thanks jd joe. yeah i was think 1500 lbs. i know when it was on my 440ic crawler and you popped the clutch it would pop a wheelie. but i only had it on there for a coulpe days and i took it off and took the front bucket and put the old girl in the shop to work on the steering clutches. i just got th...

does anybody know how much a old henry backhoe would weigh? i am think around 1500 to 2000 lbs? thanks brad

I have a Henry Manufacturing Company back hoe model c 10 H for sale. SN. 5281 It came off of a JD440ic crawler and i am not going to put it back on. when it was on it work fine other then one hose that was busted and when i took it off the crawler i had to cut the hose that connected to the crawler ...

i just got one from lavoy and i did not really know what it was going to look like but when i got it, it did look like it was something that i could make, like what you want to do. but it was not much at all from him and i really did not have to time to do it. but lavoy can hook you up.

Ok i know that this is a dumb question but hang with me i am learning. this is my first crawler and am learning. ok so how do you go about setting the fingers on the steering clutch pressure plate. i have replaced the fiber disk and the steel disk and am ready to bolt up the new pressure plate. wher...

ok yeah i am going to have to replace the pressure plate. and get the gauge. thanks for everybodys input.

yes i did replace them with the right number as far as i know. there was 7 fiber disk and metal disk. 7 fiber and 6 metal that is what the book also said. it is sn 448076 there was no slop in the linkage but i did not set the height of the fingers. maybe that is were i went wrong. did not know about...

yes i did back off the brake band. i had to screw out aall together. i can feel when the through out bearing starts to push on the finger and i can feel pressure on the fingers the whole time but it does not release the clutch. i am wondering if the pressure plate has some crap on it to maybe where ...

ok so i am working on my 440ic and the left track would turn and work good other then it would not engage the clutch to turn to the left. so i took the final drive off and the brake band was worn to where there was no lining on it at all. so i talked to lavoy and he has been great on getting me part...

I bought a JD 440ic and with it it had a backhoe on it. I did not know what kind it was. I took it off to get it the crawler in the garage to work on the crawler. I was out looking at the backhoe and found a plate on it. It says HENRY Manufacturing. and model c 10 H I saw somewhere on the internet t...

hey chuck you are right. i did not think about that. that is why when you pull the steering lever it disengages the power to that track and pulls the brake. Yeah i am looking into replacing the clutches and brakes. i just need to find time to do it all. thanks everybody for the input.

ok that is fine i think that will be put on the back burner for a while because i have to work on the brakes and steering clutches first then i may try to find some. thanks guys

I just got the left final drive off my 440ic. I found about an inch of slug in the bottom, with some oil. as well as the whole brake linning in little pieces. so where do i get the brake linnings and how much. and as far as the oil i know that there has to be an oil seal in the steering clutch housi...

I need the 2 bolt pads. i was just wondering what they would cost. not really high on the list of things that i have to do but was just wanting to get some info. for later if i decide to change them. thanks

i was looking at my crawler and not knowing how many owners had it and what they did with it, there are different thickness of track shoes and a hand full that are like 2 inches wider then the ones that are to be ono there. so i was wondering where can you get the shoes if i were to replace them. al...
