    Which Ford loader models were normally fitted to pre-65 4000 Industrial tractors?

    Hello again. I hit "Post reply" on the previous message before I attached a photo of the diff on the 4030, for reference.

    Which Ford loader models were normally fitted to pre-65 4000 Industrial tractors?

    Thanks for that info, Tony. It has been a long time, but you may recall that you once found a boom cylinder for me for a 723 backhoe I bought without one. You brought it to IL while you were on a long trip and transferred it to me at a tractor show near the IL/IN state line. RE: the...

    Need help identifying correct colors for pre-65 Ford 4000s

    Hi all. I have two four-cylinder 4000 Industrials I am restoring. When finished, they will be used, not shown, but I still want them to look decent. One was originally red and buff, the other was blue and yellow. I would like to match the original colors as closely as I reasonably can. Two...

    Paint for pre-1965 4000 Industrials

    Hi all. I have two four-cylinder 4000 Industrials I am restoring. One was originally red and buff, the other was blue and yellow. I would like to match the original colors as closely as I reasonably can. Two questions: 1) Are the correct colors available off-the-shelf anywhere, or do I need to...

    Which carb is correct for a 4 cylinder 4000 Industrial?

    Andy, thank you for that additional info. I greatly appreciate it. Is the document containing the pages you photographed still available for purchase, either as paper or a (pdf?) file?

    Which carb is correct for a 4 cylinder 4000 Industrial?

    Wow! Thanks to all of you for that info. It appears that the TSX-813 I have in hand will work, once it is rebuilt. Side note: The manifold on the tractor I bought is present, but not usable. I have one that I just pulled out of my attic, and the TSX-813 *will* bolt to it, which is a relief. The...

    Which carb is correct for a 4 cylinder 4000 Industrial?

    Hi all. I just bought a '63 4000 Industrial tractor that is missing the carburetor. I have an old Marvel-Schebler TSX-813 carburetor that I took off of another 4000 Industrial years ago, but that tractor had been subject to a lot of part swapping before I got it, so I would like to confirm that...

    Which Ford loader models were normally fitted to pre-65 4000 Industrial tractors?

    I do agree. I also agree that the 730 deserves the word "classic". It is just a better-looking design than, say, the 703. I will probably buy this one or another one that is not as rough. Thank you for the heads-up..

    Which Ford loader models were normally fitted to pre-65 4000 Industrial tractors?

    Thanks - I did not know that. I guess the first gear on my 860 will have to do, then. It has always worked, but I think it would work better if I had a way to make the tractor barely creep forward. Another topic - does anyone recognize the model of the loader on the 2000 industrial in the...

    Which Ford loader models were normally fitted to pre-65 4000 Industrial tractors?

    Thank you both for that additional info. If anyone is interested, the full model and serial numbers are 4030 3 and 162653. I think the serial number makes it a 1962 example. The loader on it was produced by "The Parsons Company", a division of the Koehring Company. The things that induced me to...

    Which Ford loader models were normally fitted to pre-65 4000 Industrial tractors?

    Thanks. I have a 4140 with the 712 loader, but the 4030 is new to me. I bought it because it has the Elenco front axle on it. I will look for a 725 loader. I know of a 730 that is for sale - will that one definitely not work?

    Which Ford loader models were normally fitted to pre-65 4000 Industrial tractors?

    Hi all. I just bought a four-cylinder 4000 Industrial tractor. The exact model is 4030. I neglected to write down the serial number, so I don't know the exact year. But the sheet metal looks like the 801 sheet metal, so I *think* it is a 61 or 62. It has a non-Ford loader on it that looks very...

    NAA losing hydraulic fluid.

    Thank you guys for posting that info. I have the same problem on both of my 800s. Since the hundreds are very similar to the NAA/Jubilee, is it OK for me to apply your advice to Eckert to my own tractors? Thanks in advance.
