JWB- Yes I did and they are a bear to get to, especially when torqued to about 250 ft. lbs. also the four on the side that bolts the rear cross-member to the final are almost as bad. Thought I might carefully apply a little pressure horizonally with a porta-power in the area where the draw bar attac...

I am in the process of rebuilding the steering clutches in my 67 JD 350 (straoght). I have removed all the bolts as outlined in the manual, but the final drive will not separate from the clutch housing. It is STUCK to say the least. I have tryed comventional methods ie- attempting to drive screwdriv...

went to a Nauga Farm to find the Nauga hide. Just like years ago there was a Nap animal. Man caught one with dirty hands and found out the fine skin cleaned his hands well. The beginning of the Napskin. The shirt sleeve was invented later. Yes, slick sleeves are common here in the south, especially...

I glued the the foam to the wood bases. I am in the process to sew the corners of the naugahide material. I am doing the sewing by hand with thicker botton-hole thread. Any one know what a nauga looks like? I have never seen one, but there must be a lot of them around since there are so many seats ...

A 1957 40c ????????? You sure?

Thanks for the reply, kinda what I was thinking, however needed some reassurance.

My local Tractor Supply sells an oil called ACCEL 303 Tractor Hydraulic Transmission Fluid. Does anyone know if this is comparable to the John Deere Type 303 Special Purpose Oil that the manual for my 350 (Straight) calls for in basically everything except the engine? (hydraulics, reverser, transmis...

Gotcha, thanks for clearing that up.

Forgive my ignorance; I live in the SE United States and we only speak one language (Southern), but what in the heck is a liner ass? I read, with interest, all post on this site and don't want to miss understand anything.

Lavoy, I have the steering clutch adjusting gauge from you for my 420, will the same gauge work on a 350 job I am about to start?

Speaking for myself. I would never attempt what you are trying to do without the correct manual for the unit your working on. Even then its hard enough. My two cents.

Thanks DaveP, Possibly I missed it, I'll check again. Sometimes I'm having so much fun with it, I don't pay real close attention to things like filters, and trees behind me and such. I have a number of trees that I wanted to save with the bark skinned after backing into them.

My 350 dozer is making the same noise you describe. It's a little hard to determine just where the noise is coming from, but its somewhere in the hydrolic system. My dozer does not have a filter inside the reservoir, all reference in my manual that refers to this filter is associated with a loader. ...

My bad; I should have said LGP and LT. Thanks Guys.

Probably a dumb question to many, but I see dozers designated as LP, or LPG, (example 450 LPG). What do these terms signify?
