    I ordered a new clutch and pressure plate for my 841 on ebay. As soon as I hooked up the linkage, I could tell the pedal was low and the clutch didn't seem to disengage the whole way. Adjusting the clevis on the clutch rod didn't help; the pedal would stop before hitting the running board, but...

    Ford 841 pricing?

    I'm looking at a 1960 unknown engine (as of right now) 841 with FEL and rear weights. The ad says 12 volt, so I guess it's a diesel. Tires also good from pics, and they say it "runs excellent." Thanks a bunch! You're the best!

    59 Ford 841 died, won't start

    This one is pretty much original, with an added front-end loader. It's been converted to 12V, but I'm pretty sure the starter is the original 6V unit, which seems like a fairly common practice. It has not been hard to start, but a couple days ago after an hour of loader work, it lost power and...
