    Towing vs Pulling John Deer 14T Baler

    Hi all, I am in the process of buying a used JD 14T thats about 125 miles from my house. Everything I am seeing is saying the 14T is JUST wide enough to be a problem finding a trailer, unless I hauled it in a LOW BOY (Big truck), I towed a single row con picker that far or further once... it was...

    John Deer MT Starting & Serial Number

    Good evening, all, well I guess I am a glutton for punishment so this summer I picked up a 2nd 8N and a 1951 John Deer MT. I plan to work on them this winter and get them all dressed up, both run and are in pretty good shape.. My MT needs a head gasket, and I did drag a harrow on my small field...

    IH 45 Baler Knotters?

    Fitz Mayer, thanks for the spring! It came in the mail today, I put it on the baller and with any luck will try again this weekend I am attaching a couple photos of your spring and the other one I had mounted. The red one is the right side spring and the black one is the one you sent

    IH no. 45 baler

    It looks like this one is gone, but is there anyone else out there that has the hay chute for a 45? If I can find one I'll try to get it, I am in PA, if not Ill try to get one made at the local machine shop. Just need to get measurements from someone that has one.

    IH 45 Baler Knotters?

    No, I haven’t received it yet. But I’ll let you know… Thanks again. As far as doing it first goes… no worries… I just wanted to see where it was as far as functioning goes and ID (as best I could) what issues it has. It was going to be scrapped when I bought it so I didn’t know how many issues...

    IH 45 Baler Knotters?

    Just a quick update, tried some baling and got several strands of twine hanging off muy inboard knotter and nothing from the outboard. After doing some reading I think I need to open up the knotters, clean the Balehooks and clean/sharpen the knives. Hopefully I'll have that done this weekend and...

    McCormick B 45 Pto Shaft and yoke

    OK, just a quick update, I took it out to the field to attempt to bale but, my inboard knotter (passenger side) tied two knots and the outboard tied nothing. A few folks have said the broken spring on the twine box (outboard side) may have been the culprit so I ordered two torsion springs online...

    IH 45 Baler Knotters?

    Ok, quick Hail Mary here… does anyone know/have one of the Twine box retention springs (that hold the small rod)? I am having a bear of a time finding one and only one shop has offered to make one for what I think is a CRAZY price…

    IH 45 Baler Knotters?

    Thanks for all the GREAT INFO! I am going to work on the knotters this weekend and hopefully find a spring to replace the one that is broken. Yes, coming out of the twine box there are a set of pressure plates, which appear to be working fine. Bout 2" below that ther is a spring mounted rod with...

    IH 45 Baler Knotters?

    OK, I know from reading that the 45s were notorious for the knotters not being the greatest so with that said... I have a small farm and don't do a lot of baling... and my big tractor is only 52hp, and my farm is pretty much on a side hill... so I don't want a huge baler, nor the price that...
