[purecty]

a gentleman stopped by my house yesterday and of all things, he asked me how much would it cost to overhaul a to-20. lord, i told him i had no idea but i would ask on here. i told him all i really knew about one was to crank it, and sometimes i aint too good at that. thanks guys

My first overhaul was the to20. For the most part you can go on this site and tally up the cost from the parts site, overhaul kit, clutch, throw out bearing, gaskets,fluids,etc. Then there's the machine shop cost for hot tank, head rebuild kit installation, crankshaft reground etc.I did everything except the machining and spent upwards of $1700.He should discuss why he thinks it needs a rebuild, no power, skipping, oiling the plugs, clutch slipping etc.All may have a cheap and simple remedy.

I had a TO 20 done last year at a tractor shop. The original estimate that I received was somewhere around $2200. It ended up being around
$2800.

I traded and got my TO20 in 67. I was able to get the overhaul kit for $55. I spent way more then that last summer when i had the head redone
