    More 1955 hydraulic questions.

    I have been running Olivers here on the ranch for over 30 years, I USED to actually enjoy working on them, that was until I bought a 1955, that tractor evidently evolved beyond the engineer's ability to think straight, what a freaking nightmare! I know one poster here said the remote hoses...

    1955 high pressure O ring?

    I have a leak where the high pressure line leaves the pump and goes to the tee (three point) and power beyond. I seems obvious that it would be an O ring but I cannot find it in the parts book. I do see an O ring 195278A, the comment is that it is not illustrated, would this be the O ring I need?

    1955 water pump kit?

    There are no return boots or lines on the injectors, there is simply a long piece of hose by-passing them, interestingly enough the injectors do not appear to be trying to return any fuel.

    1955 water pump kit?

    It does matter if you use the seal installation tool provided by the seal manufacturer, it is made of plastic and could not withstand the force needed to drive the shaft into the housing. The ID of the seal must be correctly supported when it is driven onto the shaft whether the seal is...

    1955 water pump kit?

    There is also a company called Commercial Water Pump Rebuilders in Houston, I have been dealing with them for going on 35 years on my JD and MF water pumps along with some really strange stuff like the M422A1, air cooled but has a water pump shaft, and that goofy air compressor I have that uses...

    1955 water pump kit?

    Price for the same product is absolutely the determining factor for me, I am on a fixed income and farming/ranching is just a hobby for me, I certainly do not make a profit from it.

    1955 water pump kit?

    I see a water pump, (without pulley) I do not see a kit, I can get a pump off of Amazon for $175 shipped and it is likely the same pump.

    1955 water pump kit?

    I will have to check in the morning, I see references to the seal and gaskets being available but not the shaft.

    1955 water pump kit?

    Well I don't want to pay the EXTRA $300 for the pulley so I have to get the press set up anyway, may as well just build it myself, at least I will know that part was done right.

    More 1955 hydraulic questions.

    I had been poring penetrating oil down the column for weeks, I just pulled hard on the wheel and it moved, so I just worked it back and forth. The first step on this machine is 27 inches, considering OSHA regs are 9.5" for fixed steps on heavy equipment that is just insane, the step up to the...
