6 months ago I bought my first IH product. '68 Fleetstar 2010a, 478 w/ a 5 speed (75k on the clock), 16' hydraulic dump bed, knuckle boom crane. I bought it for my forestry business, and it's been a real treat (other than fuel costs lol). For last season I hauled about 130 cord of split firewood, 200 cord worth of logs, and a fair bit of slash/brush. It's slow, hot, and stinky, but man I love it! I purchased it from fellow member Edward Porter (through local Craigslist post), I believe he was the original owner of it. Since then, I've made only minor repairs (air leaks, power steering hose, lights, alternator, etc) and only added some side boards (built out of metal stakes, plywood side boards, and 2x6" top rails), and put in some Hella offroad headlights. Plans are to keep the ol girl going for another 10-15 years at least! She's a work horse, and a show truck all in one. It does well for hauling, rolling advertisement, parades, and cruising!

Hi. I have an IH 1455XL which I have taken apart, because it jumps out of gear, typically 3rd and 4th. When I opened it between the gearbox and the bell housing, the bolt with the Big head stopping the top shaft from the gearbox, had came loose. The thread was totally gone. Also the head had pushed agianst the Bell housing and made a crack and a dent. I have bought a new bolt with the big head, that I can put in the shaft with some loctite. Does anyone know the tightening torque for this and how I tighten it without the shaft in the gearbox turning? Could this be the reason it jumps out of gear? From a video on YouTube, I have seen that there are three small pins behind the bolt against the bell housing. Does anyone know what their function are? Thanks

I picked up this IH 3800 Industrial Backhoe Last week.. Doesn't run well. Pretty smokey with strong unburnt fuel smell.. Almost like there is a exhaust valve open.. Have valve cover gaskets ordered so can get in there and check it out and adjust the valves if needed. I just got in the Owner, parts and engine service manuals (D282).. Looking for a transmission manual and injection pump manual and if possible a brake master cylinder manual (MICO) The machine had a fine layer of what I assume is dried oil and dirt which is about 1/8" thick over everywhere under the machine. I've taken a 4400psi pressure washer to it and the stuff is stuck on really, really well.. I started to think it's some sort of undercoating.. I have never seen such tenacious grime is that is the case.. I then went thru and greased every fitting I could find with Mobil CMM moly grease. The paint is really nice and shiny under the stuff. I am in need of a transmission filter and hydraulic filter. Any known dealers for Industrial IH products left? I started a facebook group.. There is nearly no information on these really cool machines..

So long story short, I was able to buy back my grandfathers 1972 ih 664. He bought it used in 1974 and traded it in on a brand new 1980 ih 686. The only info we had was it was sold to a farm 15 minutes south of our dealer. Well 42 years later a fellow ih collector here in Ontario Canada calls me and said I found your tractor. So we went to look at it verified it was it (the custom step and the dealer sticker ) and bought it back at the auction. (+ 2 other tractors) currently it’s in my shop getting all the hydraulic fluids and filters changed. It will never leave the farm again and will sit beside the tractor it was traded in on as well as the other 664 I brought back from Texas in 2020(there only 8 units apart by sin) funny how one went south one came north

Hello everyone, my brother and I are working on restoring an International 1944 UD-14 power unit. Does anyone know where I could find a pdf of the owners manual? We have the service manuals but would really like to own the owners/operators. If anyone has any rare info on this these D461 engines or (especially) the UD-14 also I would be ecstatic. First time poster so I believe it wont allow me to post pictures yet.

I'm not familiar with the Farmall H, Super H, H-TA, HD, etc. I have a general idea of how to operate one but it's the gear pattern that has me perplexed. I've only operated a Super C at the moment and have plans to buy a Super H so, I want to know at least the basics of like, what gear is where and what I need to maintain after (number of hours). if anyone could help me figure out the H, Super H, HD, H-TA, etc. that'd be helpful.

link to archived topic Ok so my old topic was archived. I figured I would start another to show my latest task. A 263 punched out to 291cid. So this is where I am at at this point tractor is split. Awaiting on parts from machine shop. Short block is assembled. This is not your normal 291, it has no Reliance parts. It has custom built pistons with modern .062, .062 and 3mm oil rings. NOS crank and rod bearings. Compression is right at 9:1, I have thermo coatings on the chambers, piston tops and exhaust ports. It has extreme duty valve in the head (Stainless) with good quality seats and broze valve stem bushings. Cam is a Vogul regrind.

