    Massey Ferguson 253

    I assume you have searching AGCO for the Massey Ferguson 253. Try searching for parts for the Perkins engine. Likely that engine is used in other machines. Tractor Data indicates it is a Perkins AT3.152.4.

    Ac compressor repair.

    You need to properly diagnose the problem. Don’t just jump into parts replacement mode. Get an experienced a/c technician involved. Doesn’t need to be tractor specific. All mobile a/c systems operate pretty much the same. The parts may be unique to the manufacturer but the diagnosis is...

    Kubota vs Massey advice

    You can order MF parts from the AGCO website, but the parts search for older machines is somewhat squirrelly. You have to select a dealer to get the price and I have always selected my nearest dealer (about 30 miles away), so I don’t know about ordering from other dealers. I was able to...

    what size rotary cutter ?

    what size rotary cutter ?

    The OP could always go semi mount which puts only half its weight on the pins. Even a 3 pt mount usually has at least 10 inches or so of flex on the top link which provides the same result weight distribution in that range.

    what size rotary cutter ?

    Not clear why you think 1k lbs on the 3 pt is your limit. Tractor Data says your machine can handle well over 2k lbs on the 3 pt. At 42 pto hp, you machine would be fine with an 8 ft cutter for grass and likely ok for a mixture of grass and light brush, although you may be limited in how fast...

    Magic Jack

    An alternative to the AT&T landline could be cell service. You can keep the same phone number and it is much less than $90/month. (Ours is $25/month.) They can also connect plug it into the homes phone line network so wired extension phones plugged in to that network will work.

    Magic Jack

    Lots of scam calls on VOIP. The calling number is easy to spoof. My cell phone provider blocks most of them based an scam reports. I generally don’t answer calls from numbers I don’t know. The few that get thru to my voice mail never leave a message.

    Reclaiming Gravel.

    Just how wide is your blade? I can turn the 5 ft. blade around on my Kubota without any difficulty. Your 2 listed machines are larger than my L3240. Are you sure you can’t shorten the top link and then raise the 3 pt sufficiently to gain enough clearance to rotate your blade?
  34. Chewwy

    Reclaiming Gravel.

    Don’t think blade weight is the only problem. Every scrape blade I have seen is curved. When facing forward it wants to dig unto the road bed. Not so much if you reverse the blade so the curve is pointing backwards. Does more smoothing than digging in.

  46. Chewwy

    I'm going bigger and older.

    If your needs are mostly for moving dirt and gravel, a skidsteer will be more capable than either of the Fords. FELs on tractors are at best a compromise. Unlikely the proceeds from selling the Fords will cover the cost of a fully functional skidsteer.

    What coolant do you use?

    The owners manual for both my Chevy truck and my wife’s Chevy SUV recommend draining and refilling the cooling system every 150,000 miles. That’s every 10 years based on average annual mileage of 15,000. Not clear why a tractor should so much different.
