    Bad Noise in 3000 D

    Update: Oil drained and strained, No metal! The plug had a magnet. The magnet had a minimal amount of dust, actually less than I would have suspected if there weren't a problem. Refilled with oil and worked with the brush-cutter about 45 minutes without a problem or noise. Either I'm the...

    Bad Noise in 3000 D

    MAN ! Do I feel stupid ! Just checked the tranny, and fluid was as you suspected. Put what oil I had on hand in and made a quick pass around with no noise. Wonder what I damaged? Thanks .. Matt

    Bad Noise in 3000 D

    Well, I just went to get her out of the field. Had to go in reverse to keep the noise away till I could get the bush-hog off. One time it made the sound when in neutral and not rolling with the clutch out. I'm pretty much convinced now it is in the clutch. I was hoping brakes because it feels...

    Bad Noise in 3000 D

    Earlier today working the driveway with the blade a couple of times I had a strange noise but only in reverse. Later hooked up the bush-hog and was in the field I started getting it occasionally going forward. After I got the recording device it didn't do it fro some time. Now it seems to be...

    3000 D Hyd. Pump

    Thanks JMOR, As soon as I get a chance I'll pull the lift cover again and see if I can figure where I went wrong. I'll also check that unloader valve this time. Reading here, that seems to be a common cause of problems. Y'all have likely saved me from buying a pump kit and getting into a job...

    3000 D Hyd. Pump

    As before Ultradog, thanks, More on the noise: When I checked Saturday night in the dark there was no implement on the lift. I can try it today with a bushog or something heavy on. The pressure drop is when the lift is being let down. Is that not expected? The best description I have of the...

    3000 D Hyd. Pump

    Just checked, 2000 PSI at the bleed plug, no load on the lift. Lots of the tapping noise at the 2000. Tapping noise lessens in volume and frequency as the control lever is let down as well as the pressure drops. I can still hear the noise around 1000. With no load the needle is very jumpy around...

    3000 D Hyd. Pump

    Thanks Ultradog, Makes sense, You are always there with a quick and good answer. I might be able to temporarily rob a gauge from my press. Check at the bleed plug?

    3000 D Hyd. Pump

    Hi All, The lift on my 65, 3000 has been having times lately when it refuses to pick up. This is during use when everything is warm. If I just wait and work the lever it will eventually start working again. Has been around a year since I put a cover kit in and cleaned the filter and new oil...

    3000 ford, what to look for when buying.....

    Here is how to check that pivot pin http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSp1f7Vfm_U It's wasn't a trivial job for me. After a few hours with a borrowed 3/4" impact and a big rosebud I still had to cut it out as the spacer sleeve was seized to the pin. I had started spraying the area weeks before...

    Heat houser

    Good job George, How do you like your Terramite? I see a lot of negative stuff online about them but I'm extremely impressed with the work my old T5B has done in the last year or so that I've had it. Here is my 3000D yesterday pulling a dump trailer (finished yesterday) the terramite quickly...

    Help with a new toy for behind Ford tractor

    Kyle, Have you looked at this site http://www.pronovost.qc.ca/remhra.html The PUMA-347AG is real close to what I have in mind to build. Except for using a winch and mast for dumping, similar to this one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPxhIMvKwJ8 I wonder if the mast pivoted where it...

    Help with a new toy for behind Ford tractor

    Kyle, I need the exact same thing. Thinking about building it. I have an old Terramite that I have found to be a terrific machine, but it takes a long time to move any significant amount of material / dirt any distance with the 1/4 yd bucket. But it would be a nimble machine to load a trailer...

    3000 PS, Install, Extra parts?

    Thanks, I'm just surprised to be furnished something they could sell later. That's unusual. The instructions were somewhat brief. Do y'all use universal hydro/trans 134 oil in these units?

    3000 PS, Install, Extra parts?

    I just finished installing the Turkey kit from Craftons. Good people to deal with, thanks UD. Realized I have the some extra pieces. 4 appear to be seals, 4 are small aluminum washers and one O ring. Do you think these are spare parts? They aren't mentioned in the instructions and I didn't see...

    Power Steering kit for a 3000, recommendations please

    I got the kit from Crafton. Nice people to deal with and saved a little by taking Ultradog's route. Thanks UD. I hope to get time to put it on next week. I have a couple of questions for the more experienced. It looks like the supply hose from the reservoir will run between the back of the...

    Power Steering kit for a 3000, recommendations please

    I'm considering an aftermarket PS add to my 65, 3000D. I would appreciate hearing about any experiences. Looking on Ebay there are a few sellers and the price varies some. Are all these kits from the same place and of the same quality? Seller Bill Crafton seems consistently to have the best...
