I probly should have put this picture up as the block is place to attach hoses to give pressure to the loader valve and a place for the oil to return to the system.

thanks Dick
looks like yours is a hybrid allis (lol)

I started to make an Oliver hood for it but it got put on the back burner. I have Allis C wheel centers on the rear. I plan on putting Oliver fenders on the rear also. That is if my health holds out.

Dick, why does your clutch housing look newer? Thanks for the pic I kinda needed that too.CT

Well I probly should claim the fifth. Not being real smart and a word of caution it is the second new bellhousing. If you follow my comments over the years you will get the idea that when I have a job to do I don't spend a bunch of time worrying if I have the correct tool or piece of equiptment. I get the job done.
I broke the first one digging my dock for the factory. Digging hard clay with a light tractor you use the corner of the bucket break off small amounts until you have a bucket of loose dirt/clay. That puts the loader in a twist and the loader frame bolts to the bellhousing. The second one was while tearing down a chicken coop and digging out the footer. After that we built a frame to help put the torque on both sides rather just one.

I kinda wondered about that. I've always been concerned about putting a loader on a no frame tractor no matter what size especially one with an aluminum torque housing and I was going to caution JD to make sure whatever loader he finds it will need a nice heavy inner frame structure to protect the tractor. You probably already know this but years ago when loaders started to get popular there were several H farmalls getting busted torque housings until IH changed the frames on their M&H loaders and these were frame rail tractors. Thanks for the info as always.
