    1964 Ford 4000 Blizzard

    Six years ago I bought a generic soft cab for a two seater golf cart for $80.00. It fit perfectly over the 4 post ROPS canopy on the 445C. It works fantastic for snow removal. Would work on a tractor with a sun canopy or could build a four post frame out of EMT conduit. BTW Look at the...

    445D Loader Tractor Good & Bad?

    That's an excellent tractor. If the low hours are verified, pounce on it. I've had a two wheel drive 445C for 11 years and love it. Strong 4000 pound capacity loader, well balanced, my fuel useage is a little over one gallon per hour when doing part throttle loader or scraper work. It has a...

    Ford 535 Industrial turns over but won't start

    Question? What is the position of your throttle lever when trying to start? Approximately 1/2 throttle, or at idle? Diesels need to have throttle part way open to get enough fuel to start.

    want to add 3 point backhoe to Ford 4500

    If your 4500 has the usual model 740 front loader, the loader frame should extend out behind the rear axle about 16 inches on each side. These extensions are the subframe mounting points for the Ford 750, 753, and 755 backhoes that that were often installed on 4500's. Parts books, or the Ford...

    1990 Ford 545C

    I'm unsure of what you mean by the box. Is this a weight box on the 3 point hitch, or the front end loader bucket? If this is a weight box on the 3 point hitch, there is a wealth of information regarding those issues available by searching this site. Until the problem is resolved, the 3...
