Hi all,

I have a 44 Case SC and am in need of a shift knob.

Any idea where I can find one.

Thanks
Dave in the north

If it's the thread-on type and it's the same one that fits the 1949 model SC, you can get them for around $4.00 each from V a l u - b i l t Tractor parts. They are the same ones that fit the old Fords.

I went to my case dealer and he had a box of various used shifter knobs for $1.25 each. I had a 1$ bill and a 10$ bill in my wallet. He gave me my choice for one dollar! I think I found a real nice shifter knob for that price. This is a neat dealership - original Case man who switched to construction equipment when things started changing. He has a lot of historic photos and a large cast iron eagle in his showroom. They restore an old Case tractor every few years and donate it to the Agriculture Hall of Fame a few miles away. (Coleman Equipment in Bonner Springs, KS - for those that are wondering). The grandson of the owner goes to the same church I do so I've asked him to set up a meeting with his grandad for me so I can get a history lesson.

By the way - the shift lever on my 48 S was not threaded, it was definitely intended to have a pressed on knob. After cleaning the old grease and grime off my new-used knob, I drilled a hole in it slightly smaller than the lever and pounded it on with a rubber mallet.

It's not factory spec, and is more round than it should be, but for 1$, it couldn't look any better!

They should be available at any Case IH dealership. I don't remember the part # but SC's DC's and 400's all use the same one. I think they are about $13.00.

For my LAs, I found that the one TSC has in stock for Ford is an exact replacement. I don't have any of the smaller Cases, so I don't know what yours looks like. One tip - if your shift lever knob is gone and there is a very rough looking end on the lever, you are probably seeing the threaded insert from the old knob. Usually you can grab it with vise grips and unscrew it.

Hey Robert,

I was in Tractor Supply Co. yesterday- but I forgot to look for shift knobs. Thanks for the heads-up. I've got to return a grounding strap I didn't use and I'll swap for what I need.

The weirdest thing happened to my (original) shift knob the other day- the outer cover split and fell off. I didn't know it... but there's a turned wood inner core for the old knob.

Speaking of TSC: I found out today that the Ford/White push button starter switch is an exact replacement for the SC starter switch, too!

Robert,

The end of the lever is knurled, I will check out what you have recommended. But I will still keep my fingers crossed.

Its time to replace the old eight ball(=

The end of the shift lever is not knurled .If you see a knurl you are looking at whats left of the old knob . If you cut or grid this on one side it will screw off and you will have good threads for a new knob.worked for me
