Here's a couple pics of my '46 McCormick-Deering OS-6. The first pic was taken in 1978, the year I restored the old girl. It was taken across the road from the Athen's Co. Ohio Fairgrounds where we were showing, with the Hocking River, and White's Mill in the background. It was shown for 10...

We used to send in samples of oil out of our equipment at work, for wear factor purposes. But can they tell me what I have, if I send them a sample of new oil..?? There is a 15 gallon drum full of oil in Dad's shop with no markings on it. I have filled a small oil can out of it, just to see what...

Anyone have an idea what this would be worth..?? It was built by Stewart & Stevenson in Huston, Texas, according to the brass tag, for the USMC. I'm assuming the vintage is late 60's early 70's. I got this for emergency power more than several years ago. At the time I got an extra blower...

This idea is too late for this year, but something to try next year. I read on a gardening forum last winter, about a guy planting a hedge row of the tall white striper sunflowers around his garden, and had 100% success at keeping the deer out. I went to TSC, and bought a 5lb. bag of the...

Hopefully this will help. Look for section 193, bottom paragraph, lower center. And bottom right picture shows the adjusting ring, and ring lock. This page should print out full size, so you can take it to the shop. Click on image twice to make it large enough to read...

Got to give a Rave about my new Corona Oscillating hoe. :thumbsup::thumbsup: I give it a two thumbsup..!! I looked at the big box stores, and what they had. Just wanted something a little sturdier built. Saw some @ Johnny's Seed's, but pretty pricey. Found the Corona site, and their hoes, and...

Doubt it is in two gears. Theoretically, the tran's. should lock up if in two gears, thus killing the engine period, and that would be from a dead dig, and stop dead in it's tracks if shifting on the move. It does sound like a fuel restriction. Did you check for fuel flow from the tank...

I don't seem to see too many pics of D-B's actually at work, so posted a few of my D-B 5 hp. Special in the garden hilling sweet corn. She's not a trailer queen, she was built to work..!! :)

Sounds more like you are describing something like an F-12, or up... These were from the late 20's up through the late 30's. Posting some pictures of the various models, maybe one will look familiar. The old Regulars were easy to spot, as the steering gears at the front were exposed, and over...

Finally got to play in the dirt some today, and try out my David Bradley seeder I went through 2 years ago. Hooked it up to my all original 1955, DB Deluxe Super 3 tractor(Top of the line for Sears & Roebuck 2 wheelers in 1955). Seemed to do a good job of dropping the first variety of sweet...

If you have a leak out from around the PTO shaft, and not even running, I'm thinking it's way overfilled. Check plug is on the left side, up ahead of the clutch pedal, and should be just below the level of the PTO shaft. Seals are still available through Case/IH. From past experience, I find it...

I'm thinking the ones on the H would have their own lift cylinders, where the C's worked off the center rock shaft. I've attached a picture of where I scanned off what is the front page of a manual that came with my Super C, and it confirms the 254's were made for the C's & Super C's. All I...

Found it..!! Didn't even know they made one, never saw one before. You've got a Cub High Crop. Could be ordered from the factory that way, or get a kit, and put it on. 15" wheels on the front, and optional 30" on the back as shown in the one picture below. Don't know if the badge in the...

To answer this along with your other post, sounds like it may be easier to find a good used 2 row planter, then find something like in the picture below to cultivate and side dress. That being said, a lot would depend on your tractor. Is it a row crop tractor..?? ie: are the rear wheels, and...

Nice mixer..!! You'll use it more than you realize. I've got an old Cherokee, hydraulic dump type, and have mixed a bunch with it..!! With the 3 yd. minimum, plus fuel surcharge outside a 10 mile radius around here anymore, it just makes sense to have mine. Last summer I poured the anchors for...

Too bad you don't live close, we'd have fired this bad boy up, and bent it in my handy dandy press brake in the background, to the upper left...

If you have the means, you could build one of these, and build it to suit the size tractor you have. Pretty handy for hauling about anything, and I really need to get some stake pockets on the sides, for end boards. Mainly built for a little dab of ths or that, picking up a few rocks in the...

