Hey guys, I have a 1989 Case/International 485. Problem #1 When I push the clutch in to shift into gear I get a slight grinding noise unless I push the clutch in and wait 5-6 seconds. Problem #2 Over the past few months it has been harder to shift from low range (where I ususally run it) to...

Guys I need an answer quick! I am about ready to lay sod. I need to put the finishing touch on my yard. I want to use the chainlink fence drag behind the 4-wheeler. Can you explain (pics would be great) how to make it. I have done a search and haven't really got the info I was looking for...

I have a 7' box scrape (King Kutter) and was wondering if I could replace one of the cutters with a much longer/heavier piece of metal to accomodate a 12-14" shovel blade to cut small ditches with? I could raise (or remove) all of the other cutters and could move the shovel point in any of the...

Well, I got careless with the saw and spent last night in the emergency room. It could have been avoided! I was "nosing in" between to very close trees and it kicked back hitting my knee. I threw the saw and equipment in the FEL and headed for the house. Wife and kids took me to a VERY busy...

I am replacing a broken lift arm fork (earlier post) on my Case IH 485. There is a large stainless nut that screws on to the arm. The nut slides up inside of the fork and is threaded on the arm from the top lift. My question is: does this nut get captured between pin "A" and bolt "B"? Or...

I have \"BUSTICATED\" my tractor I was bush hogging and noticed one side was a bunch lower than the other. A quick eyeball showed that I have problems. I know my terminology probably isn't right but it looks like I have broken the bottom part of the side link and a link from the adjustable...

I saw a picture of a drawbar lock (not sure that is the right term) that keeps the drawbar from spinning when using a trailer hitch ball on the 3ph drawbar. I have done the search but can't find it. Any ideas where to get one? thanks, Keith

Where do I get a starting fluid canister that fits my Case IH 485 if I decide to use (need) one in the winter? thanks, Keith

.....they are going to raise the price .25 every 1/2 hour until they are out! I needed fuel anyway but saw several folks rushing up to the pumps in a panic to fill up. I figured while I was there I went ahead and topped off both tanks in the truck and filled 4ea 5 gal cans while I was there...

the easiest way for me is to bury it in the ground (about 18") and just unhook it. It stays upright and rigid and makes it easy to hook up the next time. BUT, it seems like it might just be begging for rust by leaving it IN the ground. I would like to hear some better ideas. How 'bout it...

...a 7' landscape rake over a 6' rake? I will be maintaining a long gravel drive and using it to help prep the yard (new house) for seeding. I will be using a 53hp Case 485. thanks, Keith

Only 20 bucks difference between KK at TSC or a Fred Cain S-2. Which would I be better off with? Both are local purchases so shipping is not a consideration. I do notice that the KK penetrates 14" and the FC is 18". Hopefully I can get a few quick answers and I will go buy one of them...

Bush Hoggin\' with dew on the ground Any reason not to BH when there is dew on the grass? The early morning temps sure are easier to deal with. thanks, Keith

I found this in my Dad's barn. Any idea what is is/used for? thanks, Keith

Why is it that the diesel tractors have the vertical muffler and the gas tractors are horizontal underneath? thanks, Keith

What are some pros/cons of each? Will be used on a Case 485. I have been using a 7' pull behind (borrowed) that works great. My neighbor swears that a pull behind cuts smoother. I like it because it's easy to back up under limbs without getting swiped. I have used 3pt's before but this is...

a ditch made with a rear blade? I want to have a ditch along side of my driveway to redirect water that sheds off of the pasture. I want to do about 250yds of ditch beside the gravel drive. I have a Case 485 and a bud offered to let me borrow his heavy duty rear blade. He suggested tilting...

When you guys build projects using forks what are some sources you are getting JUST the forks from? I have the other goodies but not the forks. I've seen some great looking projects here and it makes me realize how much I could use some forrks (whether w/ my FEL or drop the bucket and use the...
