I think I have found one. Salvage yard has one off an artsway they are gonna ship it to me. Thanks r190, if this one doesn’t work I’ll let you know.

Messicks does not have it, but said Hetricks shows one. Called them but did they did not have it. Can’t believe a clamp is so hard to find. Thanks for the responses, I’ll keep looking.

7 inch auger tube. It’s a very early serial number model 1150 or the same as a artsway 425.

My fil has a 1150 grinder mixer and has somehow lost one of the 3 piece auger clamps on the unload auger. Not available through case IH or artsway. Called a couple places about parts machines but no luck. It’s a 7 inch auger and each section of the clamp measures about 9.5 inches. Any ideas where To get one? Anybody here have one they would be willing to sell?

I’ll second the thorogood boots. After many years of wearing red wings, their just not as good anymore. Moc toe thorogoods with powerstep insoles are an excellent combination.

Well, I got some tires. I wasn’t able to get the firestones and avoided the malhotra as was suggested. I went with the Titans which look like good tires and are made in the USA. Hopefully they’ll last me a while. Thanks for all responses.

That’s a very good point. I don’t want a tire that rots away before the tread is worn down.

Thanks for the replies. This is almost as good as an oil thread. Just to rule them out, does a heavier ply tire have any benefit or is that just their only selling point?

Would a cheaper, say alliance radial be a better option over a bias Firestone?

This tractor gets zero road miles and no tillage. Mostly 3 point work and mowing. It seems that everyone here is recommending radials. Are they going to hold up better?

The tires on my hydro 186 finally gave out so I’m pricing a new set. Firestone and Titan are about the same price roughly 1000 per tire. Both are 8 ply bias tires. I also priced some malhotra 14 ply from gensco for about the same price. Any thoughts on these or other brands?

Ok thanks. I will pick up a seal kit and give it a shot.

4wd

5220 is dripping oil from one side of the cylinder. Will it need to be removed to fix?

Mince meat! Mmmm!!!

I just don’t find any of these plows in my area. I don’t plow a lot of acres and was thinking I could make it work. I just don’t want to tear it up in the process. Not a lot of rocks in my area but I guess it only takes one.

I am looking at a case ih 145 plow. Most I have seen don’t have any spring trip mechanism. Are they shear bolt protected? Which type is preferred or does it really matter

I have located a Mf 570 4-18 in furrow and a Ford 4-16 on land. Any thoughts or experience with these plows? How about parts availability?

Took the cover off and the o ring was blown out. One of the four bolts was broken off so maybe that was partly to blame. Got the bolt out and put it back together. No leak! I was expecting the worst. Thanks guys.

Mine was off of a 8v71 and there were a lot of different configurations. Left hand, right hand and different inlets and outlets. Send off for a rebuild and you know what you have. If your core is bad that’s a different story.

I sent mine off to be rebuilt. I can get you the name of the place if that would help. Pretty quick turnaround.

The hydro 86 has developed a leak at the cover on the rear of the steering bolster. It started pouring out kind of suddenly. Can I fix this leak by removing the cover or do I need to drop the front axle?

Welcome to the forum! Where are you located in Ky?

I have used Kendall semi synthetic this past year with good results. No issues and not much more than conventional. I don’t know if it’s necessary, but not going to hurt anything.

I hate it because it is only a couple years old, but it is not worth fixing if I have to buy any parts. I’m gonna take your advice and buy a propane heater next. When it was new I used kerosene but then switched to diesel which is what probably did it in.
