    International Harvester 185 clutch

    Went on a trip to Alaska, got home and the clutch on my 185 will not disengage. The pedal does go down. I have run it by starting it in gear and cut grass with it but no luck. Is this a standard bell housing set up or is this something diffrent. Thanks.

    3600 3 point lift. update

    I posted this a while back. This is an update on my 3600 3 point lift where the control lever kept dropping down and so did the lift arms.

    444 Hydraulics quit

    Check everything. Start with screen and filter, those are regular maintainence items. Also on the valves below and in front of the seat there is a little screen with a hex cap over it.
