Hi guys,I am in the process of restoring a ford 555 4x4 backhoe machine(1984.)can here anyone here send me a pic of the throttle linkage down on the gearbox,under the fuel tank.I have afew bits missing I think and need to see what it looks like when its together.The manual I have has a very poor black n white photo but I cant make anything out from it.From what i can see its has the foot throttle connecting somehow to a plate that is connected via a rod to the hand throttle lever?

Call Matt Porter at Schaefer Enterprizes 1-800-626-6046 or email to mattp at sewiparts.com. Matt has help me come up with parts as I am working to do a "working" restore on our 1983 JD backhoe. They are a heavy equipment graveyard and can get some new after market parts too.

Have your model and associated numbers. They are only about 100 miles from me but they ship UPS all over the country. I drove up the first time just to check them out and they passed in flying colors. My son was playing with a flying toy of my daugher's and landed on the awning across the front and two employees took a pallet and a forklift and retreived it for her. She was happy too.

Ah thanks,but Im in Scotland,Ill email them just in case they can send me a photo though
Sorry I thought you were looking for missing parts for your back hoe. Get you a factory manual off of Ebay with good pictures if you can fine one. I found CD manuals can be more clear and you can zoom them.
Yes,I got a manual ,its a usa printed book,and its around 2 inches thick,but the one photo i need to see clearly is just too dark and small lol,need a good clear colour pic of it just so I have an idea what ,if any parts are missing,I removed the engine and stripped it down a year ago,so its just being put back together now after its rebuild,unfortunatley,I never saw the machine working and cant be sure if the foot/hand throttle were working as they should.

I have a 555C 4wd of about the same vintage.
Will be a couple days and I can look take pictures if needed.
PM me would probably be best to remind me if I do not see this thing hit the top of the list again, not usually one I look at here.
I have the book from the UK as well so might have the answer there but the online above has pretty dang good pictures.
PM me if you need something additional.

If you could,that would be brilliant Alan,I tried the link above,doesnt seem to open for me,keeps asking for a 'dealer login'?
A picture of the linkage under the tank,so I can see how it went together will be just the job,thanks again!

Go find Nashville tractor's website (google is your freind) and their parts department and then they have the link there as well or Messicks does as well (I imagine that any NH dealer has it available)
I will look at what I can see, but pictures under the fuel tank are hard for me to visualize. Will look when I am home.
