    oil for trans/diff 1956 IH 240

    I use 90w in my 240. It holds not quite 5 gallons. There is a small allen head plug in the right hand side of the case about 2/3 to 3/4 of the way up at the back of the case almost hidden by the Fasthitch mounting plate. Pull that plug and add until oil starts to run out the hole. when you get...

    YT DOT don't look

    Yes, sir, they have been moved. They took the lights off the back and welded them to a small piece of plate, drilled a couple of holes an re-mounted them. I think I like them like that, the more I look at it.

    YT DOT don't look

    Farmerjohn, that's my good friends 1966 Series II D-12. Its a fine tractor and it belonged to his Dad. These two tractors ( my 240) farmed side by side when we were kids. Its a proud feeling to see them all prettied-up and sitting side by side again. He and I have restored these two and another...

    YT DOT don't look

    Thanks again, for your help, Kevin. This thing was far more massive than I expected. The wheel weights are doubled on each side AND there is water in the tires. That became evident on the test drive. In the good news department, the T/A decided to start working. The seller told me this tractor...

    Fuel gauge for 6 volt positive ground system

    I?m having trouble locating a fuel gauge for the 240. I found the sending unit at Steiner?s. The part number I have is 371056R91. What I?m seeing in every description is that it?s for 12v negative ground systems. Can anybody point me in the right direction for this? This is the Rochester...

    RPRU

    I went Saturday. It was hot and humid even for an Alabama boy. I was thrilled and disappointed at the same time: the tractors that were there were awesome but, I?m guessing, due to Father?s Day, many people packed up and headed for the barn Friday. From the pics I?ve seen there weren?t near as...

    Super C hydraulics

    I picked up a 53 SC yesterday. It took a little work to get it going and it has a flooding issue. It has a front mounted blade that raises and lowers with the cultivator arms. The only hydraulic function that works normally is the Fasthitch tilt. The fast hitch lift and the blade...

    240 Utility/ Farmall air cleaner assembly

    I’m looking for a 240 Utility/ Farmall air cleaner assembly. I’ve discovered that the pristine one I have been holding on to fits a C / Super C. I’ll be glad to trade if anybody has what I need.
