    Farmall 340 Paint Color

    Thanks for the pictures. I found the comment below on a Cub Cadet thread talking about IH 901 paint. Pretty much thought the same thing when I opened my can (PPG 8665) ⬇️. Hence why I had to ask here for some sort of reality check.

    Farmall 340 Paint Color

    Agreed. I just don't have anything to compare my painted 901 sample to. Thanks

    Farmall 340 Paint Color

    So the 901 in photo doesn't look green to you? Indeed it is the correct number (901/PPG 8665) but before I go all in and paint want to make sure that is the correct color. The mixing folks may have made a mistake. "Trust but verify" is what I'm asking here.

    Farmall 340 Paint Color

    Hey you just may be the guy to ask. My younger brother passed and I took over ownership of the Farmall 450D my grandfather purchased in 1958. While I was away in the Army I came home to a painted 450D. However, my grandfather said "but the white your brother used doesn't look quite right"...

    Farmall Steering Wheel Removal

    I am planning to sandblast my Farmall 450D in a few weeks. Already loosening fender bolts etc. with the torch. I'm now looking to remove the steering wheel so it's ready to be replaced after the blast, primer, and paint. This nut isn't moving. Any ideas for getting this off the threaded...

    Farmall 450 Diesel How Many Made And What Years?

    Just came across this thread (I know it's a decade old). Using the AI tool, I was trying to figure out how many Farmall 450D tractors were made. I think the 1,108 is a much lower number than I thought. I guess I believe Diesel World as parts are very hard to find and when you do they are $$...

    Farmall 450D Fast Hitch Hydraulics

    Thanks! Tonight I'll need to look for the single or double acting control. Seems to be hidden. Also, I checked the little pin and it appears to be all the way up?

    Farmall 450D Fast Hitch Hydraulics

    Now that I have my 450D engine running (gas & diesel sides both work now)..... I noticed the fast hitch doesn't work. Before I blamed the hydraulic pump as being bad, I changed torn and filthy filter and replaced reservior hytran fluid. Interestingly, now the hitch goes in the up direction...

    Hydraulic pump rebuild

    Unbelievable how it can get that dirty without any real outside exposure during normal usage. Now to get the Fast Hitch to work better. Goes up just fine but lots of resistance on the way down (sort of hammers or vibrates). Any ideas what that might be? Valve or more dirt? Thanks

    Hydraulic pump rebuild

    Speaking of hydraulics. After lots of engine work finally got our 1957 Farmall 450D running and thought the hydraulic pump was bad (Fast hitch not going up or down). One of the first things I did was remove the hydraulic filter and change the fluid. Surprised how nasty things can get after...

    Hy-Tran...I give up

    Fleet Farm here in Wisconsin carries a Hy-Tran knock off that I use and haven't noticed any problems. About $65 a bucket which isn't a bad price when I had to buy 5 buckets recently. I noticed Fleet Farm also has a John Deere blend and the buckets look the same exept for the small writing on...

    450 Diesel Tachometer

    ☝️Problem solved. Thank you!

    450 Diesel Tachometer

    I ordered an aftermarket Tachometer thinking it would fit into the opening on my 450D. The recommeded part number crossed just fine but this cut-out has a teardrop shape and not what I'm used to seeing. Anyone have the correct part number for this teardrop shaped opening? Thanks

    450 Diesel PTO Not Working

    I inherited this tractor from my late brother. I don't have him or my dad to ask any questions to about PTO history. I recall as a kid it worked great. Now in 2025 there is no movement at all when PTO lever engaged (right side of tractor seat). The manual says it might have a seasonal...

    Farmall 450D Fan Belt

    Thank you everyone for the assist here. A week ago I did get both generator and fan belts on. A diesel mechanic I asked to help me assess this tractor a year ago brought over his hand crank. It doesn't mate with the shaft correctly. Somewhere in the history of this tractor the shaft became...
