Mudrig's new Ford 3000
So the steering cylinder is welded together, but the seal I need to replace is luckily held in with a snap ring. -
Mudrig's new Ford 3000
The radiator seems pretty full to me, the guy said that he kept filling it up every time he ran it so I'm assuming he was filling it all the way up every time. It's a factory 2 line hydraulic valve, it has a knob that I'm assuming is the drop speed adjustment and then the two positions for lift... -
Mudrig's new Ford 3000
Just picked up a new toy: A mid 60s 3000 diesel select-o-speed. I am well aware of the reputation of these machines, but for the work I'm doing and the price it was the best I could get. Eventually I plan on 8 speed swapping it, but for now it's keeping the select-o-speed. Lots of little things... -
The Ratty-20
All back together. Got it out and took it down the house to run it a bit since it has sat all winter. Paint still has more rust than I'd like, but I'm destroying the paint trying to remove it, so I'm leaving it. I have a set of rims lined up to replace the rears since they're majorly rotted, and...- Mudrig150

Just like that, it's back on all 4s. Steering bracket isn't here yet, and it needs front tires since the front tires are actually coming apart at the seams.- Mudrig150

Finally got the front axle plate in, needs some careful cutting to clear the axle and adapter bushings but it should work great.- Mudrig150

This tractor has been on our...- Mudrig150
