    Inherited a good one... I hope...

    The air intake is a good 2 and half feet tall (when I tried to put upright) so I don't think she's a vineyard model. An IT manual pretty bad on specifics so I'd take an 70 to 80 year old tractor with a grain of salt depending who owned it and what they modified. The first check will be a vin...

    Inherited a good one... I hope...

    Canadian side of the border... and will end up close to Winnipeg where I can assess... I really hope she's not stuck. I can use a small loader tractor. Sitting is not a tractors friend... fingers crossed. Case Farm Kid Brian

    Inherited a good one... I hope...

    What would indicate a DV? I happen to have an IT manual that covers these in general. And with a bit of research there are quite the variation in the D series. The big hint was the shifter style to indicate a D (series). Otherwise, it is an hour and a half away and it is buried in the bush...

    Inherited a good one... I hope...

    Father-in-law passed away and left this on his land. No one else interested. Looks like a D that was well cared for at one point. I am not encouraged by the missing rad cap or the broken off intake. Been alone for at least 3 to 4 years and last run ??? Anyways, pretty sure she is a D...

    Small town banking

    You shoulda seen the gawks riding my 220 Case lawn tractor and me pulling through a not very busy Tim Hortons for a coffee... no cup holder - just pullin' a trailer full of lawn tools and a few sidewalk slabs. laughed my butt off... Brian Case farm kid (next will be my now running 870 saved...

    Case 870 8 spd shifting to road gear...

    Good afternoon, Foot throttle is currently pretty gummed up... will stick at high rpm. My 970 is smooth operating so I know how this could be used in the manner you are describing. Pretty much truck driving and would use engine deceleration vice shifting to slow down (even empty) - not knowing...

    Case 870 8 spd shifting to road gear...

    Good afternoon, Thanks for the tip. Had to double clutch the old 3 tons (1951 International Harvestor and the 1948 Mercury) under full load in hopes of getting a clean shift. The standard pattern on this should make this easy to follow. My 970 has the weird pattern in the powershift where 1 and...

    Case 870 8 spd shifting to road gear...

    Thanks for reply, This will be no load start/transport and don't know the shape of the clutch overall. But also read no synchromesh in 4 speed so probably a handful to shift on the fly... Will give 3rd high to 4th high a try Option B I guess is 4 low to get moving then shift to high in the two...

    Case 870 8 spd shifting to road gear...

    Good day, Need some advice. Just got the 870 up and running. In process of securing parts to fix up. Will need to do a road move to get it my acreage... have always had powershift tractors - 1370 and 1570 long ago and now my 970. Shift to 4th and go - powershift to 3rd and road speed. Do you...

    870 Temporary fuel tank - update

    Good day, Update on 870 - Princess Auto had some surplus stuff in as usual... and a tank that has worked perfectly. Needed a bunch of fitting to transfer from nylon host to 1/4" barb to connect - am hoping picture is clear. Radiator spout was knocked off as well and soldered that back into place...

    Transporting a Baler

    Wow, Nice looking baler- I didn't think a baler would be that wide. Hope she makes a few bales in the future. Brian Case farm kid

    Rough 870 - need temporary fuel tank

    Good day, Thank you all for the replies. Thoughts I had were pretty hooky but seems I'm not the only one who did desperate things in desperate times. I'd rather see her running and need the fuel tank fixed then fix the fuel tank only to have some other catastrophic thing pooching my plan...

    Rough 870 - need temporary fuel tank

    Gents (and ladies), Turns out oil is black but not contaminated... and engine turns over. Not seized after goodness knows how long sitting. If you saw the tank was ruptured and fuel definitely has water and dust and crap in it - you can see the damage near left rear fender. Need to disconnect...

    870 Rough but Home!!!

    Wish it had 3pth. Am considering swapping from my 970 (as it isn't working on the 970 and needs to be gone through anyway). Pretty sure it is a bolt in operation if you steal all parts. Only one year was white - last - correct? Brian Case farm kid

    970 Agri King Seat makeover....

    Guys, Some hot glue, new hardware, and an exploded view and wallah! Nice (not fabulous) good enough seat! Check pics. Sorry no before pic (cloth was generally intact and left to hold foam together)... and should have painted the metal (hindsight is always 20-20) Brian Case farm kid
