Oliver 60rc help

Brianjbell · Jan 4, 2019

All, I'm new to Oliver. I have the opportunity to pickup a 60rc right not far down the road. Has part of a set of cultivator. Supposed to run, but haven't seen it yet. What should I be looking for and how hard are parts to come by for it? I'm used to the relative ease finding parts for a Ford. Thanks in advance.

Check the frame for cracks. They're pressed steel and cultivators are kinda hard on them. If it's a wide front look for welds and cracks. If it has 7 lug wheels they can be hard to find. Cracks in block. Particularly the left side.

From what I see a 60 should not be to hard to get parts for. Barring aside unusual items. They may not be as cheap as Ford.

There's a fair amount of stuff that is 60 only. Parts can be had if you know where to look. I completely rebuilt a 60 and the only place I was able to find engine parts like main bearings and sleeves/pistons was at Maibach Tractor in Creston OH. As far as I can tell they are the 60 tractor specialists. They treated me very well and I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them again.
