    801 ford farm tractor

    There are more than 4 - first the starter and hydraulic tube must be removed, then there are 2 smaller bolts at the very top and 1 or 2 at the bottom of the trans (pull the batt tray to see the top ones), then the visible ones along both sides.

    860 Serial Number

    Sure enough, it's a 4, tilted just right to fool me. The stamping is clear, but apparently not so my aided eye!

    860 Serial Number

    SN stamped in trans is "828IA". It"s a clear stamping, with the leading and trailing diamonds. I know the I represents 1, but what is the A? It can"t be "10" because that would put the serial number at 828110, way out of range for what is clearly a 55-57 machine.

    6000 SOS

    Alto Fair! I grew up in the town over and was a vat rat for a bit at the Alto Creamery. Pretty sure Bob is the gentleman I've heard spoken of that used to work for the local Ford, uh, NH dealer and was (is) an expert SOS man. Mike Whooley

    Ford 5000 front axle

    Hi Cindy - just sent you an email, by quite some coincidence I started tearing down a 5000 utility just this morning and will have the bolster aka axle support off by tomorrow. I"m in eastern PA. Mike Whooley

    ford 5000 pto and three point

    and soundguy is right - check the posn of the asc before all else!! Pretty sure it needs to be in for the three pt to operate. Either case, if the 3pt doesn't operate in either posn, the asc isn't it.

    ford 5000 pto and three point

    ... I had pics of the the control and unloading valve but wouldn't you know I deleted them two days ago. When you're looking at the rear of the control and unloading valves, you'll observe a bushing that protrudes back about 1/2 inch. That's the unloading valve outer sleeve. The end of the...

    ford 5000 pto and three point

    David - I just, and do mean just, went through exactly the same issues on a 5000 I picked up that had been sitting. On mine it turned out to be two lightly stuck valves. First thing to check is your rear end oil level, followed by the condition of the suction strainer. Go ahead and pull the lift...

    ford 5000 lift

    Not to hijack your thread David, but I'm dealing with the same issue on a 5000 I just picked up, however my asc won't even budge. I assume it's in the out pos'n (3-pt not working) but can someone verify how much plastic sleeve should be exposed in the out pos'n? (Mine is showing approx 1 inch. )...

    Hyd Questions Regarding Remote Valves

    You hit exactly on a point i'm not clear on - that is, when using a tractor mounted remote valve or one of the remote take off plates, is the pressure actually tee'd (in parallel with the backpressure valve) or is it diverted to the remote first, then returned to the three point system? If it...

    Hyd Questions Regarding Remote Valves

    I did a little more research on this and it seems to me that you would only use the power beyond plate (eg HV5902) if you were using a power beyond capable loader valve. In that scenario pressure comes out the pb plate to the valve, the pb port on the valve then hoses back to the pb port on the...
