I have a 5610 diesel which is one of my main modern "Get It Done" tractors. This all started as I was looking for a part catalog for the tractor. The information on the data plate on the right hood states it is Tractor # BD11310, Model LA414C, Unit 2C16B with Engine 344814 2C12. It also indicates it was made in England. Were all 5610's made in England and does that mean it is a metric tractor as well? Back to the part catalog I found reference to one for a 5610S - my tractor has the Roman Numeral II with Special below the II Decal. I believe I have heard these noted as Series 2 models around here and don't know the differences between a straight 5610, 5610S and the Series 2 models. I have seen what I believe to be casting dates on some major castings which indicates mid-year 1992 casting dates to me. Does all of this information go along with the information from the data plate? Is a 5610S part catalog the correct one for my tractor or do I need to look for something else? Where is the best source for Ford manuals and a part catalog as all I know where to look is on eBay. Any information and assistance in this matter will be greatly appreciated, Hal.
