Hello. My dad and I are swapping the engine in our 4430 with a 466 out of a Titan II 6620. We're running into the problem that the bolts in the engine that attach to the frame rails are different sizes. The new engine takes larger bolts, which won't fit in the holes in the current frame rails.
We got some 4450 frame rails from the junkyard, but this brought up a new problem. The holes that attach the steering unit are also bigger on the 50 series rails.
So right now we're stumped-the stock frame rail holes are too small to attach to the block, the 50 series rails are oversized for attaching to the steering motor.
I was just wondering if anyone here had attempted to put this kind of engine into this tractor, and how you fixed this issue.
Thanks!
