    Lee's Ford 4400 Thread

    Well, the generator has quit charging (I suspect the regulator rather than the generator, actually), so I have an alternator conversion to put on it when I have time. For the moment it's up on the mountain where I was cutting trees with a solar trickle charger on it, but I think I will make a...

    Gas tank cleaning

    I've had good luck half filling with diesel fuel, dumping some old screws and nails in, and then strapping it to a jacked up truck tire and letting it spin for a while. Hard to get the screws and nails out though, or at least it was on the motorcycle tank I did it on. Whatever you do, don't...

    Question: There is a bolt and a nut that hold the seat frame on. The bolt goes in front, and then the nut is on a stud in the back. When I changed out the seat, that whole stud came out. It's like 3 or 4 inches long and smooth except for some threads near the top. I cleaned up the area good...

    Is that a Ford cab, or aftermarket?

    Here's some more pics. The cab really is awful, but the rest of it seems pretty good. Runs good and doesn't seem to have too much wear, anyway. I guess I'll find out, but I am feeling more confident that I didn't make a bad decision buying it. I mean it certainly needs going through and...

    You don't want that thing, man. It's full of rust holes. :(

    Leatherman multitool-which is the best?

    I like the newer-model Surge with the replaceable wire cutter blades pretty good. Pretty heavy duty, and the T-shank blade holder is nice. I ended up getting two of them off ebay that were broken in different ways and put them together into one good one. In the process I got rid of the...

    Howdy again everyone. Starting a thread on this ole feller as kind of a progress log and place to ask questions when stuff breaks down, heh. 1969-Aug-25 Day-Shift, Gasser 3cyl, Independent 540 PTO, 8-speed. Foot throttle. Dual remotes, possibly aftermarket, not sure. I assume the loader...

    Cows, cords, and chewing

    ...... Or me trying to move them with the tractor will have them smashed up sooner than that. :3

    Howdy

    Welp, my buddy (whose truck and trailer we were going to take to get it) jack knifed on the ice and totaled his truck! I worked out a deal with someone else to get it, but have to wait until Mar 1 now! I've gotta get my pulling truck back. It's been in the shop for months now.

    Fish oil in the insulation is what the squirrels like, I think.

    Cows, cords, and chewing

    They ate the tail lights off my IH dump trunk one time. Best one was, a guy we used to rent from had a nice little sugar shack that he cooked down his maple syrup in. He had a 2" hole in one wall that he ran a pipe through into a big tank of sap outside. Of course he took this all down when...
