440 Parts.. In Alaska
440 Parts.. In Alaska
Picked up my 440 icd yesterday. Deffinately not putting the 2-53 back in looking at other engine options. Just looks way easier to stuff something way more simple and easier to get parts for.. That being said the 2-53 I have has been rebuilt. New head, blower looks to have been gone thru, I have a spare block that's rebuildable, crank, complete cylinder head, water pump, fuel pump, second head, bell housing, fly wheel, starter, generator, fuel/oil filters. $750 takes it all..

Hi,

One hellava deal, though!

There is not much on the planet easier to get parts for than a 2-53 Detroit. Only other engine choice is original gas engine.

If your coming down to Edmonton I have a home for it. We still sell a few Detroit motors every year and still have lots of parts.

Re: 440 Parts.. In Alaska
2-53 may be easy in your neck of the woods but very uncommon here.. I'd spend hundreds trying to get the linkages and all the other specific stuff for 2-53 to go in there again. did some measuring today. She's getting my spare M-29 weasel engine. Straight 6 torque. Super easy and cheap parts and run forever.. it will convert fuel into quiet power minus the noise! Can someone please email me pictures of there radiator installed so I can figure out how mine mounts? Book pictures aren't very good
Re: 440 Parts.. In Alaska
which mount are you looking for????? if gas engine mounted radiator advise and i will try to get several pics and get posted here. not sure if you getting switched from diesel to gas and mounting rad..my 440 is 2 cylinder gas...and if different kind of engine how you run hydraulics and etc ????? not sure gonna work
Re: 440 Parts.. In Alaska
You will spend way more in cobbling in an engine that does not bolt up to the Deere bellhousing, and all the other incidentals necessary for the conversion. Then you have the hyd pump issue as well.
The only one of the throttle parts that won't fit in a Priority Mail Flat Rate box for $16 or so is the long throttle rod.

Re: 440 Parts.. In Alaska
Lol,. I've got $100 into it and I've got a running 440 on Studebaker power.. Just need to put the radiator back in it and order up my hydraulic pump. Once that pump is installed I can adjust the brake band's and clutch linkage and see if I need to call you again and order up some parts or not. ![Shocked :shock:](./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)

Re: 440 Parts.. In Alaska
Oh there is no JD bellhousing.. It goes Studebaker engine/Studebaker trans/baby drive shaft/Studebaker yoke splined to input shaft driving the john deere trans.. Wish I knew how to post pictures on here Its actually a really nice fit. ![Cool 8)](./images/smilies/icon_cool.gif)
