    What is the Worst Mechanic Job

    I worked at a Bobcat dealer for a few years and I would say a bad job was anything that involved a skid loader at a slaughter plant, garbage dump, or waist treatment facility. I got sent to repair a mini excavator that broke down in the middle of exhuming a grave at the cemetary (that was a...

    Any Illinois gun slingers out there?

    Send in the application yourself and don't pay the charge that the stores give you to send it in all they are doing is mailing it. The only issue that I have had was when I renewed mine last time. I have had a FOID card for 15 years so its not like my name wasn't in the system. Sent in the...

    M decals

    Call Maple Hunter decals 812-894-9759. They have the correct ones in mylar and vinal. The decals sold at the case ih dealerships are poor quality and are not even close to the originals.

    I should buy a lottery ticket. TA cable update.

    I put on a lot of the compressor kits when I worked in the dealer. One thing you need to check is that the 86 series used two different styles of fittings on the lines. I don't remember if that effects the evaporator and condenser or not, but it might be worth looking into. Its a pretty easy...

    Dealer Service Lowdow

    Couldn't agree more. I worked at two Case IH dealers over a twelve year period. We never had flat rate on anything but any unbillable time was counted aginst your performance evaluation. The hourly pay was always lower that of any other business around so you got a portion of what you billed...

    models

    The dealer can do a machine used on check of any part number in the CNH system. I don't know if that feature is on the online parts look up or not.

    Autolite 3116

    I had the same problem when I worked in a dealer on some of the utilities. Most of the time using a chrome deep well socket instead of a sparkplug socket solved the issue, but I do have a ground down harbor freight socket I would use once in a while. On the bright side 3116s do not require...

    OT: f250 brake problem

    Had this happen on my 02 F250 and 07 F350. The backing plate for the brakes rusted and got week and deformed or broke and caused the park brake to drag.

    Case/IH 7230 axle hub.

    I always had pretty good luck by carefully driving a large chisel into the split on the hub and wedging the hub open. Be careful to not drive it to far and split the hub. If the hub is the style with the key that comes out you can dive the key through and get the hub to spin on the axel. You...

    720 LP Gas parts

    I am currently working on a 720 LP Gas. I have the block and head off and need the gasket set to reassemble them. I have not found a gasket kit for a lp or gas tractor available from anyone but the dealer. I was wondering if anyone knew of a kit available aftermarket. All of the kits I find...

    IH Plows

    I'm getting ready to paint some of my plows to get them ready for the shows this summer. I have owners mauals and parts books for most of my stuff but they don't really show any pictures of were the decals go. I can look at a dozen different plows of the same model at the shows and every one...

    Cat DW 10

    Were did you find one? A guy near me in central il has 2, one is an ex army machine and the other is a scraper. Neither one has run in 15 years. He has a few acres of old rare equipment that he won't sell, but every now and then he gets out the torch and starts cutting and hauling to the...

    IH Fast Hitch on a John Deere

    I have a John Deere 730. It is the only non IH tractor I own. This tractor has the factory rockshaft but not the three point arms. To put a factory hitch on will be at least $1,000. A friend of mine is scrapping a 706 with a fast hitch and will give me all of the hitch parts. I have several...
