Just a few pictures of the cab before any work was done. I decided to buy a 2mm sheet and fold the pieces myself. I'll post the results. Mainly working on mechanical repairs atm.

Has anyone used those pre folded steel sections to do welding repairs or made their own? Any recommended source for those pieces or q cab parts in general?

Dipping it would be excellent, very hard to do a good job internally any other way. I might look into it. I haven't decided how in depth I will go with it. It's still a working tractor.

It's probably easier to buy the sections although if I could make them myself I could use much heavier steel. There will be some difficult areas like at the bottom of the doors where the sheet metal overlaps... It would also be nice to use some kind of underseal for the bottom of the cab and...

Hi all, I'm planning on doing some restoration work on our 7810 this Winter. The mechanical stuff should be fine but I must also do some welding on the cab, particularly the doors and around the mudguards. Main columns are generally good. Is there any recommendations on how to prevent rust...

Hi all, I have an issue with the drafting on our 7810. Its way too responsive so I'm wondering if there is a way to disconnect it completely. The height fluctuates so much it gets very close to damaging PTOs etc. The draft level was always in the fully back position which is the 'hare' so I...

Update, because the lift still had power we decided the long shaft might be ok and that the hydraulic pump might have an issue. Sure enough, when taken off and opened the shaft between the two compartments of the pump were stripped. The side of the pump powering the lift was working but the side...

Ok, how much ripping did that take?

I though that the long shaft would still operate the pto even if power to the wheels was gone, or vise versa. Would two sets of splines not need to be damaged?? I'm trying to remember from the 5000 is ripped awhile back

Hi all, Our 7610 lost power to wheels and pto today. Lift and hydraulics work. When you let up the clutch in any gear its attempts to move and then slips. The pto dosen't do anything when turned on but when off freewheels slightly which it normally dosen't do. I've looked at old threads and...

That's interesting bloders. Idk, I know roughly how the system works but not enough to diagnose. It's actually my cousins loader so I'm not driving it everyday but as far as I know it got bad relatively suddenly and it's at a stage now where is dangerous and impractical

Does anyone know whats wrong with a 2cx when the brakes are either on full or off full, no inbetween. When you press the pedal nothing happens for a moment and then they engage fully, almost throwing you through the front window. I changed the two accumulators in front of the back axle thinking...

Without too much load as in with the tedder on you can easily hold a pike or whatever against the tines and it stops, or in the field just drive into a swath and it stops with the smallest of resistance. I'm sure if its worth changing the brake Captain Sensible based on what others have said...

I had 10w40 for years but I recently switched to universal which I think is 10w30 so that might help yes. Spread slurry recently and after the first 3 loads the pump was strong enough to hold the Pto which isn't bad. There is a fair bit of torque in it when it's cold alright

Just to update, I decided to reassemble what was there for now. The clutch plates are not warped and look in very good condition, the brake pawl has plenty life left in it still, despite some wear. I cleaned the spring and made sure it was working right. I also filed the blurred edges of the...

That's a pretty miserable size of a brake pad, considering the friction of the clutch. It is worn a little though so a change might help. The clutch plates look pretty good though. I was kinda hoping they would be worse... Still, the fact that they are old maybe their not disengaging as much...

I hadn't opened the top cover before, until just now... The serrations for the brake are almost gone. Not sure how pronounced they should be

It happens hot and cold, it's been happening for years so I quess the brake is completely gone. Should have used your suggestion keith and left it turned on when not in use. I'm using universal oil. I'll open it and change the brake and I'll see what the clutch looks like but maybe I should...

Does anyone know what the issue is when the Pto won't disengage fully? It's been happening in our pre force for years. There is no power in it but it stays spinning slowly. Any help appreciated, John

Like ac suggested the thermostat housing could be leaking. This is an easy gasket to change without much ripping. The leak down behind the injector pump however is quite likely the timing case leaking. I can be difficult to see the source of the leak in this area as the bead of water runs on the...
