    JD 420 S dual lever touch o matic

    Howdy JD, Thank you so much for your explanation! Just turned 70 so maybe I have Old Timers Disease playing with my brain? Don't really need another tractor but when I see one looking pretty good and within my mad money...well...I just have to do it. Anyway, thank you again. Enjoy the rest of...

    JD 420 S dual lever touch o matic

    A seller has a 57 420 S for sale and I can get it for $3300. Unsure of restoration but new paint and tires. Just a quick look over when I saw two control levers on the right side of the seat. My question is: do these levers work similar to the lift and draft levers on Massey Fergusons? I have an...

    Need help in identifying this plow

    Hi Big Papa Haven't been to my sons house yet but your post got me looking in a different area. I did a Google search for Super Chieftain plow and found a 3 pt hitch 3 bottom plow just like mine. The shares and moldboards look different than mine though the landslides are the same. I will try...

    Need help in identifying this plow

    I have not seen any casting numbers but I may be looking in the wrong places. I would think casting numbers would be visible without taking the plow apart but thats my thinking for you. The plow does have extra parts being side plates for the frogs and points (look like metal arrows) and I...

    Hi showcrop, I appreciate the understanding you and others have given me! Cant say Im real computer literate as I leave most of that to my youngest son.

    Chameleon Plow

    Hi FarmallB, Thank you for addressing the lack of any pic to assist in the identifying of the plow. Stupidly I headed my post with a link to the page where 21 pics are displayed thinking anyone that may be able to help would go to the site and view all the pics. For my lack of insight I...

    Chameleon Plow

    https://lubbock.craigslist.org/grd/d/ih-mccormick-3-bottom-plow/6677248816.html I need help from anyone that may know what brand of plow this is. I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to some farm machinery and plows are one of them. The price seems a tad bit high but may be due to it being a...

    Powr trol leak from throttle valve screw

    Hi Mike, I appreciate your reply and it's my fault that I forgot to mention the two washers. A slight difference here as the washers we removed appeared to be of copper or brass. Perhaps the washers were/are plated? I will try to check the material of these washers when we return to the tractor...

    1952 J.D. 60, SN: 6004609. Powr trol # PCV230200 My son and I recently acquired this tractor mainly because I so dearly miss the pop pop pop of the 2 cylinder series tractors. It's been many many years since I sat on the models 50 and B as a lad on the farm in Missouri. Most work on these...

    YT AD 626165

    I want everyone to know that my previous post needs correction! I got a call from "George" almost 1 week after I sent him an email thru Tractor Shed. I told George the problems I had in trying to contact him. We had a long talk and George told me he may have entered the prefix numbers to his...

    YT AD 626165

    There is a problem with this ad. All attempts to contact the seller have been ignored. I did try a txt msg to the number shown and got the reply, "Not George". That was it!
