The Fordson Tractor Pages Forum

Hi Adrian, Great topic! :beer: I like my "bucket" (I don't know the correct English translation :scratchhead: ) in the lift of my tractor. http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu24/fordson1961/Diverseafbeeldingen/IMAG0659.jpg I use it to transport sand or to remove snow from our street in the winter. ...

That's a great crane!

Hi, When I removed the sleeves of my 590e, which had been out of any cooling fluid for many (30?) years, I filled the cooling fluid part with Diesel for a few weeks. I tried to remove a much as rust as I could with a little magnet. I pulled out the sleeves with the sleeve puller on the right. I beli...

Hi Dan, Welcome on board! With the help of this forum I rebuid a 590e (the 6 cylinder version of your enigine), amd I had never ever seen an engine on the inside before.. :mrgreen: Please check the "This and that about 590e"-forum on Ford Conversions. There are several pictures over there. Good luck!

Thank you so much for sharing!
Truly amazing!

I really like the picture with quite a few County's ploughing and quite a few County's waiting to get ploughing.

WOW!!
Really amazing!!

Thank you so much for sharing!
I am looking forward to your other pictures!

Hi Brian,

Have a great trip!
I am looking forward to the pictures.

Hi Henk,
No need to bring a plough over for me. At this moment I prefer cultivating....seems much easier to me.

Hi TSG,
I agree. It's really a waste of such beautifull machines...
If I take some more pictures, I'll post them on this board.

Hi guys, Thank you so much for your advices! :clap: Robert, I followed your advice and drained the gearbox. After three days I found out, that about 300 ml of oil came from the rear axle to the gearbox. :scratchhead: That's quiite more than a few drops but much less than the litre you mentioned... :...

Hi guys, Yesterday I visited a festival in the Northern part of the Netherlands, in a village called Gees. For Dutch understandings, there were quite some special Ford's and Ford derivatives. The line up http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu24/fordson1961/Gees%202012/IMG_4824.jpg http://i630.photobu...

Hi guys, Ever since the repair I did on my gearbox of my SuperMajor http://www.fordsontractorpages.nl/phpbb3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3011&hilit=pascal+gearbox oil from the gearbox was slowly leaking into the rear axle. Once in a while I pumped some oil back from the rear axle to the gearbox via the hydr...

Thank you, guys!

Unfortunately Super is still sick. I haven't had the time to fix her yet.

Hey Martijn,

Great pictures! Super, that you did the job so thorough!

Looking forward to see the pictures of the complete tractor.

Hey Martijn,

Sorry for the late reply.

Great to read the steel wheels were such a success in Panningen!
Sorry to misjudge the weight of the load..or the power of the Volvo.

I see you have no problems at all: see at 23 sec.

Hi guys, Two weeks ago I visited a small but very nice festival in Montfoort (near Utrecht The Netherlands). I went there by tractor. Unfortunately I only spent there a short time, since the oil level in the gearbox of my SuperMajor suddenly dropped... :eyes: You might like to see some of the pictur...

Congratulations with your first ploughing, Henk!!
You can be proud of yourself!
Good luck with the contest!

Hoi Kev,

How's your 5000 doing?
Is the steering okay now?

Some pictures of the tractor would be great.

Hi Martijn,

Did the Volvo managed to get you and the tractors safely to Panningen and afterwards safely home?
I guess I had quite a pull on the two tractors on the trailer?

Did you managed to mount the iron wheels in time?
Some pictures would be great!

Great pictures!

Does anybody knows which 4WD system the Y-series Ford (with frame) has? County?

Hi Frode,

I can't make it unfortunately.
I hope someone of this board will attend and will be taking pictures for this website!

Wow, what a great story and great pictures!
Thank you for sharing!

You welcome, Johan!

Frode,
The coupling would be better, if the bolts were attached to the side of the rear axle instead of the back.
But luckily I didn't pull it off yet.

Hi Martijn,

Too bad you won't make it on time. But the 400 will be a nice replacement. Quite a heavy load for the 400, I guess?
Great that you put the iron wheels on!

I can't make it this year to Panningen.. May be next year?
Have fun in Panningen!

Hi Janus, I just read Henk's post. Here you are. http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu24/fordson1961/Diverseafbeeldingen/DSC01007.jpg http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu24/fordson1961/Diverseafbeeldingen/DSC01008.jpg http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu24/fordson1961/Diverseafbeeldingen/DSC02257....

Hi David,

I am afraid I cannot help you.
May be these guys will be able to help you: http://www.ford-fordson.org/
