    MD Power Steering

    Hi Guys, I'm researching options to add PS to my MD. I'm fine with buying a used setup but after searching they seem pretty rare. With the way an MD is configured looks like one off a standard M would require lots of MacGuyvering to make it work. I want something like the Char-Lynn setup that...

    Hy-Tran...I give up

    5 gallon buckets of the Shell stuff are $140 at the dealer now. Doesn't even look or smell the same as the old Akcela stuff. I'm done bending over for some wonder fluid that supposedly cures cancer and will bring world peace. It's on to the white bucket premium NAPA fluid for me, still...

    MD valve recession spec

    I've been looking all over for a spec on intake & exhaust valve recession for a Farmall MD. The head is at the machine shop and they're installing new valves & seats. They work on a lot of Farmalls, but they can't find any info on the recession spec. for an MD. Anyone out there have...

    Farmall M Thermostat

    Photos of a replacement thermostat on an M (actually an MD, but same configuration). The tractor did not have a thermostat in it so I bought this new one. It doesn't look like it will function correctly when installed, as the neck of the thermostat seats into the outlet for the bypass (see 3rd...

    Mounting 2000 loader on 656

    Any tips on the easiest method for mounting the loader? It is all set up for the 656, I just need to put it on. Seems like I always need to do a lot of screwing around with a second loader tractor to get a loader mounted, and Im thinking there must be an easier way. Also, Im going to plumb...

    656 Iron Bull ROPS & canopy

    Thinking about ordering one; anyone have one? Are they well built? I have a Laurin ROPS on my 656 currently, and it keeps breaking mounting bolts on the axle. Would like to get a "factory correct" one.

    Gehl 1865 second cutting tricks

    Hi All, I posted here a while back about a Gehl 1865 round baler I purchased. I made 75 first cutting bales with it, and it worked great. Now I'm getting ready to start second cutting, and I'm wondering if there's any tricks to making good bales out of the shorter hay. It seems like the...

    Gehl 1860 round baler opinions

    I bought a Gehl 1860 at auction. Seems to be in very good shape and the price was within my budget. I printed out a manual. Looking around the web, I can't find much information from people who have actually used these balers. Does anyone have any opinions and tips for operation? Are they a...

    farmall 504 hydraulic problems

    Was loading manure with the farmall 504 today when the lower bolt that holds the remote valve stack together broke, spraying fluid all over. I took the stack apart and replaced the bolt. It was a grade 8 bolt, so I was surprised it would break in that situation. Put everything back together...

    what to look for - round baler

    My wife and I made 3500 small squares last year. After stacking all that, I decided it's time to look for a round baler. Usually I pick up equipment at auction, and repair what's needed to make it reliable. I'd like to spend less than $2k, so expecting I'll be getting an older fixer-upper for...

    Working to bring a 1924 10-20 back to life. Ran when parked 5 years ago but rusty fuel tank kept clogging line. Decided to get it going again this winter. E4a magneto was stuck so I took it apart and cleaned it up. The armature had rusted some and was stuck where it rotates along the face of...

    banjo bolt tightness?

    Have a 656D with a roosamaster pump. Was leaking at banjo fittings so I installed new sealing washers. That stopped it for a few months, but now they are leaking again. Tried loosening them until fuel squirted, then tightening them down. Did this 3 or 4 times. Still leaks. Drip drip is the same...

    stub guards for ih990

    I've gone through the old posts on this site and think stub guards would help keep my mower from clogging in wet/thick hay. I'm mowing about 20 acres of orchardgrass/timothy/alfalfa mix, and 10 acres of thick clover. I've adjusted everything as well as I can, but grass will hang up on the points...
