Not trying to start anything here, but has anyone noticed the similarities? I just priced 2 new small, non spring friction disks (clutch) for this Ford 1910 Im working on and New Holland wants $653.00, plus tax, just for the disks, nothing else! Outrageous, just like the government, WAY OUT OF CONTROL! Maybe if some of these tractor companies managed their overhead correctly, stopped wasting so much money and got the chest beaters out of their organizations, they wouldn't have to try and prove their market share and dominance by producing that new 500 hp, drag the gates off of hell super tractor at the expense of us little guys. I mean really now, Ford, Case, whoever, whenever you go into buy a part anymore you'd think you were buyin a piece for a $300,000 dollar machine even when its a $2000 P.O.S. Its almost like Im buying a replacement part for one of my cnc machineS that is capable of making a million dollars worth of pieces in a one week production run. Maybe if these companies got their prices in line, so many old tractors wouldnt be scrapped and parted out. Am I way off base here?
Thanks for the info to Carolins Brake & Clutch. They said they will reline, rebuild and adjust it up for $200 plus about $80 shipping both ways.
Aw, maybe Im just a little fumed at the new tax assesment I just received. Just the house and 1 acre went from 218k to 351k, go figure. Billing me for killing me.

It was a fairly typical Northern Ireland farm where the main enterprise was dairying but some pigs, poultry and sheep were also kept. Potatoes were grown for sale and oats were grown to be used for cattle and horse feeding. Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
