I am replacing the glow plugs in my 254.
After removing the old plugs, I noticed the threads on the new plugs are shorter than the old plugs.
Is this an issue?
Thanks in advance.
Hey guys,
Need some advice/opinions on a IH 254.
I changed the front axle gear lubricant last summer.
85-140 per operators manual.
I used tractor all summer, fall and winter. No issues.
The other day I noticed some leakage coming from the top of the axle.
Is this some kind of vent or something...
Today i am changing the gear oil in my IH 254.
Following the directions, I removed the (3)drain plugs (diff and (1)ea side), (2)oil level plugs (1 ea side) and (2)fill plugs (top of axle) and drained all the oil.
I reinstalled (3) drain plugs and was adding new oil thinking I would add oil until...
IH254 with 1160 hours.
I am looking to change the front axle oil.
Manual calls for 85W-140, but doesn't say how much.
Does anyone know how much is needed to fill?
My best guess is maybe 1.5 gallons. Just a visual guess......
I just want to make one trip to parts store.
Thanks.
Looking for a radiator cap for an IH 254 (mid 80's).
I see them priced online at $100 + .
Is there something special about these caps that make them so pricey?
Does anyone know of an aftermarket manufacturer priced a little more reasonable?
Thanks!
Newbie here.
I am looking for a rear replacement rim for my IH 254.
All the rims I see online have 4 "loops" to attach.
The rusted rim that I am replacing has 4 "z" clips to attach.
Is there a way to get the loop type rim to work or do I need to buy a rim, remove the loops and weld on the z...
