Interesting. I am refurbishing my old UTB 445 and also put in a new water pump & reconditioned injector pump. The water pumps can be completely rebuilt if one has the time to do so. Here is the state of my 445.New water pump on my 640 yesterday View attachment 930655
These water pipe clips were a bit of a pain to get loose so swaped to new normal jubilee type View attachment 930656
All sorted happy days no leaks View attachment 930657
Old pump was still nice and smooth on bearings just seal was weeping.
I bet the new one doesn’t last 45 years though.
Alexander and Duncan were agricultural dealers in Leominster who sold Universal Tractors with Duncan Cabs on. { was working on a farm nr Knighton as a student in 1977 and a Universal 4wd 550 arrived costing £4,000 and displacing an old Massey 165Alixander Duncan Cabs are still in or near Aberdeen not sure what they produce today. I spotted Fritzmere at Agritechnca, they also produced cabs in the 70s
