    IH444 Grille Finish

    Does anyone know if the IH444 Grille insert is supposed to be chrome plated, painted or are they bare? I cleaned mine up with a Scotch-brite pad and I don't know what to do with it next. It was a bit rusty at the bottom and kinda had that galvanized look to the rest of it prior to cleaning. Thanks!

    IH 424 Fuel Tank Fitting Size and Cutoff

    When I bought my 444, it had the same problem, and the valves are impossible to find. Being that the previous owner hacked the fuel line, and put rubber hose in its place with a Facet Fuel Pump, I opted to replace the hose with new rigid line and changed the bushing in the tank to accept a JD...

    IH444 Auxiliary Hydraulic Tapping Plug

    Phil, sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Things got a little sideways here the past few days. I went and got a 5/8" bolt, but I think that maybe the one you have in the pic is for the screen, as you had mentioned previously. The plug I'm looking for is the one where the pipe is coming...

    IH444 Auxiliary Hydraulic Tapping Plug

    Thanks, guys. I tried the Search, and found a mention of it on a 384 thread stating that a 384 plug might be 1/2 NPT, but the parts diagram for that tractor has a description of 1/2 BPT, so completely different animal. Hopefully, it will be something I can get locally that will work.

    IH444 Auxiliary Hydraulic Tapping Plug

    Hey all. I'm working on correcting some plumbing issues with the hydraulics on my 444. The Auxiliary Tapping Port on the Hydraulic Control Head is missing the Plug (P/N: 706027R1) and the associated Seal (704337R1). While the seal is readily available, I'm coming empty-handed for the plug...

    High Temp IH Yellow

    Hey all. Hope everyone is able to Quarantine themselves with your tractors! I am adding some flood lights to the sides of my 444's loader, and would like to paint the housings the same or close to same shade of IH yellow found on those late 60's and early 70's IH tractors. I've found some...

    IH444 Ignition Switch & Re-wire

    Hey, all. So, I'm back to working on the 444. Unfortunately, its due to some burnt up wiring (literally fire and smoke) that happened while scraping the drive. It got exciting for a minute, but it luckily put itself out. This happened once before but was limited to the wiring at the ignition...

    Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place, but I found myself in a section for engine kits and it only showed the BD154 kit for a 444. ?