50-60 psi on the SC, on the newer C-123's ie: 140's, 240's etc, it's 45-50psi. That is assuming that it has the proper weight/grade oil in for the season. Above +32º SAE 30W, and below+32º SAE 10W. If you're running a 10W/30, it's bound to show a lower psi, if it's a warmer air temp. You can...

It is also possible to copy and paste those part numbers to like Google, and look for aftermarket parts. Or, for filters and bearings, copy and paste to NAPA's site, to get the actual bearing number to search elsewhere, or a Wix/NAPA filter number. Just be sure and check the little interchange...

Doubt this will help, but here are some pics of a model 2000. At least maybe it will tell you what it isn't... And maybe the one picture will give you an idea where the monting brackets go, if it has been painted over, and not reall sure where they do go. I tried searching CASE/IH parts for...

Here's a page that might be handy for you to print off, and put with your service manual, or wherever you decide would be handy to have a copy. At least it's a quick reference for capacities.

Finally picked up the manual for the A, and got the pictures I think you want scanned, and posted. Hope this is what you were looking for.

Yeah, as I recall it wasn't much fun... 70 mph winds, road signs literally being ripped from the posts, because of the aluminum bolts attaching them let go. Probably had a dozen of them blow off, and across in front of me. And one of those like 10' X 10' steel yard buildings come tumbling across...

I've been through a couple, and here is a pic of the only one I had a camera with me, from 1978. Two weeks of 16 hours days to get it completely mopped up, and pushed back with dozers. Had my share..., keep it all up that way..!! LOL...

That appears to be an Oliver Raydex plow. I've attached a pic of one, but on rubber. I don't see the left on land wheel, or tail wheel. The rack for the adjusting handle should be mounted toward the front. And I don't see the lifting mechanism that is suposed to be located on the left side...

Here is a picture of the deal I remove the loader from the Farmall 656. Nothing fancy, but it works. 2 X 2 X 3/16" tubing. You can't see the feet, but 4', 3" X 3/8" angle iron for them. Bolt up gussets to keep it from racking, and tubing unbolts at the top. It's rather tall, because my...

Found something similar in the picture below. It's called a Seaman Gunnison 10-30 RD Duro Pac Roller. Although this one has a Minne-Mo unit on the front. I did a little Google search for Seaman Gunnison construction equipment, and ran across an old thread on ymatag forums from 2003. If you...

Attached is a picture of my '79 Case 480C, as I'm running electric service to my new horse barn. Has the extenda-hoe, and sure is handy for reaching back, and cleaning up the crumbs in the trench. Relatively decent shape, with a dab over 2500 original hours, other then the PO apparently not...

Thanks, but can't take the credit on the idea. I saw where a guy in California was making them, and selling for $400.00, so thought I'd try and make one. I've got like 12 hours in making this... About 4 hours was just cleaning them up. The hardest part was making the eye's. I've since...

I'm wondering if it would be a Shaw Du-all.

I'd like to see what your powder coater could do with my horseshoe sunburst..!! I like flames too..!! Forge style... :)

That's exactly one of the reason's I put this up in the new shop. Have my self spoiled with the one I put in my other shop, and not going backwards now. :) I pulled the rears on my Massey 180, loaded 15.5 -38's, along with the spin-out rims, and center cast hubs all in one piece, one at a...

It'd probably be easier to use someone else's picture, and take some parts away, LOL... Imagine in the picture below, without the jackstand, and wheel. I had more in mind of it standing more perpendicular, but basically that type of mounting. Now, imagine where the bracket goes back to...

Like another poster said, I have no idea how big you BX is. My little IH 240 weighs in at about 3600 lbs., according to Tractor Data. Maybe a little more, as the rear tires are loaded. None the less, it is approx. 28 hp. There is no front ballast, and it has no problem handling the 6 footer with...

