Brad,Something to think on, years ago I used our TD20 Dozer to push off ground for our garage. Under the ground was our buried house water line. 80 feet from the house to the well. Guess what? Water line froze during the winter.Used another system above ground,until we could get a backhoe to dig us another line. The line running above the ground was plastic 1 1/4 suction 1" drive,we rolled it with heat tape,one long continuous tape,covered with insulation batting,covered with visqueen,all that was pulled thru a 6" plastic flexible drain tube with no slots,the ends were sealed around the 1 1/4 and 1" tube with foam spray. We buried the whole line in spring as I described 9 feet deep,with 2 1/2 " high density darafoam sheeting on the sides and top. Benn going that way since 1994. no problems.I also discovered, that heat tape has a system that runs thru the inside of the water lines(used in Alaska) very successful from what I can read. You might consider this type as I described from what we done to that inside water line that would fix problems such as you are considering. Hope all this info helps. Warmest regards, LOU

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
