I just traded for a 52 model TO30. I didn't notice until I made the deal that it must have had a cracked block. It looks like bondo or something over it. It had just been painted and not noticable at first. How much would a block cost for such a tractor? Z129 engine. It doesn't appear to be leaking at this time. Also the hydrolics for the 3point hitch is very slow to raise the equip. and won't at idle speed. Is there something I can do for that besides replaceing it?

I own a TO-20 and my Brother in law owns a TO-30. Both had cracked blocks when purchased. We were able to weld the TO-30 with out any problems. My TO-20 on the other hand didn't fair as well. After repeated attempts the welds between the cylinders wouldn't work. It ended up being 3 thousands off on one of the mains. I did find a block for it but it was very hard to find and very expensive. If the block isn't leaking you are better off keeping it. These tractors have a tendency to crack in between the cylinders. the only way to see that is if you drop the oil pan. It can be welded but it is very hard. Good luck.
