51 utu pictures

fireman18 · Mar 18, 2012

I am looking for pictures of 51 lp gas utu or years that have same decal placement gauge placement things of this sort. My tractor has had work done to it in the past and Im not sure if the decals were put on in the correct places and before I finish it up I want to make sure the new decals are in the correct place on the new paint. Also my ignition swith label that was on it is not like one the I have seen at part places. It is held in place by the top screw on the gauge panel and the ones I have seen are round and are held on by the switch nut. Any help will greatly be appreciated.

If it has louvered sides the decals go above the hinge, or on the hood itself. If has non louvered the decals are down lower, on the side. Most important make sure it reads Minneapolis- Moline U on both sides. Anotherwords the letter U will be near the front of the hood on manifold side and the letter U will be near the back of the hood on the distributor side.

I think there is a decal placement page on minneapolis-moline dot com

Great job Mark! I just bought a late '51 U with the same Char-Lyn power steering that is on yours, so I really appreciate this picture. I plan to have mine looking like this a few years down the road. Good work on making this tractor as original as possible, I really enjoy a properly restored Moline.
