I'm looking for the part number on a 12v starter for a 1955 model 860. The starter would not spin and starting smoking, so instead of rebuilding, I'd rather replace. If anyone have the number I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!!
 
12V was not factory on a 55. It was on a 58 - 64 01 or 000 diesel. Try looking up the diesel starter # on the CNH website.
 
(quoted from post at 04:43:57 07/06/16) 12V was not factory on a 55. It was on a 58 - 64 01 or 000 diesel. Try looking up the diesel starter # on the CNH website.

I tried that it is shows a starter that doesn't look like mine. The current starter is stamped "Ford 10" and has a "reman" round sticker. I called a local used/new dealer - said used $100 and new $175. A friend at advanced said they could match up a ford truck starter from probably the 70's and would fit - around $60.

Any recommendations or is there a guide to 6v converted to 12v parts? Thanks.

Buy a replacement "6 volt" starter that matches the original. Most people who convert to 12 volts leave the original 6 volt starter on the tractor and they work fine for many years. To produce the same amount of energy for starting the engine, the starter will take less current (amps) when connected to a 12 volt battery than when it is connected to a 6 volt battery, and it is too much current (amps) that can burn out a motor, not too much voltage.
