    to-30 Rear main seal replacement

    So I found a used z-129 engine for my old worn one It is amazing. It runs great , doesn't smoke and has plenty of power. The only issue is the rear main seal leaks some. If I split the tractor, pull the clutch and flywheel., take off the oil pan, can I replace the seal without messing with...

    New To-30 radiator

    I am in the need of a new radiator for my T0-30. Has anyone out there bought one from the Yesterday's Tractor/Parts ASAP site? The one they have is a lot less expensive then Stieners or Messisks. If so are you happy with it? Thx

    So I recently picked up a decent Ford 515 sickle mower. One of the grease points in the owner's manual is to take off the cap on the drive housing and grease the bearing under the cap.

    ford 515 sickle mower

    I have a strong running Ferguson TO-30 that I would like to get a sickle mower for. I have a chance to buy a 7' Ford 515 sickle mower and I was wondering if this is a good choice for this tractor? Is fitment a problem? Does the fergie have enough hp to run this mower? Any help will be appreciated.
