MT Matt Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 More repairs. Replaced an axle seal on the Super MTA. I have a friend who has a crane on his shop truck. Made taking off the wheel/hub easy. And then on to the belly pump in the H. Needed the seal replaced. The seal was straight forward but the pump gears seemed to have a catch to them when turned. It was smooth before taking off the coupler. So I had to go into the pump body and clean that out. Didn’t hurt anything to do that. Had dirt buildup in it so everything is completely clean now. And whatever the catch was, it’s smooth again. The tractor is back together and ready to go. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TN Hillbilly Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Hauled some small squares in with the Super M and C. 806 doesn't belong to us, it was just here to get painted, but we had to move it out of the way to back the hay in. Had a little shower of rain, but not enough to hurt the hay. Noticed a one point you could see 5 IH tractors lounging around the barn, with the sun setting behind. But by that point, my phone battery was dead... 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DT Fan Posted June 2 Author Share Posted June 2 Got the H loaded up ready to head to the pull tomorrow, with a little extra difficulty! Put a new sediment bowl on it when I got it home. It got some crap in the throat that would not pass and would not let enough fuel through to make it run. Drained the tank and tore the sediment bowl apart, think it's clean now. Acid test tomorrow morning. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

utility 64 Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Attention ; it leans :hello: By my house in the South West of France in the high Pyrenees towards Lourdes, farmers must exploit their land in very steep places at the risk of losing their lives there. To maintain these grounds, despite the presence of Reform or AEBI brand mountain machines; most farmers do not hesitate to use their conventional agricultural tractors which are widened for the occasion. In summer, these photos give the appearance of postcards with these green landscapes, but it is advisable to take the hat off to these people who work 7 days a week with complicated climatic conditions, especially in winter with the cattle sometimes subjected to certain predators that shepherds do not like to see. If these people were not there , the mountain would be invaded by brambles , predators and tourism would take a big hit . It will also allow to highlight the harshness of the work of these "forgotten" people and clinging to their mountain 😎 So I allow myself to put some pictures of mountain reds from a farm where in the area there are other reds 😎 I came across this farm's Facebook site by chance and wanted to let you know; especially when red is honored with a beautiful little Farmall 75 A and a Farmall 95 C. It's going to change from the great plains where we are used to seeing Magnum, Puma, Axial Flow type gear ..... Here is the link where you will find the few photos I posted below Photo taken from the steering wheel of the Farmall 75 A 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DT Fan Posted June 5 Author Share Posted June 5 Changed the points in the 782. Been mowing 2-3 acres of lawn with it since 2014? First time I've done that. Gave it some other regular maintenance. Raised the deck with the leveling screw one turn, satisfied with that. For the $650 I invested in this thing it has cut A LOT of grass!!! Got the H out and played with it a bit. Pondering my tire options, have three sets of 9-bolt duals. Don't think any of them are going to work however. Just need to find a decent set of 15.5's or 16.9x38'S. The picture is of a 18.4x34, a lot of tire! After that it went to the shop for hitch height adjustment. Finally I checked the ground speed with the hand held gps. Wide open in second gear is 4.5 MPH, will be trying that at the next pull! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
