ferguson to-30

I just bought a decent TO-30. The specs say that is has a positive ground off the 6 volt battery. The tractor I just bought has negative gounding. The engine starts well. Is this possible?

I have a chance to purchase a 1954 TO-30 that the owner claims it has a steering 'issue' turning to the right. He claims a steering box can be had for $350. Sooo... Does that sound true? I could find no such animal on a quick online search. Are these difficult for a non mechanic type to work on...

My to-30 is low on tranny fluid and I'm not sure exactly what kind to use. I've read that the ford 90 from TSC will work. I don't know this to be fact. I read it somewhere. Is this correct? And is there any type available from an auto part store? I'm in florida so cold isn't an issue. Any help...

I have a 51 Ferguson TO-30 that was purchased new by a neighbor - It runs and has several attachments. How would I determine a fair selling price ? Thanks, B.K. Brown

My dad bought a Ferguson TO-30 new in 1952. He also purchased a new set of 2-row equipment including a front mounted cultivator, planter (corn, cotton, and milo), and buster. The color of the equipment was blue. I still have some of the parts of the front mounted frame and planter boxes and...

Looking for some advice... I'm looking at a Harry Ferguson TO-30 tractor with an aftermarket attachment. The attachment is a Mid-Western Davis backhoe and loader.... Only the backhoe seems to attach to the loader arms. It's a strange contraption but I think it may serve my needs to do some...

Wondering what I am "in for." When I start my Ferguson TO-30 for the first time of the day and let my foot off of the clutch I somewhat soft groaning / low pitch whine. After it has been running a while it does not do it. Am I hearing a throw out bearing? a bushing? The plates. The Clutch...

Hello Friends, I am in the middle of an oil change on the ol' TO-30, getting ready for spring. The oil filter canister had a little sludge in it. Im thinking about dropping the pan and giving it a good clean. Ive never done it on a tractor before. I dropped the pan on my Chevy LUV truck way...

Looking at this Ferguson TO-30 and wondering about the availability of parts. From a quick search online it looks like it could be a problem. Any comments? TIA...Chris

Hi I have a TO-30 tractor and need some information, we just bought a service manual and parts manual but it didn't help. On top of and in the upper right hand corrner there are two rods coming out of the top of the hydraulic cover plate, the back rod is spring loaded held in the up position by...

Anyone have any tips about troubleshooting a problem with a TO-30 governor? Less than 500 tractor hours ago I replaced the governor assembly with a Novi ball type governor. All has been fine until today, when my neighbor borrowed the tractor to do some bushhogging. After about 30 minutes the...

At least I think that is what it is. Can you tell me more about it? I'd like to do some light farm work with it like moving round bales around, moving manure and york raking. Will this tractor be okay? Right now I think it's only running on 2 cylinders and I'm having it go for a tune up and...
