IH Tractor and water tank

admin

Heres a tractor I did a few years ago. There was a lot of welding repair on the body panels, if you watch before its painted you can see all the burned areas from welding and brazing. I also brazed up a lot of steel fuel lines and hydraulic lines where vibration caused them to rub through. The disk was also a big welding project and the 1000 water trailer was all built from scratch. Its a 1000gal steel fuel tank. The axle I found behind a friends house it the woods. the rims were rotted away where is sat in the dirt so I had to patch in new steel. I never did get around to painting it.The tractor belonged to a friend who died before I paid for the tractor. Luckily he told his wife about it so I was able to buy it from her. Heres a vid

Reply:Originally Posted by Michaeljp86I read they were designed to be 48hp, that's where the 48 in the 484 comes from but then all came out about 50hp. They are supposed to be higher hp with a rebuild kit because the new pistons are higher compression then stock.