If you think it ticks you off LD1, you ought to be the guy that plows that road, and have some clown push snow out in the road, after you have it all cleaned up. 99% of the time you never see them. One time I caught one... I literally blocked him in that driveway, and it was his last pass... I...

Don't quote me, but don't believe they did have a manifold heater available. However, they did have what was known as a Cold Start System. I've attached an exploded view of that assembly below. It is a manuallly operated ether injection mechanism. The part that holds the ether canister is...

Here is an exploded view of a 5105 from JD parts page. Just wondering if that snap ring popped off the end of the brake cam..?? I'm guessing that shaft is splined. Everything else looks like basic linkages externally.

Did a quick look at New Holland Construction NEW HOLLAND CONSTRUCTION | BUILT AROUND YOU and found the below attached exploded view of the cushioning valve on the 550. Don't have a clue where it's located, but you can bet it's safely tucked under the floor pan. Don't suppose you have a...

#3 in the exploded view below, shows it to be a 35 amp automotive type fuse. The description says it powers most of the items you say do not work... At least a place to start with wiring etc, if the fuse is good.

Here is an exploded view of that distributor. Note part #15, which they call the cam, the rotor button attaches to. It slips down over the (#18) distributor drive shaft. And it doesn't show any bushings in the housing to be replaced. I'm guessing the shiny spot, is just where the bottom of...

Could very well be, that under the breaker plate, and governor weight guard, one of the springs could be broken, on the dist. gov. weights, making the shavings. If that is all the damage that would be done, it would be a somewhat inexpensive repair. A new set of springs run about $24.00. That...

Here are a couple of exploded views of your 430's Tans. case, and shift tower. Click on them to expand. Just behind the shifter plate on the left side, sitting in the seat, note the plug, #15 which is the trans. dip stick. As for the shifting problem. I'm guessing the screws have backed out...

Would #15 in the exploded view look to be the plate you mention? This would be the Hydraulic lift sump cover. The part number for the gasket for that plate is NCA898A. About $10 through your New Holland dealer.

3 pt., or pull type for lime & fertilizer..?? If pull type, I have an older United Farm Tools 450 spreader like pictured below, although not in that good of shape. They hold about 2-3000 lbs. of material. Perfect behind my Super C's, 240, etc. I don't believe UFT is in business anymore, but...

I do believe there is a pressure test port on the left side on or near the inspection plate. At least I'm pretty sure there is one on my 180. It's been several years since I went through it, and been too many projects since. I have a manual, but not here right with me. If I remember later today...

I've got small Overland scraper, handiest thing since sliced bread..!! I believe it is rated at 1 1/2 yd. I have pulled it with as little as my Super C Farmall, and as much as my Massey 180. With the Super C it was a down hill cut, in dry shaley clay. Didn't cut much at a time, but it moved some...

Has anyone ever tried this..?? I'm in the process of rebuilding an old Florence coal stove for my new shop. Some of the machine screws were pretty tough to get out of a cast iron parts. I knew I'd be putting some sort of never-seize back on them, ( I was thinking nickel type) 'cause someday I...

Is on both, or just one..?? Below is an exploded view of your brakes. Click on it, and it will enlarge. If it is just one of them, might be either #24 or #29, depending on which wheel. These are orifices, and screens. Maybe contaminated, and plugged..?? And if just one, maybe the master...

Here is an exploded view of your Mag. You may want to pull the coil cap off, # 14 I believe, and check for moisture and corrosion under that cap. Also may want to check the condensor. I have a couple, apparently originals that have a brass shell. They get a green corrosion on them. Clean with...

I've had good luck with the couple of times I tried it. I used a 10 amp charger, and water was bubbling within a couple of minutes. I found best results were attained after 24 hrs. I did some horseshoes the first time, then a David Bradley planter frame in a 35 gal. plastic trash can. It...

I'm considering on reseeding my hayfield in Teff grass. Just wondering if anyone here in Ohio, Indiana, KY., or PA. has tried it, and what they think of it. Other than being an annual, it seems to fit the bill here for my horses. I've read until my eye's are blurry about planting...

