    Help me identify this loader

    Thanks for all the comments. I will see if I can contact Great Bend. I believe a little fabrication for the rear mounts and some for the side frame mounts and it should work.

    Help me identify this loader

    Thanks guys. The other commenter thought it was an IH 2001 loader. Any reason why this would not mount on my 5000? I know I would have to fabricate mounts to the axle, but I don't know about the side plates for the frame if they would work, or if I had to fabricate those as well. It's a...

    Help me identify this loader

    I posted these pictures in the Ford forum because I bought this loader a few days ago. The guy I bought it from said it came from a Ford industrial tractor, but he could not remember what size. I cannot find a tag anywhere on it. I had been hoping to mount it to my Ford 5000, but when I...

    Help me identify this Fore loader

    Thanks Rick. Is there some way you are seeing it is an IH? I have been searching several times online for various pictures, and it does match up closely with some Ford Industrial loaders I have found, but I cannot see enough detail in the pictures to be sure. I will post in the IH forum.

    Help me identify this Fore loader

    I hope someone can help me identify this loader. I bought it a few days ago to mount on my 5000. It came off an industrial Ford tractor, but the guy could not remember what size the tractor was. After taking some measurements, it looks like it will mount on my 5000 if I make some mounts for the...

    SOS

    I should have added, I posted some comments and pictures here back in 2009 on fixing the inching pedal spring and cleaning the control valve. That post is still available at: http://forums.yesterdaystractors.com/viewtopic.php?t=606770

    SOS

    I too have a 1968 5000 with SOS. I bought it from a guy there in Johnson Creek years ago and I still use it to bale hay. I cannot think of a better tractor for doing so since it's so easy to change speeds depending on conditions. I moved from Wisconsin to here in western Colorado 5 years ago...

    5000 needs rings

    I am certainly interested. I bought a complete set of manuals including the service manual after I got the tractor, but I've never had the guts to attempt an overhaul. I would have the ability to do it all, but I'm afraid I would run into something and screw it up. I would like to do as much as...

    5000 needs rings

    Is this a gas or diesel? I have a 5000 diesel, and if that is what you are rebuilding, I will be watching this thread very closely. As you go through the process, any kind of detail you can provide or pictures would be very greatly appreciated.

    Ford 5000 electricalgenerator

    Thanks for the comments guys. I will check them out and get some work done when I can catch up again. I would like to just go to the new alternator...what would be needed for new wiring? Edited to add: Rod, can you provide more detail on the change in alternator while keeping the tach drive...

    Ford 5000 electricalgenerator

    A couple years ago I replaced the console on my Ford 5000 (hour meter, RPM meter) and what I believe was a voltage regulator in front of the fuel tank. About a week later, the RPM meter quit working, but the hour meter still worked and still works. I also replaced what I believe was a voltage...

    Ford 5000

    I've had my 5000 Diesel for several years now, it has the SOS and I love it for cutting, raking, tedding and baling hay. I have a 9 foot Gehl 1090 Haybine and it pulls it fine. The baler is a JD336 baler and it handles that fine until I get a fairly large load of bales in the trailer. The SOS is...

    Hydraulic tank heater

    I bought a tank heater for my skid loader. I put 2-3 foot hoses on the inlet and outlet, with a small drill powered pump in between. Plug it in, run the pump with my cordless drill and pump oil out of the reservoir through the tank heater and back into the reservoir. It doesn't take long to...

    Rusty Bolt Test

    I've been using the ATF/Acetone mix for awhile now...seems to do much better than store bought brands. Used it today to press a bolt seized in a bushing. By the time I got it out, I could see it had penetrated through the entire bushing. I keep mine in an old contact saline bottle clearly...
