Here's the condensed version. I bought it from someone our feed salesman knew. The old that had it was doing an in frame when he died and it set for years with the head off and pistons out cause the crank to rust bad.i believe I bought it in 1998. My neighbor and I went to pick it up about 90 miles away, it was valentines day and we got into a snow storm on way back and I missed dinner with my then( more xwife) girlfriend. We barely made it home with the slick road and my buddies dually dodge that it just turned way up for him and it just wanted to spin and slide ( I was just out of college working nights building teat engines at cummins so I knew how to make that dodge run but it would spin way to easy with all that power..later we replaced the rear end, tranny) Ok back to the 45..we scaled it a few days later at 17,300 lbs. Went to shove it in the shop and the axles were the long ones and would fit in the door. Got the stihl demo saw out and 6vblades later shes in. Pulled the motor had block cleaned, head gone thru and bought a remanufactured crank for it( remember this for later.) About 6 weeks later I fired it up but it would not shut off..that when I learned about the cheap little injection pump they came with.got that fixed and took her out for a drive and it worked but I think our 4020 had more power..see above about pump. I bought a 4020 style pump and lines and had an adapter plate made at work( we have in house machine shop) The new pump brought it to life. Was using it that spring and lost hydraulic pressure, pulled the screen and it was full of metal..condensed version diff went out..installed a 4840 diff in it. Alls well till bout 2005 when I decided my old 7700 combine was not worth using any more so I rebuilt that engine and put in her along with an 8820 intercooler. Had my buddy and the new holland dealer bring out the dyno to break it in. Shes turning 177hp. Now days she just dont get much use. I had her at another farm setting in the barn just to shuffle equipment in the barn. Last year I spread some fertilizer with it and the next day it would only run if u pumped the hand primer. Now that I am working from home I hauled it back to the shop and the plunger on the pump was rusted so I got it freed and put in new fuel and she runs great. Sorry if my sentences are choppy I am typing this on my phone.

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
