Good Afternoon, Tractor Gurus!
I've inherited a kinda-sorta-vintage Ford Tractor along with the island that I am now managing in the Abacos Bahahahamas. It's a GREAT unit--runs perfectly....EXCEPT, I suspect a blown freeze plug. This is going to necessitate cracking the unit in half and, as such, I want to make as sure as possible that I have the necessary parts on island prior to performing such major surgery. Also, I am a FIRM believer in having the official Shop Manuals for as Much equipment as possible, so I'm also hoping to find that. But in order to do any of the above, I need to know without doubt what exactly IT IS.
I cannot for the life of me get this program to post photos. Arrgggghh.
Anyway, the info is as follows:
the vin plate says: Top line: C481474. Second line: K5011F, followed by 5J26B. Third line: 5G07C. Fourth line: 5H21B, then 5B26C. Fifth line blank. Then, in raised lettering on a plate on the starboard side of the block: D4NN 6015F, then stamped into the block below this, also starboard side is what I believe to be the VIN: K764329. Elsewhere on the tractor, there is, on the transmission (?): D3NN 7006C, 957E-4033A, and "N20 1 75 C5 NN 4024Y MH"
