Mystery Tractor ? Alis Chalmers B110 ?

mikebarr · Jun 22, 2021

Looking to ID this ol beast so I can track down a transmission. It was sold by a (*&^%$#&^!) to a unsuspecting single mom who was told the seller would get it running - Guess what - took her cash dumped the machine in her driveway and disapeared. Told her it was a "B110 Chalmers" Everything has been painted over. The AC B110's i have found on the internet seem to be belt drive but this is a shaft drive. There is a single hydraulic cylinder underneath the mid section to - ?lift a mower ? lift a 3 pt hitch? There is a clutch driven, belt drive, Hyd pump off the front of the engine to drive the bucket hydraulics but presently the clutch doesn't operate.

The engine runs well but the transmission has no power - will spin the wheels F & R when lifted but you can stop them with a hand at full throttle.
My wish is to ID the creature, get a manual and hopefully track down a transmission or rebuild to get it working for her.
Any suggestions welcome! Pls help!

Is it really worth the $$$ to repair it?

Browse the web as I have seen trans available out there.
Won't be cheap however and I gather that spare parts are not generally offered.
As long as that engine is OK since it has a FEL a new/used tranny might be a viable exercise.

That has the Eaton 8 or 11 hst. Looks like the 11. If it is the 11 there some still around. If you take it apart make sure you do not mex up the balls they have to go back into same spot. I might have a manual for the 11. They were real good trans and a ton of them sold.
