Okay guys I'm new to the forum and maybe I'm posting this in the wrong area. I have a 1969 (?) Ford 3000 tractor that I have owned for many years. When I purchased it the entire front metal work was bent up pretty bad. I would like to replace it and repaint the tractor. The tractor runs great, it was overhauled just before I bought it but it sure looks like heck!!
Does any one know where a guy can purchase used parts for a reasonable price for these tractors? I think they would call it the Radiator surround, but not sure. Pretty much need everything in front of the hood as far as sheet metal is concerned. Also, the steering is getting VERY hard to turn. Where can I get it rebuilt reasonably? I would love to find the parts to convert to power steering if possible.
I'm located in North Central Minnesota if that makes a difference.
Thanks for the help,
WW

Do you have manual or power steering? if manual.. it likely just needs new thrust bearings.. not too bad a job to R&R a ford manual steering box..

For sheet metal.. check out ebay.

Radiator cowl is probably still available from CNH.

Aftermarket power steering for many old fords is available from jackson power steering.

TBN is a great place for most modern tractors, and you can still get lots of questions answered inthe New holland section for legacy ford products.. however for a solely 'ford' community.. hit ytmag.com and go to the ford section.. ( a couple members here hang out in both places.. etc.. )
