I ended up using the frame from an 1850 wheatland, nice and roomy and works great!

Hello.. THe swap you mention is not all that bad... You will need an 1850 diesel(or White 2-85, 2-105) bellhousing to 3 speed adapter, 1850 flyweel and flywheel housing. Your best bet is to find a motor out of an 1850 or White. YOur input shaft in your tractor does not need changed but your pto drive hub will have be from 1850 or White. If you call Maibach tractor at (800)808-9934 and ask for Rudy or Brad they will help you. THey understand everything you need.. If it help any, I changed the tin on one of my 2-105's to Oliver 1955 tinwork.. Only tough spot was the bottom of the front side panels as they would not go around the radiator mount. But that was easy to fix. There is also a fellow on here that goes by ol' George that told me he has a tub out of a 2-105 and may have more of the parts you need... Marc

I live in Manitoba Canada so it is probably far from you so shipping large or heavy parts would be expesive. Thanks.

I know nothing BUT, a friend of mine is in need of a block for his 940 MM. I understand that it's the same engine that's in your 1855. Perhaps he can help with the $$ on your conversion.

Felix:
They�re some more knowledgeable on this subject than myself around here.

Reads like you need another tractor! If your 1855 is Waukesha powered you';; need an 1850 tub and bell-housing too begin with. The engine-bell-housing assemblies mounts are different between the two of them for beginnings. Most likely starter mount will be different also. Then hood, and ?????

I can�t help more and not totally positive this far. I suggest you�re looking over an 1850 to see the differences.

We have a 354 Perkins in our 1755 fwa. Not sure how it was done or which 1850 was used, but it does work very well. Exhaust comes out side though.
