IH Hydro 84 charge pump

[Agri Spec Solicitor]

Help needed please. Our hydro charge pump is getting tired and flow is tested low.
Where could we find a replacement pump? I would be very grateful for any information to point us in the right direction.
Thanks.

Have you tried intatracuk. They specalise in international stuf

 

[Agri Spec Solicitor]

Thanks yes I emailed Intatrac today and also pj tractor parts. They will hopefully reply tomorrow. I think it could be a long road to find one.

Have you tried any american international specalists as they had various hydro models and must surely be same system

Errr.......

Case IH Hydrostatic Charge Pump - Stoens Hydrostatic Service

Yes - but you get $1000 back for your old core - still a lot of money though.

Maybe try Kevin Kingston.
I believe he has a number of hydro tractors.
If he has no parts he might be able to point you in the right direction.

Did you ever get any further with search for parts

The problem has taken an unexpected turn. Realistically it would have cost £5k to renew the charge pump and reseal the hydro. Apparently the higher pressure in the system might blow the old seals which are 40 years old. But will the hydro need more work than that? Could we source those parts? it may not necessarily be good as new even after all that.
An alternative is to fit a manual gearbox and basically end up with a 784. That appears to be more viable in the longer term and it is the way it will probably end. Intatrac helpfully provide all the parts along with new clutch, brake band etc.
It’s a shame to lose such a great transmission but nothing is forever.

Very useful but soaked the power more than manual by some margin and were hot and noisy to sit on all day. My student farm had one on a spud harvester. Good on that job (single row).

Yes they aren’t perfect but excellent for some applications. What is now going to be a 784 seems rather dull in comparison!
We still have a 523 Agriomatic which had a clutch less shuttle in 1967 so again IH was ahead of its time. If only it had power steering!

Genuinely believe that ih bein sold of was single biggest loss to agri machinery ever, they had some great ideas/designs. Hydro tractors,axial flow combines,they were goin to launch the magnum albeit with ih engine which is prob best large tractors ever made
