Plenty of stuff still available for them what do you need

Set of track guards, the cowl that goes round the dash and a swinging drawbar, it's just got the fixed one on at the moment

Do you know if the gauges for the dash are big money? Got a buddy here that's doing one up. It came off the beach and got a big old hyster winch on the back.

Fenland tractors are very helpful. I am rebuilding a D4C and gradually getting all the bits from them, some new and some used. The list does seem to keep getting longer rather than shorter though......

 

[Timo@hattonfarms]

Yes spoke to them this morning, as you say very helpful. Hopefully they've a drawbar for me

How's it going?.....will you get a note out of the engine soon?

 

[Hawkes]

Well the starting engine is nearly there, I am still waiting for DHDay to rebuild the magneto, (quoted a few weeks several months ago!) but have fitted new piston rings, polished bores, rebuilt starter motor etc etc, so once I get the mag back I should be able to get that going. The main diesel is seized in three bores as was full of water, but the head is off and pistons soaking! Harvest is interfering now but once autumn comes and some workshop time is possible then the main engine will come apart. It is a real shame it got left out as not that much mechanical wear in the engines.

A few images of the engine strip when you get a change, please .........

@milkloss i bought these from Finnings this week, just over £100 the pair but I like to buy genuine parts where I can

Here's the petrol donkey engine on the bench. It is ludicrously heavy! The starter motor bolts onto the studs on lh side of picture.

You can get aftermarket gauges for a fraction of that price , can,t comment on the quality , Roberts Plant has a D4c breaking
i have a D4c 24a and a D4d 7r that requires an engine if anyone knows of a 330C engine kicking about

Nice wide grousers on the D4d, I'm after some wide pads for mine

Bruce atfield has one breaking with similar width pads on , not sure how good the chains are , also has another breaker with the D330 in the same as your C
