    Farmall H charging system

    My 1948 Farmall H has not been charging the battery when it is running. I suspected the 6-volt generator was at fault, but a trip to the local armature and electric shop revealed the generator was working properly. Upon further inspection on my tractor, I found that the field resistor in the...

    Fast hitch plows

    I am new to using a fast hitch plow and am wondering how one goes about leveling the plow from front to back. Seems to me with the fast hitch arms pivoting at a single point under the tractor, the rear of a fast hitch plow will move up and down more than the front of the plow when changing the...

    McCormick Model 209 Fast Hitch Moldboard Plow

    I am considering the purchase of this plow. From photos I have seen it appears to be in fairly descent shape. I was wondering if anyone on this forum had any pros or cons regarding this model of IH plow. I would only use it at occasional plow days. It does have Super Chief bottoms. Can a person...

    Transporting a ZTU

    I am planning to take my ZTU to a tractor show and was wondering how similar folks have strapped the front end of a ZTU down to the trailer. I don't see any apparent place on the front end to hook the chains to. Any suggestions? Thanks

    ZTU coolant issue

    My ZTU has a coolant foaming problem after it warms up. Since I did not know the previous history of the coolant, I drained the cooling system, flushed it with fresh water, then put in Prestone radiator flush solution and ran the tractor for a while. Drained and flushed the system again before...

    Torque amplifier replacement/rebuild

    I am looking at the possible purchase of a Farmall 400. The owner says he does not think the TA works. What would be a ball park figure for the cost to replace or rebuild the TA on a 400 Farmall? Thanks

    Identify IH cutter/chopper

    I came across these photos of an IH cutter/chopper on the internet. Does anyone know the model number of this cutter? I assume this was marketed during the late 50s and early 60s. Was this IH's fast hitch version of a brush hog? Seems to have a lot of clearance underneath. Anyone have any...

    Oliver plow shares

    Can anyone tell me if there is a difference between Raydex R14-R plowshares and Raydex RB14-R plowshares? Are they interchangeable? I currently have R14-R shares on my plow but know a source where I can buy RB14-R shares. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Silver King tractor models

    I am considering a purchase of either a Model 41 or Model 42 Silver King tractor. I don't know much about these tractors other than the fact the the Model 42 replaced the Model 41. Are there major differences between these models other than the apparent styling differences. My wife's grandfather...

    Farmall F20 rear wheels

    This is really just a general question regarding the unstyled Farmalls. Did any of them come from the factory with the cast iron wheel centers and, if so, what were the earliest ones (i.e., what year) that did. My primary interest is with the F20s. Thanks for any info you can share.

    Cockshutt shop manual

    I recently purchased a Cockshutt 30 and would like to get a service manual for it. Is there any significant difference between the Cockshutt factory service manual and the I & T aftermarket shop manual? Which should I purchase? Do you folks have any preference for one over the other? Thanks

    Questions about Farmall 240

    Does a Farmall 240 fast-hitch utilize the "small" points like the Super C did? Also, I have seen Farmall 240s with two different wide front end assemblies. Were there two options from the factory or is one of these wide front assemblies from another model or from an after market supplier...

    Too much for my trailer?

    I have an 18' bumper-pull trailer with 3500# axles and I utilize a weight distribution hitch. I would like to haul a Farmall 460 row crop tractor (about 5600# with no added weights). Is this going to push the max weight of the trailer too much? I don't want to possibly damage the trailer. Thanks...

    Farmall 340 PTO

    I am looking at a Farmall 340 that is for sale. The PTO runs quietly and smoothly when in gear, but when first disengaged there is some chattering that is noticeable. Is this simply a need to adjust the linkage on the PTO lever or is something more serious probably involved? Thanks for any input...

    Allis B horsepower

    When looking at the Nebraska test data for the Allis B, the 1938 test lists the drawbar horsepower as about 13 hp while the 1950 test lists it as 19.5 hp. Does anyone know when the increased horsepower B was marketed? If I want to purchase a B with the greater horsepower, what years of...

    Oil filter for ZTU

    I recently purchased a ZTU and understand that the conventional cartridge-type oil filter is no longer available. I also understand that the "sock-type" filter that is available is not considered by many to be an adequate filter. I am not sure how the new "Adapter" that uses a conventional...
