Randy is that a 664?

Rick this is scary, but I agree with you!!!

I've hear some diesel shops use the pump off of a 5.9 Cummins as a replacement.

I have 5 IH tractors with a German diesel. The only 2 things I can say bad about them is They slobber bad when Idling around a lot, and they Stink especially when working up high in using a front end loader for scaffolding.

George the 544 "row-crop" (hi-utility) had a extra step. Check the parts manual and see if one of these would work. I know where a 544 utility row-crop is in a salvage yard and I'll be glad to check on it for you.

I've never seen a front axle trussed like that. Reminds me of a truss front the front axle of 4wd trucks that were popular in the 70s

You need to be able to pull the T/A lever back to the low side. It helps when the transmission is in a bind to relieve the pressure so you can shift easier.

My uncle was a dealer. But ease of working on IH tractors. I've run other brands and have spent a lot of time on John Deeres. IH tractors start easier, has more torque rise, and a far better draft control system. If I couldn't run old IH tractors I'd run blue.

Steve Boulanger's Leatherneck Binder and his 154 lowboy. I sold him a rearend and transmission out of a 886. Note the hood on the 154 is styled like a 1066. Steve's attention to detail is great. Note the taillights and tailgate on this CJ-5

Look on ebay or a literature dealer for a 544/656 hydro troubleshooting guide. It will save you money.

One salesman here used to say there's 2 kinds of seller's 1 has to sell and 1 would like to sell.

The 5088 is more in the 1086 hp range.
