    New steering cylinders

    Just put new steering cylinders on my 72' 4110. They don't have grease zerks on the ball joint that connects to the radius rod (joint closest to the operators stand) Should i use a needle and grease these? Or are the built to be greaseless? Or do i go all out and drill and tap for a zerk on the...

    Frost-free hydrants

An injection molded plastic that clamps around the supply line and the stand pipe and provides a clean void space for riser evacuation manufacture claims its equivalent to nine square feet of washed...

    71 3000 diesel plastic fuel line help

    Your ferrules look to be pretty grooved thus they wont make a good seal between the nut and base. IF the plastic line is in good shape (somewhat flexible) remove the insert and take the ferrules off. Take it all to NAPA and get new ferrules. Place new ferrules on and replace the insert. The...

    Oil "Full" mark

    I was starting very simply to make sure I wasn't doing something really dumb, ie: over filling to the wrong mark. Compression test is on my to-do list, I "feel" like it must have decent compression because it starts right up even in chilly weather and has what I would call reasonable blow-by...

    Oil "Full" mark

    I have not done a by the book oil change yet, it is on my list of things to try. This tractor has the cast iron pan, does anyone know if the book oil quantities are still the same between the stamped and cast pans? thanks

    Oil "Full" mark

    1792 Ford 4110. Excuse my ignorance but which mark is actually full on the dipstick. I have the operators manual and the IT manual but everything says to the "full" mark. Well to me there are 3 "marks" on my dipstick. I've attached a picture of my dipstick and labeled the marks At #1 and below...

    Ford 4110 front bolster

    did a little test fitting tonight and i have a question. Threads are tight like really tight. So i checked them, cleaned them up a bit and it's still tight, though maybe the threads are cut like pipe thread. Anyways, brought it up to 300 ft lbs per the manual and its only threaded about 2/3 of...

    Ford 4110 front bolster

    Was able to pick up a bolster from Cook Tractor (the one on the right in the pictures) while the part/cast number comes back to the correct/useable part and all critical measurements are the same, the replacement has a slot cut into it and a mount. Anyone know what this was for. I can't find...

    Ford 4110 front bolster

    This is a 1972 4110 LCG but at some point its been put on AG tires and based on pictures of more "true" LCG's the outer axles and spindles have been replaced with what seem to be a more standard AG tractor height. The axle pin passes through the front of the bolster through the mid axle then...

    Radiator shroud help.

    You are correct. this was just a step i was taking to check for combustion gases entering the cooling system. I believe the correct level is .5 to 1 inch over the tubes.

    Radiator shroud help.

    I did fear that there was some form of combustion gases getting in to the coolant system via head gasket or a crack/cavitation pit somewhere so I spent quite a bit of time trying to make sure that was not the case. I used the combustion gas test liquid, never could get it to change color no...

    Radiator shroud help.

    I'm glad you suggested this route, I was preparing to take the nose and radiator off to get the shroud on then adjust. I have a look at doing it your way. Thanks!

    Radiator shroud help.

    Hello all, I've been working on what I thought was a 1972 3000 diesel. turns out its a 1972 4110 diesel, that has been placed on AG tires, that's mostly aside from this post though. I was chasing down the coolant foaming in the radiator, turned out that the thermostat removed at some point in...
