ky966boy Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 I backed her in shop for a winter project. Getting paint , stickers , muffler eliminator and lights working. The more I look at it the better shape it is think some one took care of it and the 3200 hrs on tach maybe right. At the risk of getting whipped on I’m thinking about painting roof red . I did a cabbed 1086 like that once and liked it . Does some kind of insulation go under bottom of the roof it looks like maybe something did . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gafarm49 Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Yes fehr has a listing for the roof insulation. Nice tractor, I love my 986 4post 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.B. Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 If it doesn't have a turbo I would not put an eliminator on it. I've heard they are really loud just being a NA engine. If it has been upgrade with a turbo then an eliminator is the way to go, as it's not much louder without the muffler on a turbo tractor. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CIHTECH Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 You will have to (a) remove oil cooler to get drain fitting threaded into block or (b) get creative. I have cut the barded portion of fitting off, then cut threads down into elbow. Once you've done that you can thread a barded fitting into elbow fitting. May have to shorten barded fitting or drain tube to make this work can't remember anymore, been years since I added a turbo to a 400 series engine.
