    Roof Ridge/Cap Wind Driven Leak

    I would think if you only blocked a few smaller areas of the ridge vent it not be enough to be noticeable and no side effects you would want to be sure the fasteners are not loose though.

    JD 1530 will not stay in reverse

    Good point, basically any pivot points in the shift lever wear over time so there will be several wear points. On my tractor the shift lever moved forewared and back plus side to side there was noticeable wear in those pins also contributing to the sloppyness of the shifter.

    JD 1530 will not stay in reverse

    Wonder if the ball on the end of the shift lever is worn looks like its replaceable. On my International I had to build up the end of the shift lever with weld as there was not a replaceable tip.

    Frost heave?

    If you took out one door could you mount the existing other door on the inside of the wall keeping more snow and water away. Then still bury styrofoam underneath where the bottom of the door is when closed.

If so there should be an adjustment you can do to tighten up the pto brake my 350 has a cover on the pto housing with 2 adjustment screws under it for this purpose the owners manual lists the procedure if...

    1957 INTERNATIONAL 350 UTILITY SHIFT LEVER

    Just an update I took a shot and welded up the tip and shaped it to what I thought would be close looking at a picture of a used one. It took some fitting and grinding several times it now goes into and out of gear without getting out of the shift rails but 4th and 5th seem a bit hard will see...

    I have a shift lever issue with my new to me 350 utility when I shift the tractor the lever has extra play once in gear and I have to play with the lever to get it back out of gear at times.

    Lowboy smoking

    I believe Farmall was part of International Harvestor they rotated the rear axle forward and shortened the front spindles on the Farmall cub to get the lower clearance to make the loboy.

    Cub Loboy Seat Question

    I have a friend who has a loboy tractor the serial number puts it in as a 1960 model. When I search this tractor I can't find one with a seat like this one has wondering if anyone has seen one like this was it an option or maybe added later or am I missing something in my search?
