    GTB Piston Specs (Allowable Wear?)

    Charlie's argument seems valid. Why sleeve if oversize pistons are available? Especially if cheaper then sleeving. The jump to aluminum can only help. Even if this is a stock rebuild. Reducing rotating mass is a great way to improve an engines design. Sure, steel pistons worked fine in...

    U Special and Z serial numbers

    The rad cap is twist on. I'm pretty confident it's a 12 volt machine. It has the same long skinny battery tray that the U Special has.

    U Special and Z serial numbers

    Here's the Z. The serial number is hard to read - I could have the first few digits wrong. Here's the U Special and the Z before I pulled them out of the shed.

    U Special

    I picked up a U Special this weekend. It has a flat grill - very different then the U's I'm used to. It also has smaller brakes then the bendix style automotive brakes I have on my 1949 UTS. What did I buy? What's special about these tractors?

    UTS Wheel Color

    It looks like most UTS wheels have red centers with silver rims. Were the rims painted silver from factory or were they galvanized?

    UTS Hydraulic Pump

    Thanks Yonson. I found a Minneapolis tag on my pump (it looks like its a Webster). What's confusing is the pump seems like the right one, but the oil ports on the back don't quite line up with the factory Moline flange.

    UTS Hydraulic Pump

    What is the correct pump for my 1949 UTS It has one right now that makes good pressure, but doesn't match up with the 3 bolt flange that bolts to the back. The o-ring doesn't cover the pressure port well and I have a massive leak. does anyone have part numbers for a Eaton/Charlynn or...

    U hood side panel wears through on exhaust manifold

    What's the trick to keeping the exhaust manifold from wearing through the hood side? Every old U I see has this problem. I don't want to repair and paint my hood just to have it wear through again. Thanks! Chris.
