    IH 684 oil drain plug crush washer

    I have an annoying drip from the engine oil drain plug and I haven’t been able to determine what size copper washer would fit the drain plug. Local dealer and parts fiche didn’t help. I was hoping to pick up some washers before I change the oil next. Can anyone tell me what size I would...

    IH 684, d239 tank heater and coolant questions

    Sorry for the long time in replying. I haven't been checking in here much this year. I had a tank heater on the little 454 I had and it worked well. For the 684 though, I will just replace what is already there. Taylor was back around and was trying to get a dealer license again I...

    IH 684 with Laurin cab

    Updating an old post in hopes it may help someone else. The part number quoted above was not correct and Laurin Cabs didn't seem able to help but persistence (or maybe it was stubbornness) paid off and a new parts guy at Laurin recently came through with their part # 154 350 000 with a list...

    Ih 684 tractor advice

    I have a late 684 and really like it. Seems to have great power for the size and really easy on fuel. All of the German diesels like to be worked so if it is idling around doing light work a lot, try to give it a spell doing tillage or bush hogging every so often. The tractor in the photo...

    IH 684 with Laurin cab

    Central Equipment came through for me and the filter is supposed to be a Fleetguard # AF1695. I'm waiting for it to come in but thought I would post the number here in case someone else is looking for one.

    Bush hogging

    Every fall when bush hogging I say that next spring I'm gone to cut in the spring next year. I'm off next week to hunt and mow and will be saying the same thing again! At least the grill of my old IH 684 is easy to remove and makes blowing the crap out of the rad easy. Some bush hogging work...

    IH 464 suitability- Land Pride RTR 2072 reverse tiller

    In low range, #1 you should be ok. I used to own a 454 diesel and now run 684 diesel and both were fine with our 6' Land Pride, reverse tiller. At times, especially if around heavy roots in an orchard, a creeper gear might be nice, but you could get the job done. Since you are looking to buy...

    2 cents on a Case IH 495??

    485 is rated at 15.9 or 17 (optional) gpm vs 13 gpm for a JD 2150. My experience with both the older IH inline and later H pattern shifters is that they worked really well with good speeds and syncromesh. The inline shifter linkage could be an issue if it is worn out but the entire mechanism...

    2 cents on a Case IH 495??

    495 was the previous IH 484 reconfigured to look more like a Case. D179 German diesel which is a great little diesel and the same transmission and rear end as many larger tractors in the 84 85 and 95 series. If it has been maintained properly, they are a great little tractor. Easy on fuel...

    240 / 245 massey

    Both models are updated 135s and can be a real handy little tractor with the great little perkins 3 cylinder diesel. Most of the 200 series suffered from paint peel and body rust issues but that is an easy fix and parts are readily available if you have a good dealer handy. I prefer the look...

    IH 684 with Laurin cab

    I was in to Central as I have found Mr Crossman to be both knowledgeable and helpful when discussing Farmalls and older IH stuff. No luck so far. I have tried contacting Laurin without success. There are lots of these cabs still in use but likely not many people using them worry about the...

    IH 684 with Laurin cab

    I have a late model 684 with a Laurin cab fitted and I have been trying to find an air filter for the cab without success. The filter is located at the rear of the tractor above the rear window (in the normal place) and measures 28" long, 7.5" wide, and 2.25" deep. It has a metal frame and a...

    Old iron at work

    The Super C / 200 Farmalls were a great tractor for the size of most eastern, family farms for years and continue to be a great little tractor to have around. Independent pto is about the only thing they were missing but judging by how few 240 tractors where ever sold around here, most people...
