    Salvage Yards

    It's a 1978 20C. Its my understanding (after poking around AGCO parts search) that this should be a common cover on the 23X-25X series. The few that have been located were both from a 255 but too worn out, unfortuately. Thanks, Drew

    Hydraulic pump oscillator

    Hi guys, I am rebuilding a hydraulic lift pump and the oscillator tab is all mangled up. Is there a place who specializes in rebuilding these pumps that may have one of these? I tried the local Massey dealers and they can't seem to find one. I see multiple ebay listings from India but when I...

    Let's talk Ring and Pinions

    Appreciate the input. Thats my gut feel on the gasket too. My gut feel is also that the shop just slammed in a new gear set and didnt check/change anything but who knows. I guess my goal here is to find a point where there is no carrier movement, pattern makes sense and then preload...

    Let's talk Ring and Pinions

    Bolting up the trumpet without any shims and checking pattern was my next step. Plan to do that tonight and share the findings. I've been looking at the service manual (and videos online) and don't see any mention of shimming the pinion for depth on these old Massey's Just a quick glance...

    Let's talk Ring and Pinions

    Thanks Tom, Ive seen those old attachments before.....They look neat! I was using a removable tips with fixed angles on them to minimize any scrub. Looks like they also sell indicators with a sweep tip at the end that might be more affordable for me. Thanks!!

    Let's talk Ring and Pinions

    So gents, any thoughts on my situation? I want to dive deeper into a gear pattern and pinion depth discussion but dont want to waste anyone's time if this is the wrong venue for that type of discussion. Please advise if there's a more appropriate forum for drivetrain/axle questions. Thank...

    Understood. Sorry for the confusion. I was going to edit the first post to include tractor info but looks like after a certain time expires, the edit option disappears.

    Let's talk Ring and Pinions

    Sorry, I thought the make and model is listed under my name. Can folks not see it? 1978 Massey 20C. The tractor was working properly but the left side trumpet was leaking. I was informed by previous owner that the ring and pinion was replaced sometime in the 90's. They gave me shop...

    Let's talk Ring and Pinions

    Hey guys, This is going to get sort of technical so bear with me :) Carrier Preload I went to install the left trumpet housing (right side was never removed) but could not remember if there was previously a gasket or just RTV....or both! The ring and pinion had been replaced some time ago by...

    Need help with 3pt hydraulic pump info!

    Hi guys, I'll try to keep this simple but hoping someone who is knowledgeable about pumps can explain this... - My tractor has a MK2 hydraulic pump with the rear facing relief. I confirmed this visually. - My parts manual says an alternate pump is the MK3 with the relief mounted horizontally...
