Re: Ford 4610 cab

Hi Brian

Thanks for your reply.

Is the H pattern column change going to be difficult to remove? Also, from the pictures I have seen it looks like the handbrake is on the opposite side on the AP to the LP?

Thanks
Jeff

Ford 4610 cab

Hi

Does anybody know whether it is possible to fit a 5610 Cab onto a 4610 tractor and if so, is it a lot of trouble or is it a transplant too far!?

Thanks

Thanks for your interest.

How are winches mounted in Norway?
When I was looking for parts for the Duncan cab, I couldn't find anything!! Took about 4 months to find the glass and ended up making my own door from scratch!

Re: county 944 project

Hi

Thanks to everyone for your comments.

I reckon I put around 260 hours into the tractor, not including the time finding all the parts required!!
A thank you to the wife for trawling the internet and doing all the phone calls! :wink:

county 944 project

This is a restoration I did for a friend who wanted to use the County back in the woods after it had been standing for about 10 years. Here are some photos as the work progressed. This is when it arrived. http://i748.photobucket.com/albums/xx122/jeff4wd/280.jpg http://i748.photobucket.com/albums/xx1...

Thanks for the information.
Looks like he's gonna have to cough up for the original items as long as I can get some from County.

County Track Rods

Hi Everyone

I am repairing a County 944 for a friend and am looking for some track rod ends.

They seem to very expensive from County. Does anyone know of any track rods from another vehicle that would fit?
My friend is on a tight budget!

Any help appreciated.

Serial Number Query

Hi
I have recently bought a Ford 3000. I am having a bit of trouble figuring out the numbers on the bell housing area. They read like this:
6M22C
7A12
A146-946

Can anyone help me identify these numbers, as I cannot make any sense of them, especially the serial number?! :?

Thanks

Hi TSG

Don't know how County worked their power steering on 4000-Four, don't know of anyone who has got one.

Will try and look into it.