Just a guess, but sounds like the bumper spring under the governor cover is broken. #1 in exploded view below. While apart, better check the thrust bearing (#11) too, while the cover is off. Spring looks to be about $32.00,and that bearing (hope yours is OK..!!) is right at $118.00 through...

Here is an exploded view of an H carb.

Oops, forgot the exploded view of the flow divider. In the system exploded view, #12 is the flow divider, and #27 is the pilot valve.

I copied some exploded views of the 2606 power steering mechanism from Case/IH. Almost sounds like the flow divider valve may possibly sticking. Also included an exploded view of the pilot valve. These pics will help you locate these valves, and if you decide to open them up to clean, you'll...

I don't know if this will help, but here is the exploded view of the steering assy. from the Case/IH parts site.

Click on image below to enlarge it. #25 is the input shaft bearing in the trans. This would be located inside the transmision on the main input shaft. If you could get a clear, up close picture of the piece, may help determine just what it is. Can you tell where the noise is coming from...

I don't know if this will help, but here is an exploded view of your quadrant, from Case/IH. Looks like it may not come off as one unit, but rather in sections. Hope this helps..!!

I made jibs to lift the beam. Space was limited, so had to do some pretty close calculations. I used double dogged 2 ton come-a-longs to winch it up there. With the space I had to work with, I had to take the hooks of the end of the cables, and ran the cable through an 11/16" hole, with a...

The I Beam is up there to work on tractors, trucks, etc. I have 3 trolleys with chain hoists in my present shop, on an 18" X 32' beam. I can park a tractor longways under the beam, and pull the front end, roll it out of the way. Take the engine, and set it on an engine stand if needed. Take the...

Been a couple busy weeks juggling between getting the new 320 amp service set up with transfer switch for generator hookup, and getting beams cleaned up, plates welded, uprights anchored in concrete, and finally the beam set today. Some re-grading to do on the subgrade, then after the Labor Day...

I built my own unroller. Picked up some new cutoff stock at a local scrap yard, and along with some smaller stuff I already had, I had less then $30.00 in it. That and about 8 hrs labor, with quite a few breaks. :) Worked great for unrolling, but like others, I stretched with oak 2 X 4's, that...

I've attached an exploded view of a Marvel-Schebler carb. used on the Farmall A. I'm curious if you removed the main discharge jet (#35, far right of the float) and cleaned that. There are several cross drilled holes in the lower part of the tube that can plug. The Zenith has the same, as all...

Here's an exploded view of your brake controls, just in case you're not sure what all is missing. I looked at a Ford/New Holland dealer site online, and just the little T-handle, #52 is right at $93.00. And the pawl, #49 is right at $25.00. Since it is such an important item on the tractor...

If it is surging rather quickly, sounds like the governor is doing what they call, "hunting". Past experience has taught me it can be lack of fuel, and the governor will respond by opening the throttle to recoup lost RPM's, or there is wear in the Gov. assembly. The thrust bearing inside the...

Here is a picture of your gearbox from Case/New Holland. Here is the part number for the proper seal, if the shaft seems to be OK. BMB1082 Dealer pages list it as just under $24.00 If gear oil literally ran out the bottom, I'd be suspicious of the bearings on that shaft. Who knows how...

Some metal retailers have their "cut off's" section too. A buddy of mine took over an existing metal retail business, and kept that part. Great for those projects where you need just a small piece of a certain thickness, and can cut it out of a piece they may have laying around. They usually...

Below is an exploded view of the differential of your SC directly from the Case/IH site. The only seals shown behind the brakes are in the differential bearing carrier. Through Case/IH, those seals are $27.14 ea. Through Saeli Implement they show a couple of prices. One is $12.70, and another I...

A little setback to a project in the works. Had recorded winds of 81 mph. at the airport 7 miles away, Friday evening. Took out the back OH door to my new horse barn. Called the door mfg. to see if the had a minimum wind load engineered into their doors. Nope. Hmmm... :(

Thanks... Here is another picture of the inside of one of the stalls. More Poplar, planed to 7/8", ship lapped, and screwed to walls. I put two coats of Thompson's waterseal on it, for a finish. Did this in my present barn almost 12 years ago, and holding up real well.

