I was moving some things around last night and went to move the 5088 and 8370. When I lifted it up I heard a pop and looked back and the head was hanging to one side. Broke another spring. Guess I get to do it again
Thanks guys for the replies I ordered the spring from allstates and got it installed. The was 2 flat spots on the cast plug so I was able to torch the old spring off in those spots without damaging the threads for the spring. Plugs threaded easily into the new spring.
I picked up a older 8370 Case IH Mower Conditioner and one of the floatation springs is broke. A new spring from IH is about $220 with the plugs already in the end. Allstates has just the spring for $80. Wondering how tough it is to get the plugs into the spring or if its not worth messing with and just get the complete one from IH. Thanks
The 606 was only offered in a utility model not a farmall. The utility tractors had draft sensing on the 3rd link whereas farmall had it on the bottom of the arms like bigger tractors
Thanks for all the replies guys. I’ll probably keep my eyes open for a parts tractor I could rob the 3 point off. I was also staring at the back of the tractor the other day and kind of came up with a design to make my own 3 point. Maybe I’ll try that if I get some time
Has anyone ever found a aftermarket 3 point that will work on a 544 utility? I see you can still by some new add on 3 points but it looks like they mount on to the hoop style drawbar. My tractor doesn’t have that. I sure like the little tractor as it is a hydro but would really like to have a 3 point on it
Thanks guys I took the end plate off the 706 and put it on the 544 in place of the power beyond plate. The tractor works much better now. Not sure what the previous owner was thinking.
I just bought this 544 utility and it has what looks to me as a power beyond plate on the end of the remote stack. Now correct me if I’m wrong but this shouldn’t be on there with plugs in it? I either need to put a loop hose in or remove it. Is there a plate I can put on the end to make the oil loop or do I need to find a different end valve? Thanks
