logo for the back of his country Cadillac & now that he has a...

I do have 1 safety feature on my 1959 M-F 50 & you can't start the tractor if the the high/low is engaged on the transmission& this feature prevents you from starting the tractor in gear & you can only start the tractor with the high/low selector in the neutral position. At least they did offer...

These are not good tractors ,They're GREAT TRACTORS!!!!:) I own a 2018 M-F 1526 with a fel that I bought new & I have no regrets on the ownership & I bought it to work with my 1 ton dump truck & my 1959 M-F 50 . I hope You got the M-F 1528 It should meet your needs & check if there are any...

These tractors are proving themselves as hours & years go by! I own a 2018 1526 & it's been a great tractor so far & I bought it to compliment my 1959 M-F 50 , But I like the styling of these series tractors they're kind of retro ,but that is a awesome way to come in to one these tractors,Hope...

Congratulations on your purchase! My brother just bought a new M-F GC 1723EB as well & this will be his 1st tractor ever,He should be taking delivery next week I don't know all the details on the price , But it took him over a year to decide at 1 point he was thinking about the M-F 1526 after...

Totally agree I use mine the same way, They both compliment each other.

Yeah! I know that feeling & there is allot of tractor owners that like to look & reflect on there tractors & I saw the picture You posted , Kind of looks like a Norman Rockwell print & I have 3 classic automobiles that are in my garage that I don't drive that often ,But to me a tractor is a...

If this was a national poll the 8N & 9N would be down 10 to 1! But he has not decided on what type of tractor will fit his needs yet :unsure:! I think he's window shopping for now:oops:.

I just noticed this thread :oops:! Have You started the tractor yet ? I have a few suggestions if You haven't squirt each cylinder with some 10w-40 & let sit in there about a 1/2 hour then some 10w30 engine oil & again let it sit about 15 min. & pull the coil wire!Turn over 5to6 times then put...

Do You have a manual ? These have a 2 stage clutch & to engage the PTO You will need to depress the clutch all the way down to the foot step then put the lever in the PTO mode & release clutch & it should start to rotate & have the tractor in the gear you want don't try to shift while the PTO is...

Have You decided yet ? I posted a few personal reviews & pictures here on the M-F 1526 that I bought in 2018, you will have a tuff time beating the M-F 1526! looking forward to your post & again welcome to TBN.

I bought a M-F 1526 in 2018 & paid $$$$cash & it came with the FEL for $16,000 flat I'm not going to mention tax & I picked her up with my trailer , so there was no delivery charge! & it was in stock when I bought it & I have posted pictures here for your viewing & some guy who wanted to see...

I believe this guy passed on the M-F 231 & stated it was to much tractor for his needs! But if it is in the condition he stated I'd be interested if I could see pictures of it. :unsure:

Is the M-F 231 still up for sale & do You have any Pictures of the tractor ? I'd be interested :unsure:in it.

Here's your tractor ****!:cool:;)

Vertical is the way go!Control on 3pt splitter is about 4feet high & once the wood is in place boom that's it f... a maul that's why I got a splitter in the 1st place & I only got bend my knees to pickup split wood, Or reposition a big piece after it's been split (y) & if you wanted to pull up a...

I have a 3pt spliter & have been using it for 20+ years & it's a Northern 25 ton & they don't make this model any more & I'll have to replace the lines on it this year ,which is no problem I can get them made at NAPA ,As You mentioned I was the same way 1 less small engine to maintain! I use it...

A pole saw will fix the limbs hanging down & is safer than removing the ROPS SAFETY 1st

Sorry I just noticed this thread , I own a 2018 M-F 1526 & it's been a really great tractor& I do not have the mid mount PTO I just use the front loader & a Woods scrapper blade on the rear & the weight helps on the rear also & I do not see a need for a mid PTO & it's optional & I would rather...

I do not see why not ! The only time I split my 50 was to put in a shift fork , There are 2 good videos out 1 is from Steiner Tractor They do either 35 or a 135 with a 2 speed H&L 6 forward 2 reverse & there is one from a guy down in Australia & he's working on a Fergie. What year is your 50 &...

The new compact tractors are a good way to go & they are emission exempt if a diesel 25 or less horse power no regen required or def & the torque is awesome along with power at the PTO & you pretty much need 4wd if you get one with a FEL & the weight of the tractor is another factor & on my M-F...

I would say going old school is not always bad! I started with a 1959 M-F 50 25 years ago as my 1st tractor & she is still being used today & has the 134 gasoline engine 34 HP ( Continental ) & You should recognize this engine manufacture they built aircraft engines as well. I've used this...

I myself never thought about a dump trailer. I came across a good deal on a 1999 Chevrolet 3500 1ton dually with a very nice Heil dump bed, That I use on my property for gravel, top soil, fill dirt & to hall away yard debris . I have a 2003 Silverado 1/2 ton that I use to pull my travel trailer...

I use the same kind of pump & I have 2 of them 1 for fuels Gas & Diesel & the other one for water, Make sure to remove batteries when not being used, They could corrode! & they are cheap & easy to use.

His main ????? was, Does a forward horizontal exhaust system make the operator breath in more exhaust fumes than usual & most tractor owners that have a tractor with a forward horizontal exhaust do not have a problem with excessive fumes being breathed in. & on my 2018 M-F 1526 that has that...

Also on my newer 2018 M-F 1526 it has a mid mount forward exhaust horizontal that there is no problem with exhaust fumes ( diesel )

I own a 1959 M-F 50 gasoline that came with a horizontal exhaust & I converted to vertical do to exhaust fumes using my log splitter & I'm glad I did! If your not using a aft mounted implement that requires to stay at the rear of the tractor while it's running than your okay going horizontal
