    Fixing Brakes on a 1974 IH 200 - Fix Original Stuff or Replace with Modern??

    Just a catch all I use because it’s not mainstream enough to have a big choice of replacement parts. Nice truck. I like orphans.

    Fixing Brakes on a 1974 IH 200 - Fix Original Stuff or Replace with Modern??

    Since this is an orphan I think with parts in hand you can figure out what you have and what you need a lot better. I have no doubt you can get it fixed. Gotta stick your head in there.

    Fixing Brakes on a 1974 IH 200 - Fix Original Stuff or Replace with Modern??

    An axle swap is a pretty significant project depending of course on your skill set and tools. If you want to run it like a new truck maybe it’s not the best. For a cool around town truck I’d just fix what’s there if I could. Does it need rotors? Or just pads & hydraulics?

    Poison Hemlock Question Again

    I would believe the info from official sources. You could call your county agent and maybe talk to a human that knows. Seems like a really bad invasive. https://agrilifetoday.tamu.edu/2026/05/20/poison-hemlock-how-to-identify-and-avoid-this-deadly-plant/...

    There must be a specific tool for this situation...

    That's a hard function to describe. What is the part called? Might help figure out a google search. These might have some potential. https://www.harborfreight.com/3-piece-long-reach-hose-grip-pliers-37909.html...

    Paint / Rust Removal

    I also use play sand, sift it first with a homemade screen, catch it and reuse it. Keep it dry. I'm too cheap to pay for other media. It has it's place but is limited since it is a small unit. Most of my prep on old cars and tractors over many years has been done with my angle grinder and a...

    Should I buy it?

    Talk is cheap. How would that work? You take it to an internet stranger? I wouldn’t want that person at my place either. I wouldn’t even give that a thought. Just me.

    1964 ford 4140 industrial , worth fixing ??? New to tractors

    While you have the starter off open it up and check/replace the brushes and clean off the armature if needed.

    Anyone have any good ideas

    I don't have a 300 so I'm probably way off base here. I assume you can't get to the linkage attached to the lever to hold it. Looking at how it's made can you remove the instrument panel enough to get a block under the linkage or vice grips on it to hold the linkage in place compressed against...

    Rod bearing failure

    I have no real experience but this PDF might support @Jim in LA and @da.bees Fatigue of Aluminum Lining https://www.kingbearings.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/king-bearings-failure-guide-download.pdf

    What AI can do for you.

    I think the term AI gets thrown around very generally. I don’t pretend to understand how the systems work. My assumption is if it is feeding off a vetted closed data field the information it pulls is more accurate. If it is feeding off the internet like google it very convincingly mixes all...

    Opinions Solicited

    my 2¢ - I don't like the idea of a foot switch on a table saw. This thread reminds me I need to change my old Craftsman right side switch at my country place to a left side paddle switch like my newer Craftsman.

    Trailer coupler broke

    Since you had to ask are you really that confident you’re not putting anyone at risk when you can put a better one on pretty cheap.

    These are so AI

    From an old ad guy the simplified formula is Tell them what they want to hear Make that message simple to believe Make it easy to follow through For too long a lot of people have discovered that selling propaganda instead of product brings them influence and money. I don't know that it will...
