MY TC40D is now almost 12 years old. Over the last couple of years something has been changing in that the fan has begun to hit the radiator plastic shroud. Can't really seem to see what may be causing it as either the engine/fan would have had to have moved or the radiator moved. Both are...

One of my steps has broken of for the second time now. The repair last time was extremely difficult due to the "out of position" weld that had to be done. I'm wondering if anyone has pulled their platform, and if so, was it very difficult or first required removal of loads of other...

I have a very old 6' International (commercial/industrial) rear 3-pt blade in need of a new cutting edge. The existing edge is a single (cannot be flipped) as the holes are offset significanlty toward the top edge of the cutting edge and the entire piece sits in sort of a detent in the...

Would others agree that it would be nice if there was a "Forum Jump" window not only at the bottom-right of most forums, but also at the top. Or, simply relocate the existing one to the top. Often, I see all the threads I'm interested in and am ready to jump to the next, but are forced to...

Without getting into DCAs and a comprehensive diesel-specific coolant discussion, does anyone know if you can use the newer gold fluid in place of the traditional green stuff in our newer TC-series tractors. I'm pretty sure the orange stuff is defineately off-limits, but I thougth the gold can...

I'm on my second replacment light for my TC-40D as I've again caught it on some low-hanging branches. At least this time I can salvage the light case, but not the orange and orange/red lens. Apparently the light is a Speaker model 295, but I can't find anyplace to buy it other than the dealer...

No I'm not refering to the weather or the Angels or the Good Lord weeping! My problem is that I've got a small leak of hydraulic fluid coming from high up on the hydro transmission on my TC-40D. When I park the tractor after an hour or so of useage, I get several drips/a very small puddle...

During this past ice-storm, I had plenty of opportunity to use my 13 kW PTO generator, with somewhat mixed and disappointing results. In the past I've powered the entire house including about 22,000 BTU of air conditioning, a freezer, 2 refrigerators, washer, electric drier, microwave, etc with...

Has anyone else noted the sporadically slow times to load even the home page? Specific forums sometimes are even slower. Sometimes I just quit and leave the site altogether and when I do so, others site instantanly load, so I know it's not my PC or our T1 connection.

Mike, <font color="blue">(MikePA)</font> you (rightfully so) killed my post, or should I say, put the final nail in - as others shot it up so badly it was unrecognizable. And this, a second time, for the same thing was done a while ago on my previous post on the same subject. </font><font...

What has happened to Amsoils fluid. GSX posted in my previous post: </font><font color="blue" class="small">( By looking on Amsoil's new website today.... AMSOIL Synthetic Tractor Hydraulic/Transmission Oil is recommended for the replacement of, but not limited to, the following oils: ARCO...

For all Ford and NH Tractor Owners with the infamous leaking block! I put up with it for years on my Ford 1720 and for almost 4 on my TC 40D. I tried several fixes, including new plugs, teflon tape, blue silicone sealant, pipe dope, etc, all to no avail. ...But, I think I've got it by-golly...

See the note below in response to my original question to Amsoil. I was ready to jump on the Amsoil bandwagon when I change my fluid soon, but desire to have better low temperature operation that would be provide by Super-UDT or M2C200. ... back to the drawing board...

Does anyone know if Kubota's Super UDT meets NH's F200 spec? I know TSC's UTF does not say theirs does. Is super UDT really pure synthetic or a blend? How about F200?

I have an old Fergeson Sherman 14A plow that I thought was a two-bottom 14" plow. However, my cousin did a measurement and although the cutting edge for each moldboard is about 15" long, it certainly will not cut two paths each that wide, because of the angle. It looks like q path of about 12"...
