White 2-155

Was there a clutch assist ever offered for these tractors? Never use to push too hard, but had a new clutch and pressure plate put in two years because plate wouldn't hold any more and clutch would slip, it has pushed hard ever since. Probably 500- 600 hours since clutch work. Would like to know if there was some type of clutch assist ever offered on these tractors to make the pedal push easier, kind of hard on old worn out knees, Thanks for any help or information.

Not a White, but this is the handle I made for my 3 JD field tractors when I broke my ankle. All the pressure goes on the pedal, rather than the attaching bolts. It does not interfere with a non-handicapped operator. It"s also in the AgrAbility archives, another source for operator assist devices.

Hi Moline_guy.....long time no type lol. My cousins 2-135 is the same way with the clutch. One of them even asked me if there was a way a guy could put a small assist cylinder on it. It isn't bad for regular field work, but for baling and anything you have to back up or stop a lot for, it gets to you after while as you already know.

I guess that could be an alternative, we use the tractor for bunching bales and on the manure spreader in the fall, would take some getting use to but definitely looks like it would work. Thanks for taking the time to post the picture.

Hello, been a while yes. Hope all is well over your way, and those MM's are treating you right. Haven't been following the MM board much, if you added to the fleet or not. If you get too many, I will gladly take that 670 off your hands. Our IH tractors have an assist cylinder and even Dads vista had an assist cylinder on it, I am not sure why white didn't continue this, or the replacement pressure plates have that much more spring power added to keep the dry clutch from slipping, I am not sure. We bunch a lot of bales in the summer with it, that is where it raises heck with the knees, in the fall it is on the spreader, so not so much shifting then. Tractor just turned 10,000 hours last month.

Here is a picture of it, it is a series one, but previous owner attempted to make it look like a series 3. We have had it around 15 years.
