    Another 1978 515 mystery part (Industrial 4600)

    Thanks Destroked 450 That makes sense (the moving with the release bearing). Cleaning out the grease in the cup and putting in some new grease sounds a lot easier than trying to clean the hose as well. Sounds like a plan. I have been using the loader a good bit since I got the tractor last...

    Another 1978 515 mystery part (Industrial 4600)

    The picture looks good to me. Sure better than none. 8) Thank you. My only question is: Is it a rubber hose or is it a metal line? It may make a difference on just how aggressively I try to clean it out. If it's rubber I may not try hard at all to keep from rupturing or breaking the 30+ year...

    Another 1978 515 mystery part (Industrial 4600)

    I would say it's pretty thick if nothing else. Thanks, I guess I better clean it out and put some fresh grease in it. Cool, Would have never found it there unless by accident. Thank you for the link. 8)

    Another 1978 515 mystery part (Industrial 4600)

    The tractor is my 1978 Ford 515 (Industrial version of the 4600) and the part is located on the right side of the transmission. I have looked on Messicks for this part (both under the 515 and the 4600), have done web searches and looked in the service manual but have yet to find it shown...

    Where to find pallet forks?

    This is where I ordered mine from: https://www.palletforks.com/tractor-attachments-952/tractor-attachments/pallet-fork-blades.html My tractor bucket had hooks for 1.5" rods so I had to order a 1144 rod from here: https://onlinemetalsupply.com/steel/steel-round-rod/?_bc_fsnf=1&Alloy=1144...

    Printable Diesel Wiring Diagram 2600, 3600, 4100 & 4600

    Glad to help. I have the Industrial Tractor Repair Manual for my '78 515 but the wiring diagram in it doesn't list it as being for the 515 or the 540A which is what the manual says to follow for the 515. :( Bern was nice enough to send me the picture of the diagram since the 515 is the...

    Printable Diesel Wiring Diagram 2600, 3600, 4100 & 4600

    OT Engine Hoist

    Ask to borrow theirs or ask if they will straighten it for you. You don't think they dig the holes by hand do you.. rhetorical question. I'm sure they will fix it for you if they're any good at all before letting you injure yourself on their property trying to do it by yourself. :roll:

    Ford 3500 industrial cold start help

    I replaced the automotive battery mine had when I bought it with a H9-DLG from autozone and it cranks like it should now (good and fast). All of the 4DLT's I saw had a 12 month warranty. The H9-DLG has a 3 year free + 2 year prorated warranty plus it has 950 CCA (1000 CA) so more than OEM...
