I recently purchased a 1963 ford heavy duty industrial model 4140 with elenco 4 x 4 front differential, sherman trans, weight box, front loader and bucket. Does anyone know of persons in Michigan who may own a 4040 or 4140. I need information before I start to restore mine. Thanks, Don (MI)
 
Welcome to the ford tractor discussion forum. This is best place you could've come to first. I'm far from being a ford tractor expert but there are a handful of guys here who have forgotten more about ford tractors than most people will ever know! > You can ask any Question you want and as many as you want as long as you are sincere .We all have one thing in common: a passion for ford tractors and I know nothing pleases them more than seeing people(such as yourself)restoring a ford tractor instead of letting it rust in someones field!
This web page here has many parts for your tractor. The number is on the top of every page,I think!
Your tractor is basically the same as the 801 series and was what the 1801 series evolved into.So most parts are easy to find.
With your HD industrial you have a different Heavy Duty front end,different front nose and hood assembly,a heavy duty sub-frame,stronger front mounted Hydraulic pump,hydraulic tank in front of the radiator and the loader unit.
There are boneyards for tractors and quite a few places make repro parts.
I've got quiete a few parts for your tractor.(radiator,gas tank,hydro tank,front hood and side side panels.
I've even got an extra front nose piece(but who ever loses or breaks that piece).I also have the grille insert piece with the four[ F O R D ] letters!( I know that one is somewhat hard to find)If interested my email is open and I don't charge as if my parts are " gold plated" like some do.
The guy you need to talk to is Tony Jacobes.He loves to talk about the HD industrials.Oh yeah! and that Elenco 4wd system under your tractor--
He OWNS the company!
Good Luck GT65

Thanks for photos GT65. Where are you located and what is your phone number? I have my tractor tore apart right now and trying to get everything functioning. Hope to talk to you soon. Don 586 752 7919
 
Don...

Not in Michigan, but I do have a 4140 with the elenco and a loader. Its definitely not restored, and I'm still slowly working through it, so not sure how much of it is original and what has been butchered. But there are others around here very knowledgeable on these units. I'll help where I can.

Hi Don - Mike in PA here, welcome to the HDI club! I have a 4140 w/ Elenco and also a 4040 that's getting mated with another HD industrial Elenco axle. Tony J is definitely your man on the Elenco and the HDI's, but I've torn a few apart and have some parts and a little experience. Good luck with yours and feel free to get in touch - thanks, Mike 609-468-4895
 
Welcome to the forum Don, As others have said, ask all the questions you want. Lots of good Ford tractor people here. I'll also recommend Tony Jacobs especially on the Elenco system. He posts here often.

Also, a warm welcome to Mike from PA (mwhooley). Great to see you on the boards. Thanks for the PS system.

Have a 4000 ind in northern Mi. Don t use it much any more, as the case backhoe takes the place of the loader. just put a water pump and new belts on it last fall. Have an extra radiator with the cooler in the bottom, just rebuilt. Don t know if I can help or not. Mine is kind of beat up.
