Larry Hardesty said: (quoted from post at 09:57:48 12/29/09) Paul, Thanks, I assume this is the bracket that fastens to the crossbeam between the two arms and the hydraulic cylinder pivots on it. What I have now is a "field" modification on which is fastened single cylinder. Sounds like from others the original cylinder is no longer available either from IH or as an aftermarket. I will have to make some further adjustments.
Thanks
Larry
The IH cylinder has two "nubs" on it's bottom end upon which it pivots. As the bucket dumps the angle of the cylinder adjusts accordingly. It sounds like the the single cylinder of your loader is not of that design? Perhaps you can find another IH cylinder . . . sounds like the 2001 and 1701 cylinders are the same at least. Have you tried JP Tractor? I'll be happy to send images if that would help.
My IH loader brochure lists the dual cylinders for the 2000 loader as 2.5 x 23 inches, and as I mentioned before, the single IH cylinder is 3.5 x 16 inches. The combined volume of the dual cylinders is 50% more than the single, so it would dump 50% slower. That may not make much of a difference. This is a photo of the bucket I bought to retrofit to my 1701 loader. As you can see, it wouldn't be difficult to set it up for the dual dump cylinders.
Larry, which hydraulic pump does your 340 have? Mine has only the 9 gpm camshaft driven pump, and I wonder if it will be fast enough to run the loader. I know there were internal pump options of 12 and 17 gpm.
It is not uncommon to see single vertical bucket cylinders on Case loaders, perhaps there may be junkyard cylinders available that won't require excessive modifications.

Today's Featured Article - The Cletrac General GG and the BF Avery A - A Bit of History - by Mike Ballash. This article is a summary of what I have gathered up from various sources on the Gletrac General GG and the B. F. Avery model A tractors. I am quite sure that most of it is accurate. The General GG was made by the Cleveland Tractor Company (Cletrac) of Cleveland, Ohio. Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
