oppie_25 said: (quoted from post at 10:29:18 02/22/10) I am restoring a farmall H right now and am puting on the flat back style lights on it. Now I need new sealed beams for them because the ones in it are 6 volt I believe and a couple might be burnt out. Are there any other options except for paying $43 bucks a bulb? I have stuck alot of money in this tractor and dont have a problem with that but I am having a hard time swallowing the price of these lights. Any ideas?
Oppie: Yes, there is an option. I don't have the bulb number for the 12v, but the 6v is #1145. You can take that information to your local napa store and ask them for the 12v version of the same bulb. You will need to grind off an indexing boss on the backside edge of each bulb - just don't get them too hot as you do it. If the glass starts to glow, you are going too fast and getting it too hot. They sell for about $16-$17 each. The terminal connections are slightly different, but they work fine in the flatback housings. The lens is also slightly different as it does not have the little "circle" pattern in the middle. I'm using the 6v ones in my SM and am pleased. Hope this helps. mike

As I grew older (7), it was the thrill of my day to ride or drive on the tractor. My Papaw had a 1954 IH Super A that he bought to replace a Cub. My Papaw raised "baccer" (tobacco) and corn with the Super A, but the fondest memory was of the sawmill. He owned a small sawmill for sawing "baccer" sticks. The Super A was the powerplant. When I was old enough (7 or 8), I would get up early and be dressed to