The left hand side of the draft sensing shaft is leaking on my 886. Can this o-ring be replaced from the outside or do I need to drain the rear frame and remove the PTO to replace it from the inside?

Hello, I'm having some problems with a 1984 UK ih 885xl. The problem is with the 3pt lift. Basically it is slow to lift. Raise the lever and it could take 10/20 seconds or more before it will lift up. Revving up the engine helps sometimes but not always. It doesn't matter whether there is a load or not. An other thing is, it drops really quick and violently. The two things may be linked. Once the lift has gone up and you drop down the lever, the lift just drops (not the full way to the ground, to the position you have the lever at) there is no resistance to the drop. Seems more or less free fall to me. An other thing that may be related is if look at the lever linkages under the tractor there is one rod that is not connected to anything. I've tried to take pictures of it. The rod is leaning on the axle. We have had the hydraulic filter and fuild changed and a mesh part that was in where the filter us changed to because it had split. It a new tractor to us. Only on the farm a few months. Apart from the lift problem is a great little tractor. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Hey guys does anyone know how to read this serial number. Guy has an engine for sale and is advertising it as a 436 but the serial on the block says otherwise. I know the top number shows it being a block from a truck. Why are there 2 serial numbers? Anyone know how to read the bottom number? He claims it came out of a 1460 combine

I have a new IH U-123 Power Unit with Pulley Assembly that was used as a teaching aid in an ag engineering lab its whole life. It was used to teach the basics of valve adjustment, timing, etc. It has always been under roof. I am to the age that I am ready to down-size my lab equipment including this IH engine. I hope to find a large IH collector that would like to add it to his/her collection. I do not know the value of this one-of-a-kind engine assembly. I also have the original Operator's Manual and serial number information if someone is interested. I can be contacted at 830-644-2555 (landline, no texts) or send an email to GFC4320@hotmail.com

So first off I have never posted anything to a forum ever. So I have no idea if I’m in the right area. I pulled this cab off an old 806 I’m putting a clutch in the owner doesn’t want it. I was going to scrap the cab and I pulled the glass out. The glass that is broken is the right side pane, the rear, and the upper door glass ps. If there’s no interest I’ll take it to the scrap yard by Friday. Email me phil2875g@gmail.com. I’m thinking $200. obo... thanks

Hello everyone - Greetings from Charlotte, NC. Unfortunately, my father passed away recently (he was 58) and I'm left with three Internationals: 1966 806D (pictured), 1967 806D, 1974 1466 These tractors were never show ponies - always work horses on a dairy. He bought the '66 806 before I was born (I'm 29). Because of this, they're all in need of a good amount of work - particularly the 806s, they both need a new clutch. I don't want to sell the tractors - I'd like to keep them and restore as I find time & money. Although I spent the first 20 years of my life milking cows, stacking hay, and cutting silage - I stepped away from that after college and now work in engineering. It's safe to say that these old tractors inspired my fascination with engineering and mechanical stuff. My first goal is to get them all running - some have been sitting for a few years, but were all running when parked. The '66 806 just required a new battery and a shot of ether to fire right up. I suspect the others will be the same. This will take years of work and tons of money, but hopefully it'll be worth it in the end. I'm sure I'll need the help and support of this community. Pictures of the other tractors to come shortly. Thanks, -Chad

Howdy, I'm new here but not new to the Red World! I am currently in the middle of restoring a "L54-A" plow to use with my 1953 Cub. The "Correct Police" may squawk at the "L54-A" identification, but I choose to label it thus since my plow is composed of components from both the Lowboy L-54 and the regular Cub 54-A Grader plow. That said, I have also posted a video of my progress so far on my youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/ourpassthyme I look forward to enjoying this site and getting to know some of the others here. -Tom The direct link to the video can be found here:
