  4. Just into my first cuppa at 5.30 am, in "stealth mode" in the house so as to not wake anyone May start watching this movie, I have Miss Molly the border collie nearby to save me if I get scared 😬 Paul
  5. I would think the shift tower should be pretty standard parts that can be replaced pretty easily Saying that I have never worked on one But Im guessing holes need rebushing and rod ends need replacing Paul
  6. I believe it is what I know as a Kaiser Mack Having a GM fitted wouldn't of been much of a deal for this family And I reckon the young bloke driving it would be having the time of his life Paul
  7. I use a wood chisel and a shifter (adjustable wrench in America) Paul
  8. I have had a bit of teflon tape (thread tape) almost completely block a fitting and cause issues Or even thread sealant dribble a bit If this is a issues after having put the box maybe a check a few of these things first Paul
  9. Well Joey I'm not Mech but I 100% agree with what your saying Paul
  10. Everything mentioned above Forget trying to buy a new one Should be able to get the seperate parts for inside Some times the ball and tapered cone in the pitman arm gets a groove worn in it This ball can be replaced with one with a nut on the pitman arm instead of it been riveted over Pull split pin out, unscrew the cap, and drop it all apart, clean everything up, check for busted spring and badly worn parts Replace parts as needed, re assemble America is different than the rest of the world, everyone goes to the local spare parts place with a vin number Go to a place that wrecks trucks with the parts in your hands and some tools and wander about looking for what you need I enjoy wandering about the history as much as finding a part Paul
  11. I was as well, so bought two copies, one for me and one for my mate Mine will get shoved under the tree, my mate will get his Christmas eve for his birthday when we are getting shit faced 🥳 Paul
  12. Way way back in maybe 1989 or 1990 I was driving a D9 G direct drive pulling 65' trash worker sowing sorghum on 30 inches centers Sowed 5000 acres in 14 days I felt like the king of the world up in the 9 I reckon it took over 4 hours to complete a lap at the start, the fella that owned it, took me around to his brothers family, they had three 9's sowing over 15000 acres. Ooo it was a very manly experience for a young lad Here's a video of a Washington State farmer If your not a farmer you probably won't get anything out of it, if you've grown grain or farmed for a lot of your working life you might enjoy it The family in the video is still farming and still using Cats Paul
  13. A D9 I visited recently, they are big machine and appear a lot bigger when parked inside Another little crawler of a different colour in the same shed Some more yellow things in the shed A ferral pussy flexing it's scrawny muscles Paul
  14. That would be appreciated when you get a moment Paul
  15. A good thought there, I was working on my IH farm tractor AC and put the drums of the fan on backwards I know, what a dick The fan shifted air, not a huge amount though, and was loud to boot Put the drums on the correct way and it was a changed tractor Paul

Mate, you are at the top of the class You answered everything 100% correct Sunday morning 6 am, having my first coffee, Miss Molly the border collie is fast asleep on her bed maybe 4 feet away It's 1°C outside and frosty, or as we say out here, "it's as cold as a mother in law's kiss" The Princess might appear in a couple of hours and I will then be allowed to make noise, maybe ha ha Late night Friday night, I picked up some gear boxes that I had just imported from the States And yes, exactly what was just said Still looks better than a big hole Paul
