Ford tractor fender lights ??

JayinNY · Jan 22, 2011

Anyone know if a GE holagon light under a tractor fender has a replaceable bulb? Its on my Ford 4610, (see pic) I wasent sure if they were sealed, or replaceable. One worked then just stoped last summer. The nut holding it on is rusted so I havent taken it apart yet, just thought someone might know. Thanks J,,,,, PS ford guys, I looked at a bunch of ford tractors around here, and in fastline, and tractor house, and they all have there fenders mounted like mine, height wise. LOL

Typically will be a sealed beam held is a rubber/neoprene holder. # will most likely be printed on back of sealed beam. NAPA, etc. should have them.

They're just a standard 55W 4" sealed beam; readily available at any truck parts store.

So I have to replace the whole thing? Thanks Rod. J

Just work a screwdriver in between the sealed beam and the rubber gromett... or mabey two, then pop it out. Unhook the wires and off you go to town. You may not get a 'Halogen' with the exact same part number but you will find a 55 watt of that diameter that will do good enough. Probably about 10 bucks.
You don't want to remove the complete light assembly because you'll probably bust the fixture... and that's not so common. Probably have to see the mafia rep. to get one and you'll pay... so just pop the sealed beam out.
You may also want to pay close attention to the ground wires on the fixture and the power wire for that matter... It's not at all uncommon to have bad/broken connections on those things. If the grounds are bad I usually run a new ground directly off the sealed beam, through the rubber and off to a solid piece of chassis somewhere... NOT the fender.

I guess I should have said I traded my round fenders for these flat top ones, so I wired them to power in the wire harness by the gear shifters were I found power. The scrap yard just cut the wires off on the fenders. I know its just another cob on my part, the hood lights work fine, never replaced a bulb since I got the tractor in 1990. Ever feel over welmed? I have my fingers in to many pies I guess.

Heres what it looked like with the round fenders, no weights and a tarp canopy after the wind riped off the canvas one!

I thought it was odd to see both grill and fender mounted lights on the same tractor.
