The picture I got shows an open area under the sediment bowl. But another picture shows that it has the Pump in place upstream of distributor. What would be the cost to get the hydraulics back in place? Has traditional flat drawbar with IH hitch plate attached [Reply]   [No Email]

Can you spot a control handle to right of the instrument panel? Without a belt pulley gear box there's more space under the tank. [Reply]  [No Email]

The valves are up under the hood, in front of the instrument cluster. The reservoir is the base of the steering pedestal. Look carefully for hydraulic lines running from the pump back along the engine, up the rear of the engine, and disappearing under the hood. If there are no hydraulic lines, the pump is probably burned up from running dry. That's $800+ right there. If the rest of the parts are also missing, your only choice is to go to a salvage yard and cannibalize them off another 300. Then you're at the mercy of the yard owner on price. [Reply]  [No Email]
