1572 Before and After
 

Here is what she looks like after a bit of work. I kind of like the looks of the 125 seat on it. Finally got the drive shaft where I was happy with it. Probably tear it down next winter and give her a paint job.

Great job, Kelly!

Wow, what a make over. It's looking good. I know that rear PTO and lift is probably just in your way. I'll send my address and you can ship it on down here and I'll put it to good use. :) :biggrin2:

DWayne: im more closer to Kelly. Kelly looking good. are you going to the plow day on may 12th. if so bring the diesel. im bring my 100R if i can go.

That one took more than "A Bit Of Work" more like major reconstruction. Can't even tell it was the same tractor. Nice job!:beerchug:

Thanks for the compliments guys. DWayne sorry it's not equipped with the PTO or I would probably would have made you a deal on it. I cant imagine never needing anything PTO driven. PTO driven rototillers are like hens teeth up here and my yard is not big enough for a rear mounted finish mower. Power steering either has air in the lines or the steering mechanism is in need of rebuild


Donovan I will prolly bring this old gal to the plow day. Hope you can make it again this year.

Looks awesome your hard work is paying off!

power steering issue
 

I just installed a PS system with NO fluid in it and it only took about one minute for the entire system to fill and operate. Unless there is an air leak on the intake side I think you may have other issues than air in the lines. I have read several articles about trash in the system or a blocked filter causing the PS to not work smoothly. I'm sure you will work it out but thought it might help you to know how these system are so simple that the trouble options are few. You have done a great job so far and don't get too discouraged if you don't find the problem right away.

I agree, that took a lot of work.
Looks good now cubs-n-bxrs :ThumbsUp:

Kelly your 1572 looks great!
