Looking good. On our duo the red part of the door is a sticker and now faded. Are transfers difficult to apply?
What colour is the chassis?

I Did have door stickers on mine but the sticker red was different colour to the red i was using for spraying the rest of the tractor. Decals are easy enough to do but take a fair bit of measuring and marking out. i use masking tape first to get everything set out and set your decals to the masking tape lines. Need to be done in the warmth of a heated workshop to make sure everything sticks 100%. LOTUS DESIGNS are the best you can get for Decals

Air con, 40k and a set of weights. It's an XL plus so Dromone hitch was standard by then.

Looks a very original example. 10 years time that will be a 15k Tractor if kept in good condition

Had a few over the years. Some good and some bad.
Loved the sound of the 956, had a 1056 4wd as well.
5288 was a pig. Very american in the cab. Had to be rewired after the loom chaifed through and nearly set fire to it.
1455 pulled well but was very basic. Was one of the last ones built.
Magnum and Maxxum were both great tractors.
Had a few Axleflows, this was the last one before we changed to a JD in 2004.

Which LEDs did you go for?? Any interference on your Radio with them on??
Has anyone got a headlight led replacement yet for the older case IH tractors?

Thanks. Went for these on the rear lights

https://www.tractorparts.co.uk/inte...ational-956XL-1056XL-1255XL-1455XL-Rear-Light

And these on the work lights

https://www.tractorparts.co.uk/inte...ional-XL-Roof-Work-Light-Lamp-LED-Conversion-

Work lights were easy, just needed to widen the original bracket a fraction. Rear lights needed new holes drilled. Indicators don't show up on the dashboard now.

Overall really pleased.

Haven't actually tried the radio yet.

A few of mine! The one with the chopper on never sits still for a moment, it’s always doing something, fantastic tractor for the yard.

Case 895 xl clutch not clearing very well all of a sudden. With pumping it improves master cylinder leaking on inspection any advice welcomed. I have a spare master cylinder what’s the best way to remove it?

More lights on the 1455xl/Agriseeder rig. Got some LEDS coming to go on the front linkage next to the road lights.

I’ve got a 584 leaking oil from the Kontac spool valves and also on the single acting one it’s hard to find the neutral position the lever is very sloppy is it a big job to put new seals in ? And will it be the detent on the lever and is this easy to do ?
