Ford Backhoe Loader ID

Hi guys,

I need to id my tractor so that I can order parts for blown hydraulic hose. I keep finding conflicting information.

Engraved codes behind starter:
KD211F
8H16B
C582444

Raised code on right side of tractor on plates, ie. engine block, plates are screwed onto side.
8D17 (not that legible)
D5NN6015F

Raised codes on bottom side of tractor, seen by laying on back under tractor:
C9NN 6676C
26 F 8

Raised codes on left side of tractor under seat:
N W 05 04 78
D7NN4024-A
LH 1 1 4

Printed in black letters on loader arm: Ford 420

Engraved codes in aluminum looking plate on backhoe controls facing the operator's seat:
?? (series) This is really hard to read, maybe a J, maybe it was never stamped?
19-747 (component)
CB T3549 (serial)

On other side of backhoe controls, facing the arm itself, there is 504 printed in black letters.

Any help or direction would be appreciated.

At this point I'm just trying to get 2 hydraulic hoses that go into the loader control box. But I did have some foamy stuff come out of the small hydraulic arm on the loader bucket that opens the bucket lip a week or 2 ago. So I might need to clean filters and replace the hydraulic fluid itself.



Thanks,

- Ian

just take the hose(s) off and take them to a hydraulic hose shop and they will make you new hose(s).
 
Blown hose

Also, archived threads:

This one mentions a model in the late 80s but everything I've seen puts this tractor in 78.

Is the 420 a model of the entire tractor or just the loader component?

KD2 = 420
1 = diesel with vertical exhaust
1 = no PTO
F = 4x4 power reversing transmission

The tractor is a 1978 420 with a 735 loader and a 750 backhoe
