    Agco Parts Page

    I posted a comment on a subsequent Agco Parts Pages topic, but I will write something here also because I know from personal experience with the Agco web site how frustrating it is to not be able to access the Oliver parts books! I stumbled onto the solution by realizing I could type in...

    AGCO Parts Books

    It looks like the key to getting to the Oliver parts listings is not going to the AGCO home page, but instead typing agcopartsbooks.com in the search bar of your browser. Then you can click on Search By Parts Book, type Oliver in the search bar below, and the 42 model postings will appear as...

    Will engine side shields on 770 fit 880?

    Side sheet metal (Engine surrounds and clutch covers) from a Super 88 will also fit an 880.

    Oliver 77 crankshaft pulley...

    As Olliejunkie said, it will be necessary to remove the pulley and take the slip ring off. You may even need to rent a gear puller from Autozone or someplace to get the adjuster ring off without damaging it. Your pulley is probably beat up from previous adjustment actions. You will need to use...

    Explain governor setting, please

    My recent experience suggests something could be going on with your carburetor. I rebuilt what I thought was a good TSX 363 core for my 66. When I installed it the motor surged like crazy. I re-installed a known good carburetor and the surging stopped. Never seen this before, but it...

    White--4-80-17 backhoe

    Don't know if this will help. Just checked my factory shop manual on the Fleetline through 3 digit series. It shows the filter for the Reverse-O-Torc to be remotely located, receiving oil under pressure from a fitting on the right side of the housing as the operator views from the seat. From...

    1951 Oliver 88 Row Crop

    I think Mongo59's warning about not putting the springs in dry refers to putting grease on the springs so they won't fall out while you're installing the shifter. You might think it would be fairly easy to retrieve a spring from the bottom of the transmission case. Well, maybe not! I dropped...

    Oliver 88....maybe 1950'ish

    Additional adjustment to the slip ring on the crankshaft pulley can be obtained by drilling three new holes in the base pulley. To accomplish this, back off the adjustment to within about 1 1/2 inches of all the way loose. Centerpunch for three new 1/4 holes forward of the originals. Make sure...

    770 radiator cap

    It looks like part of the old radiator cap is still on the filler neck. An online search should bring up the names of several parts suppliers who can supply a new cap.

    Oliver 77 Std - Wont Drive

    Observe the driveshaft between the clutch and transmission. If it is turning with the clutch released and the tractor running, the splines connecting the cast iron driveshaft coupler to the transmission input shaft are stripped out. If the shaft is not turning, most likely the hub of the...

    Bearing Crosses RowCrop 60

    I hope this is my last post on this subject, but it occurs to me that if you are modifying later model steering shafts it probably would be a good idea to observe the u-joint timing on the original shafts and transfer that to the modified shafts. This may affect smoothness of operation.

    Bearing Crosses RowCrop 60

    On this topic I should add I haven't measured the steering shaft diameters for comparison of the 60 steering column and pedestal shaft with 1950 and later Oliver steering shafts but they appear to be the same. This equipment may be available from salvage Row Crop 60's but I'm doubtful. Good...

    Bearing Crosses RowCrop 60

    I have a 1945 Oliver 60 that has the later style steering u-joints and bearing crosses that Oliver began using on the Fleetlines (66,77,88) about 1950. I don't know if this was a field conversion or a custom made setup. This could be fabricated by obtaining sufficiently long shafts from later...