I love working with Poplar. One of the easiest of the hardwoods to work with. Not sure if it is the minerals in the ground in E./SE Ohio that gives it the variable colors to the wood or what, but love the way it looks. Here are some stall doors I built last summer for my new horsebarn out of...

Thought I'd post this picture from days gone by. The year was 1971, and that's 215 bales of hay on our home built 20' BP trailer, built in '69. Being pulled with Dad's '69 3/4 Dodge Camper Special. Had the big block 318, manual 4 spd., w/ 4.10 gear, and thought he really had something... What...

More then likely the axle seal in the transmission case side. #26 in the lower right hand corner.

I've noticed there are some folks on here with smaller tractors, and maybe some needing new tires. Found these quite by accident, while searching for some 7.50-16 bias traction tires for my 1 ton dump. 14.9-24 10 ply R1's for $99.00. Also 5.00-15 R1's, for like the David Bradley 2-wheelers...

I've been searching for the last 3 days for a decent looking 7.50-16 bias traction tire for my little '93 Chevy1 ton dump. I still prefer my nylon thumpers in this application. I called umteen tire stores here in Ohio, and all tell me the don't handle them anymore. I did find 2, but need 4...

Seems the last few years, the Carpenter Bee's have really gotten bad around the homeplace. A person can't even set at the picnic table to take a break, without fine sawdust fitering down, let alone eat a samm'ich... So..., went to Google for a solution. Saw where guys are making Carpenter Bee...

Hoping FWJ or Sounguy see's this... Could someone check and verify, the attached picture of the wiring diagram of the 180 diesel..?? I need to know if the wiring from the generator, to vreg is correct, as shown in this picture. This is direct from the AGCO Partsbook. It shows "A" post to "F"...

This is how a 4020 was listed in the auction listing, that sold last Saturday, about 5 miles from me. Wish I could have gone. Everything he had was really well taken care of. Sweet '72 JD 4020 tractor w/open station, diesel, wf, side console, 480/85R34, & 3660 hrs (SN-268192R) A...

Has anyone converted their 3 cyl. Ford, to a spin on oil filter..?? Seems like it would be a lot handier, and more economical to do. Since the new gaskets for the old cartridge type come folded over in it's little plastic envelope, lets just say, last years oil change got expensive... :mad...

Saw this on Columbus, Ohio Craigslist, and thought I'd post the ad. Looks like a decent deal, and should be able to ship Priorty Mail, if they would... ford tractor and loader manuals

I couldn't find any earth augers to suit me, for anchoring my end, and gate posts for my new fence. The one's at TSC were either too short, or the auger part was too small to suit me, and just pretty thin. And, @ $9.99 ea., and still not what I wanted, decided to make my own. I bought a stick...

Hoping some of the older fella's here will know something about this. A friend is wanting to grind corn meal, to sell. Another friend has an old Letz Burr Mill she has had for years. I know these were designed to grind feed, but have found in other forums, that people have ground meal with...

Got the hardware on my last two stall doors yesterday,and a coat of sealer on them... Love that Cannonball track..!!

Just wondering if anyone who has replaced the rubber brake hose on their Case hoe's has found an aftermarket one, or one in an auto type application that will work. I googled the part number, and no aftermarket ones came up. Yeah, call me a tightwad for something so important.. Just seems...

Saw this on Columbus, OH Craigslist... WOW..!! It really is rare..!! Just thought you guys could use a chuckle... I'm just wondering if he really believe's that it is..?? LOL.... 1937 wheel horse!!!!!!!!!!! (grove city oh)...

Looks like I became the proud owner of a 530 Case hoe yesterday..!! Yeah, not even close to top of the line, but will do for what I need it for, and the price was extremely reasonable...!! I can believe the overall condition of it. The guy was meticulous on keeping it up, other than maybe the...

