Took a trip to Kennabeck on I-90 pheasant hunting in 2007. So dang many birds that I would call it a pheasant shoot. No hunting involved. 3 days a drive back home 1600 miles.

welcome to the club. Always happy to have new projects and problems to hear about. Don't be afraid to ask if you have a problem. Somebody out there has been there and or done that, and is usually more than willing to add input.

When I was working on my D4, they saved me quite a bit of unessary time and labor.

If you were involved with construction, you probably not totaly unfamiliar with mechanics. Nothing really too complicated with old stuff, just big and heavy!

Good luck with future projects and remember a picture is worth a thousand words.

I have spent many y hours in the internals of several D4 tractors, if I can help ask and I will do the best I can.
First the steering clutches , get a book and study adjust ment , take them up till no play and tie them back and drive around with the brakes on to make some heat and maybe they will come loose , good luck , [email protected]

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
