    No brake pedal, 400 Ind.

    As the title says I have no brake pedal on the 400 Industrial. They were working fine then over 8-10 applications the pedal now just goes to the floor. With the brake valve removed if I put oil in the reservoir I get a pedal back and it will shoot oil out of the outlets. Idle the engine with...

    400 ind manual to power steering

    Finally had a chance to work on this project. New power steering valve and drag link bolted right up. Works great for a bit then the seal on the half moon shaped cover on right side of casing blows out. Return flow doesnt seem to be returning to the sump. Should I drill a hole into the sump...

    Power steering

    I have a 400 industrial, very similar to a ag 2020. It has manual steering with an Anadolu aftermarket power assist unit that is malfunctioning. Can I convert it to factory style power steering by simply bolting the factory closed center steering box to it and plumbing it up?

    Tx Jim help

    Still working on the Industrial 400 and its hydraulic oil filter relief valve. The valve is stuck. Needle nose pliers dont budge it. Last attempt I ground down some vice grip needle nose, grabbed it and wrapped wire through the pliers and around a screw driver. Used the screw to as a pry bar...

    Oil pressure relief valve

    Working on my JD 400 industrial. Trying to eliminate a squeal in the hydro system. It goes away when the 3 pt lift, loader, or steering calls for pressure. Got the sump screen clean and new filter installed but cant get the oil pressure relief valve to slide out as the service manual says...

    335 Loader

    I just purchased a JD 400 industrial tractor with a Ford 335 loader on it. A couple of the loader cylinders leak. Where can I find parts like a repair kit. If a Google it turns out Ford made a 335 tractor. The nearest hydraulic shop is several miles from me.

    400 Industrial

    Picked up a jd 400 industrail model yesterday. I've got to clean it up and asses leaks on hydraulic hoses and cylinders but I think it will be a good tractor. Gas burner, loader, power steering, 3 point hitch and pto. Standard transmission with two levers (P, I, II, R) and 1-4(5-8). Dont...

    Frontier mower repair

    A friend bought a new 5 foot Frontier finish mower recently. The front is v shaped, like a nose I guess you could say. She has bent this nose downward by hitting the edge of a concrete slap so it drags the ground. Any ideas on how to bend the nose back up?

    Safety switch

    After the close call last week I went ahead and added a kill switch to the tractor's ignition. Works just like a boat's. If I fall off or get knocked off it turns the tractor off. That assumes I have it clipped onto to myself.

    All dressed up

    Put a quick paint job on the 4000 last weekend. Better half made and installed decals. I like the way it turned out for a working tractor.

    Just picked up a 903 auger for $125. It came with a 9 inch a7ger and everything works like its supposed to. Only problem is the bolt holding the auger bit to the gearbox output shaft is broken. The bit is stuck to the output shaft. Any ideas on getting the two apart?

    Surging fixed

    The new to me 4000 had a bad surging problem. Carb float was set 1/2 - 5/8 inch. Adjusted it to 1/4 inch and reset linkages. Problem appears to be solved.

    Plug wire location

    Noticed today the #1 plug wire on the 641 is 180 degrees different than the #1 wire on the 4000. On the 641 it attaches to distributor next to the #1 plug. 641 runs fine, 4000 surges. Which is correct? Could this be causing the surging. 4000 carb is a zenith and is set 4.5 turns out.

    Rolling again

    I broke some teeth off the differential of my 641. Found a used setup, differential, pinion, case, and axles with housings in Jasper Tn from a 801. I like the lower 801 gears. My tires are taller (13.6 x 28) than factory so ground speed was quick. Now it is a little slower and much better. I...
