Also Have A Case DC Questions

[Jon Vidulich]

I just purchased the tractor a day ago and know little about them. What I do know is that it's missing the center link "3pt" mount and the front end is riged on there different that in probably should be (Rides and sits like a hotrod). So where would I find a replacement mount and how do I get that front to sit right. Some close-up photo's of what it should look like or what I'm missing would be great. Thanks.

It might be easier if you posted some pictures of the front and back of your tractor. You could also do a search on Case DC in the tractor photos and you might see how some look.

I tried to add some photo's ealier, but couldn't do to registration. Hope it works this time. I did look at every dc photo online, well, practically anyway. All I can tell is that somethings not right and it looks as though mine was missing pieces and someone made it fit anyway (Cutting, welding, etc...)

For some reason I can't seem to get my photo's to work on here. If someone could clue me in I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

top link is different than most has bracker that bolts over the top cover of pto clutch AND FOR CORRECT lifting on 3 point (eagle hitch) an optional attachment bracker fits OVER the pto. Naturaly this is not used when the pto is necessary. I wonder if your front is possibly the DC 4 front A wide front sitting somewhat under thr radiator normaly used for plowing. Really need pictures

If you have a DC4 which had a forged non adjustable front axle It could be missing the center bolster spacer that was used with 38" rear tires. They sometimes broke and were just discarded. As always pics. really help.

Well, no matter what I do I just can't seem to post a photo on here the normal way. I thought my tractor problems were frustrating. The photos are on Flikr.com at this link http://www.flickr.com/photos/49230613@N02/

I just took a quick walk though one of my Case DC junkyards here in NY(I have many DCs laying around the woods and fields in NY and MI). I'd like to have a DC with the foot-clutch option, but never came across one cheap.

I picked one with a wide-front, one without and also an old all-fuel DC with no rear Eagle hitch.

I can't get that link to work either.

Finally figured out how to post the photo's with some help. So here they are. I've seen at least 3 different wide front end styles on the DC4's. Are there really that many or are people just making most fit? Thanks for the help so far.

Jon, loks like you have frt.axel from a " D". look how the spindles are made . The part where the bearings set is to the top. Our Factory DC 4 had that part of it at the botom of the casting , which will help to raise the front end & help it to steer easier. HTH

By looking at your pictures, it appears that your tractor may have origionally had a tricycle front end. It does still have the correct receiver for the hand crank for one.
