Well guys, saw this jewel at the local wal-mart last night. Parked in a no parking zone right up close to the store for all to see. How many issues can you see wrong? My wife said I was way more excited to capture this than I should be.

Started draining the oil. This is what I ended up with. This all started with deciding to fix an oil leak. The line from the radiator to the oil filter housing was leaking through the hose. I got the section of rubber replaced, but when I pulled the line off I noticed the oil was pretty bad.

Hey guys, I haven't been around for awhile, mainly due to the mobile app not working on my phone anymore. But, I've been messing with my 3500 industrial again. It has the 4 speed with a torque convertor in it, I have a line leaking. It is the line that goes from the lower left side of the...

So I wasn't sure where to post this at, but here goes. I have an old craftsman "electric hand saw" (6.5" circular saw) that I need a trigger switch for. I have already pulled apart the old one and tried to repair it. It worked for a couple used and then quit on me again. I'm having trouble...

Figured I'd throw up a little post before I try to get some sleep. The day is finally coming up, getting married tomorrow to my gf of the last 6 years! Hope everyone's Saturday goes as good as mine!

Here's a couple pics of the assembly. As much as I'd hate to, I would even consider going to a different system, but I don't know what I would need to do it.

Hey guys, I posted a couple days ago about a valve I couldn't I'd. Found out from tractor tech that they were Gannon gold seal valves. One of the spools is cracked and I'm having trouble locating just the spool or even a whole valve for that matter. Anyone have any ideas?

Hello, I'm usually in the Ford area of the site but thought I would jump up here and see if any one recognized these valves. They are off of my Ford 3500 industrial. There are three if them on a big manifold, but I'm not finding a manufacturer or I'd numbers anywhere on them. This tractor...

Hey guys, I'm trying to locate a replacement remote valve for my 3500, but I don't see any manufacturer makings on it and the parts manual doesn't have this type. Does anyone recognize these? They are in a bank of three mounted on a manifold mounted on the top cover of the rear end.

So it turns out that one of my spools is cracked. Can anyone identify what make these are? I couldn't find a tag or stamp or anything

Does anyone have an idea where I can find a pinion pilot/support bearing for my 3500? Looks like the original part number is c5nn4625b and supercedes to 81824478. Messicks couldn't find one, local bearing house couldn't find one. The bearing itself says Hoffmann L6017. I have an email sent off...

Had some nasty goo too. Sorry about the two posts. Still trying to figure out the app.

Just adding back to the thread. Pulled apart the rear axles the other day. I had a sneaky suspicion that the seals were probably shot, they were. Outter bearings were full of oil. Bearings are shot too. Anyone heard of aftermarket wheel bearings for these? Made up a socket for the axle nut...

Hey fellas. Been awhile since I posted anything, because honestly the tractor has just been sitting. But now I need it so it's a big push to get it up and going. I will be using this thread to hopefully document some of the things I've been doing to help others as a visual guide. Keep in mind...

Hey guys, i've been lookin around for parts for my tractor and todays search has been for tires. My rear tires are 14.9-24, pretty simple, not bad to find. But I don't know what size should be on the front of it. It has auto tires on it right now. I think they are 245 75 16 (just from memory)...
