I drained and refilled the front axle on my 5410 last night. It was way down on oil and now I know why. This morning when I went out to the shop I had a big puddle of gear oil on the floor. It's leaking right at the cover where the driveshaft goes into the housing. When I look at parts...

Yesterday I decided to add some LED lights to the top of the ROPS on my 99 5410 open station. I tapped into the wires on the rear spotlight and ran wires up to the top for the LEDs so that they would come on when all the other lights came on. Everything was working fine until I went out to...

Since the fall my 1992 (I believe) Ford 3930 has been having some starting issues. The starter seemed to getting a little noisy but it would still start. Occasionally I would turn the key and it wouldn't do a thing, not even click. A few taps on the starter with a hammer and it would go. It...

I'm looking at a John Deere 5410 4wd with 541 loader, power reverser transmission and 8750 hours. I don't know the year of the tractor. I've did some searching and it sounds like it has it's issues like any tractor. I did find something that says the 4.5L engine is very desirable. Is there...

I'm looking at a 2008 Massey Ferguson 3645 4wd open station with ALO loader. It has the powershuttle transmission. The tractor has 2400 hours on it. Any known problems with these tractors? I can't find a lot of info on the net about them. The price of this tractor seems too good to be true...

I have a 92 Ford 3930 2wd with the manual speed transmission. I have a leak coming out of the bottom of the cover plate that the PTO shaft comes out of. I've removed the bolts and when I start to pull the cover off the shaft comes with it. I've read about how on some models a bearing will...

I have an early 90s Ford 3930 2wd. It has an Allied 394 loader with a 2 spool valve. I wanted to add a rear remote so I purchased a BLB BM70-3 valve and installed it on the tractor. After installation my loader arms would only go about as high as the top of the hood and the bucket would move...

I have a Kubota M7030SDT with the V4000 engine. From what I've figured out it has a CAV rotary injection pump. The pump is leaking from the side that faces into the engine. It's leaking from a small needle and seat type valve where the rod that the fuel shut off rides along. There is 3...

Does anyone know where I can find stabilizer bars for the 3 point hitch to replace the chains that are on it? Thanks Dave

The clutch on my 93 Ford 3930 is to the point where the pedal is almost all the way to the top before it engages. It doesn't seem like it's slipping but I haven't really tried pulling anything that would cause it to. What I have noticed is when I'm starting out in reverse high range it seems...

I'm in the process of purchasing a Kubota m7030 with a Kubota M540 loader. I can't find any info anywhere on the loader. Does anyone know what Q/A system the bucket would be? Does Kubota have their own or do they use a Euro, ALO or something like that? I down have the tractor yet to have a...

Does anyone have any experience on what is involve in rebuilding the hydraulic selector valve on this tractor? I'm talking about the valve in front of the seat that switches the hydraulic from locked out (forward) to 3 point hitch (centre) to loader (rear). I think I'm having some issues with...

I'm looking at a used set of rims and tires for the 93 Ford 3930. My hub centres are 5.5" and the ones I'm looking at are 6". The bolt spacing is the same. Will these work with the larger hub spacing? Thanks Dave

I just picked up a used bale spear that's set up for the "Frey" quick attach plate. I'm going to have a friend make me a plate for my loader (I don't weld.....yet). What would everyone recommend for for the thickness of the steel for the plate? Is 1/4" enough or does it need to be thicker...

I know I need to get a manual and I'm sure it would give me this info but I'm wondering if someone could help me out before I get one. I need to check and fill (if necessary) the oil in the wobble box and what I'm going to call the gear box but maybe there is another name for it. There is a...

Just picked up a JD 1209 Mo/Co...Have a few questions I went and looked and bought a JD 1209 Mo/Co today. This is my first "mower/conditioner". I'm upgrading from a New Idea 251 sickle mower. I paid $600 Canadian (approx $450 US) for it so I don't expect it to be mint but it's in pretty good...

I'm looking at purchasing an international 724. As with many old tractors the tach is not working. What is typically involved in repairing a broken tach? Is it the tach itself that needs to be replaced or something in the connections or possibly both? Thanks Dave

I'm going to look at a JD 1209 haybine/mower condition/mow/co...whatever you want to call it on Wednesday. The price is right. I'm currently using a NI 251 sickle bar mower and it's just not working for me. I've read about issues with the 1209 wobble box. If the mount has been broken and...

I have a 1993 Ford 3930 with an Allied 394 FEL. According to the loader specs it should lift 1500 pounds. Mine seems to be maxed out at what I would say is about 1000 (6x6 round bale). It doesn't scream or whine, it just stops lifting. My loader is plumbed through the rear remove. Moving...

I've done some reading. Seems like they have some hydraulic issues. The seller tells me the hi/lo is working. The tach and hour meter aren't. Brakes work. Apparently it runs good, doesn't smoke. It has a 158 loader on it. Is this a tractor I should stay away from because of the hi/lo and...

Hi All, Does anyone have any info (specs) on building a quick attach plate for a FEL. I believe the most simple is the "Frey" design with angle iron on the top and 2 holes towards the bottom. I'm looking for actual dimensions if anyone has them so that "factory" buckets, spears, forks, etc...

I'm going to look at a Case IH 1394 with a L56 loader tonight. Is there any known problems with this tractor/loader? Anything I should be looking at specifically? Any info on the reliability etc of this unit would be great. Thanks Dave

I have a 1993 Ford 3930 2wd that I've had for a little over a year. I love the tractor but it's super wide in the back because it looks like a previous owner put shorter wider wheels/tires on it. It's currently running 16.9x24 rear tires. I believe stock is 13.6x28. With the current set up...

Hi Guys, New member, first post. I've used this site a lot when researching various things. I finally got around to signing up. I have a 1990s (93 I think) Ford 3930 with a manual transmission. It's been working great all winter. I last used it a few days ago and no problems at all...
