Just picked up a '68 gas Ford.

After working it a while - twin rake hitch - hyd steer for second rake - the transmission seemed way too hot and then it started to leak oil out of the shifter holes in the top plate.

No other symptoms though I never had a ford before so I am not sure that I am operating correctly - ie., does the lift arm position effect hyd remote. I altered 3 point height when remote seemed slow - inconclusive effect...

Thanks.

Hi. First time poster here. Today I swapped out the transaxle on my machine. It was a kinda long and painful job with lots of hammering, especially to get the wheels off. Anyway, at one point this strange bent wire clip fell to the floor from somewhere up in the machine, I must have dislodged it. Does anyone know what it is, what it does and where I need to put it back? Thanks!

IH 2504 Industrial backhoe

Got started this weekend on widening my driveway.

i just got a john deere garden tractor and am needing any and all the info i can get/ the sn is under the steering wheel [type T0650] s.n. 108221M. i think it's a 1968 and i'm very uneducated about this and would like some help. Have googled it but the sites are beyond me. I have some pics that may help. thanks

Ok who's replaced with what make and style ? I need to replace the Goodyears on my 5045D but no one has them and come to find out Goodyear sold the Ag tire program to another company now so you can't buy direct. That's why I'm trying to find out what brands are good and who has a decent 3 rib front tire in 7.50-16SL ??? Looking online I've found a lot of Chinese no name junk outside of the Carlisle Tires ? What else is good ?