I've got a rough idea in my head, to build a fore and aft travel, hyd. adjustable front mounting plate for my post driver. This will be mounted on my M-F 180. I'm thinking I'll proably doing a lot of the post driving myself, or my GF driving the tractor, when she can... I'm picturing a lot of...

It doesn't look good... Split the 180 today to see just what is going on. Found the gear on the Aux. pump split in 3 pieces, 3-4 teeth missing on the idler gear, and the pump locked up tighter than a bulls fanny in fly time... At least the main drive gear wasn't damaged. Apparently that's...

For those interested in the older Massey's, here is a link to a new collector's magazine. My neighbor Gary Heffner is the editor. Just trying to help spread the word on his new endeavor... Here is the link: http://legacyquarterly.com/index.htm

Here is a link to a new Massey collector's magazine. My neighbor Gary Heffner is the editor. Just trying to help him out, and get the word out about their new magazine. Here is the link... Massey, Harris, Ferguson, Legacy Quarterly Tractor Magazine

It still came up when I connected to the site. Right below the registered user login.

Finally got the ole' 180 back together yesterday,and decided today to go play a little... I purged the PS pump, per Bigs Deans instructions, plus made and extended pipe, with vented plug to burp any extra air that may have been in the system,, while driving it today. With the tractor at an...

Here is a project we are working on known as the Moonville Rail Trail. Through private grants, and donations, we purchased a section of abandoned B&O railbed, acquired from a private owner, who purchased it from the now CSX railroad. On this section of rail trail is a tunnel known as the...

Here are a couple volunteer projects we did in the spring of '07. This was done in Hocking State Forest, in SE Ohio. Home of what is known as "Old Man's Cave". The hills here are solid red sandstone. The valleys, and stone faces were carved out by the glacial melt. I live approx. 30 miles...

Does anyone know of anyone, that specializes in older ( 60's to early 70's era)Massey NOS parts..?? Someone like Bates and Rice, with IH stuff..?? Bent the guide pin on the hyd. control valve on my 180, removing the cover. Called my local dealer, and part not available anymore... BUT..., they...

Been working on the ole' 180 I bought back in Jan. Got new brakes on her, and new axle seals.. Now on to replacing the hyd. sump filter etc. While I have the rear cover off, and oil drained, would like to look into why the PTO will not stop running. If I remember correctly, the PTO is engaged...

Please excuse me for posting this in the MF section, but have gotten a lot of good info from you guys... And being most of you have lots of other "stuff', and maybe have had, or seen a similar situation..., and could shed some light on the subject. I will try and make it short and sweet, and to...

Is it possible to be linked to 2 dealers..?? I'd love to find one that has the pricing shown for the parts... Apparently mine doesn't, as I added a couple items I'm needing to the shopping basket, but no price.. I hate to keep calling requesting parts prices. Sure don't want to be a pest to...

I built this forklift from a "Little Joe" hand forklift. I cut the wheel frame from it, and just used the mast. I got the hyd. cylinder from Surplus Center. The 3/4" bore cylinder on it was not large enough to lift what I wanted. I believe it is a 2" X.., I forget..., LOL... A little...

Here are a few pics of my dump carry all I built back in '02. Seems there is always some thing that needs cleaned up, hauled, etc. Don't mind loading stuff but sure hate to unload it..., LOL... Nice for rocks that go in a wash, or brush to be carried to a place ot burn. Guess I coipied the...

Does anyone have any pointers on doing a complete flush on the hydraulic system..?? This one isn't as bad, as others I have seen, but want to get it cleaned up ASAP. I guess my main concern is getting it out of the 3 pt. lift cylinder. The external lines will be easy. I'm thinking drain, with...

Hi Guys, Just bought my first Massey-Ferguson. A 1967 180 diesel. It does need some TLC, but overall condition is pretty decent. Engine runs great, good clutch, just some nickle dime stuff... Needs new brake discs, power steering pump seal kit, Generator rebuilt, and new voltage...
