Sounds like two legged thieves to me. I doubt even a crow could cut the head off let alone carry it away. One of our friends had someone dig up his sweet potatoes last year. Sorry for your loss.

I bet your serial number suffix is cc for heavy tillage third gear. Not sure either when the factory installed the 560 upgrades, but an old time IH parts guy told me about the factory program to install the upgrade parts in a tent set up at dealerships. A diamond shape stamped on the serial tag indicates the tractor went through the upgrade program. My 1959 560 serial 17,XXX s z cc has the diamond stamp. I am the second owner (since 1972) so I can’t ask the original owner about it any more and my parts guy friend died a few years ago. I asked him what all was in the upgrade and he said it was a whole wooden crate full of parts but didn’t know what all was in it. I really miss being able to visit with him…..his blood was IH red!

Some folks eat it. (not me). Kind of like mushrooms I guess.

Don’t know anything about your vise, but man if that thing could talk!

I’m going to say June 2 1967?

Now that is a HOOT!

Something else I would check is where the tight spot is between the rotor and the concave. I believe the recommended spot is about 7 o’clock as viewed from the rear, but your owners manual can confirm that. I have found that to be not so important in corn or beans, but can help with the thresh in wheat. Also some varieties just plain thresh hard. Good luck.

We have a 13 explorer. Same color as that one even. Love it! Very comfortable, great handling and 22 to 23mpg. Probably a $10,000 car if in good condition. You have room there to invest in a lot of parts! Good luck.

Yeah. Solution looking for a problem IMO.

I like it. What holds them down? Baxter, my border collie would jump totally from the cab to the ground, except for the time he caught his left hind leg in the second step of the 8920. No broken bones, but a cut to the bone that took a dozen stitches to close. We have to watch out for our best friends.

I like my Hesston 956a. Makes good solid bales and has been fairly reliable. The net wrap is simple, but you need a strong back to load it. Bearings are generic....I have gotten them from deere and mother case as well as from a jobber when needed. It will bale almost anything, so you do have to watch moisture! The newer versions are Agco and Massey. Good luck.

The cab solenoid on these can get weak keeping the fuel shut off from working properly too. Had that happen to my 8920. Good luck.

Do the frame rails have two bolts on the bottom side? Mechanically that is where the most strength would be needed.

The later 2366’s had heavier finals and and rear axle and were pretty much the same as a 2388 except for being a little lighter weight because of the smaller rotor, narrower auger bed and narrower shoe. I would think you would be fine with the 8 row head. Good luck.

Did you check the sleeve standout when the head was off? There were shims supplied for adjusting sleeve protrusion above the block. I did put a head gasket on one of those upside down once, but the oil came out the side of the engine.....a lot of oil.....really fast. Learned a valuable lesson! Good luck.

Sorry for your loss. I am not a metallurgist, but I think I would be concerned that the metal frame of the loader could have lost it’s temper in the fire. A process called annealing......when it is heated up and allowed to cool slowly. Good luck.

Might be left hand thread.?

I think my 886 was in the 13,000 serial range. Wonder if the steps on that one were changed......the wide ones were a lot safer.
-
Which tachometer does it have? I had a 78 model 886 once with the narrow steps yet. The tachometer in mine was the digital readout style with a rotating knob rather than the touch buttons that my 79 1086 had. Lots of subtle and not so subtle changes in the 86 model run! I put a six pad 986 clutch in mine when the pto splines wore out. Beautiful tractor!

I have run my scx 100 16’ moco with a 756 in all kinds of conditions. Handles it just fine. I would think the torbo’d 706 will too.

I never owned one, but I did set up quite a few new ones while working for two different International dealers. I remember putting herbicide and insecticide boxes on them as well as installing whistles on the seed delivery tubes to indicate a plugged tube.
junk equipment saves the day.

Not familiar with the New Holland balers, but you had to shut down the pto with the Vermeer 605F between bales or the belts would skin the twine off the bale as there was no kicker. Baler design and function has come a long way since!
