As far as the engine oil goes I'm pretty sure it's a 10-30w diesel rated oil I'm running.

@@Shopworx thanks, that's good news as straight 30 is kind of hard to find

It's designed so you don't have to pull the drive covers and possibly bugger up the seals on them. I know Id rather have to worry about the pipe plug sealing again vs cutting an oring on the drive covers.

@Shopworx copy that. 👍

Good to know. I've got the parts to reseal the gear box but want to go hydraulic steering so haven't re assembled it yet. Have you any idea what model of combine it was. Otherwise I'm looking at eBay for a orbital valve. Local shops haven't been overly helpful on sizing a steering valve.

Not sure exactly, I won't be back around it for a while. One thing I'm going to point out with it is that the axles are moved further ahead than I would normally build a trailer because I wanted less tung weight on the bumper of my 5th wheel trailer when I tow it behind the RV. I didn't want a bunch of sea sawing going on. I just make sureI load whatever properly to keep it tongue heavy enough to be safe.

Yes, I love the deutz's. I try to take home every one I can get my hands on. I love to repower equipment with them. Ive got some parts engines in a 5 and 6 cylinder, a siezed 4 cylinder, one thats not siezed but I have no info on it in a air compressor, 2 of those generators now, and of course the 3610 and 6510 ditchwitch trenchers that came with them........And a new one comming this fall once I get the shack disconnected from standby. And 1 low hour lister 3cyl 7.5kva? i packed back from labrador. Hunting for some SAE #4 bellhousings and flywheels to repower a trencher and grader...... Sounds like you know a bit about the deutz's

Thanks, I try, Ticketed in some trades and common sense for the rest.......

Thanks. If you stick around you'll see a lot of Ford stuff, welding, some equipment refurbs, repairs and modifications, some of the few jobs I can take videos on..... And more.

I mocked it up with them, some odd cuts of 2x6 and some other shapes. It just made it look more like a 70's off road bumper. I think it looks cleaner without.

Thank you! Slowly but surely.

Well..... If your going to put the effort into making one, might as well make it tough. I'm sure some 16-20 year old kid isn't going to like it one day though....

@@Shopworx Well, it ain't for them... it's for a working man... lol

Don't have to tell me about it.... However I do have a really cool job that allows me to go places all over Canada ( some good, some not so good) during the summer. That's why there's a lot more work done on the projects in the winter. Cant wait to get it finished though, and out on the road.

Thanks, hopefully more to come, I had a few hours to get some welding and editing done...... Still trying to get better quality footage, with poor quality cameras, hate to bugger up the expensive ones with overspray, sparks, etc. Till next time

Yep, we've all been well, Just really busy. had to balance Work, family time when home and projects..... As you can tell which one that had to be cut...... I'll be picking away at it a bit till our Build out season is over then hopefully hit it hard again. Thanks for sticking with it!

Yep. both are good to have. Usually when I have a lot of one the other suffers. Still on our busy summer season but hopefully on the next job I might be able to get some footage at work. The vast majority of what I work on I am not allowed to film anything more than the public could see. But cant wait to keep picking away at the 6 door. Thanks for sticking with....

It was the .84. Was told it would be best for me as I do a bunch of towing with it

Still haven't found what I'm looking for. They came factory with a f4l912 deutz as a diesel option. I am having a hard time finding one with such a small bell housing. I would like to go that way as it's proven in that application and is air cooled so no need for a radiator. Still depends on what I find first that works. I have other trenchers so not in a huge hurry. It was going to be one I leave in Eastern Canada so we're not shipping back and forth.

I ran a manual hydraulic line lock off rear brake line off master cylinder, works much better than any factory parking brake but i dont trust it sitting for any lenth of time, over 3 years with it, still holds, never bleeds off/ leaks off over time

Haven't really use it much yet. Was to light for pushing clay. Picked up a bigger champion grader, a 562. I would like to repower this 503 with a different diesel..... A air cooled deutz or possibly a 3-53 Detroit, or a decent Kubota.... Looking for the right engine for the right price. Then the ud236 will get transplanted into the older 503G that currently has no engine.

I'll have to check out some info when I get home. In the summer I fly all over Canada working on aircraft navigation aids so everything is hit and miss. I'm sure I ordered them from my local diesel injection specialist so I should have a receipt somewheres

Pulls good. Hauled a ranger full of scrap steel on it, a 9 yard dumpster and a ATV on it behind my 5th wheel RV. Also behind the same travel trailer I haul a 4 seat Yamaha wolverine side by side and a 660 grizzly on this flat deck. Just about any trailer will pull good with any load if you know how to position it properly for weight.

I believe I spent about 3 days on the cutting and welding of the body's. 4 max. John was around to help line them up as I brought them in. It's the finishing that takes forever. All the little details.

No it's a stage 1. I do Alot of heavy towing and everyone I talked to said that would be best for my application. Overall it dropped my EGTs about 300 degrees without running the water meth or my chip. Turbo gets into it a bit lower in the Powerband over stock and averages 3 to 5 psi higher boost Injectors are Baby swamps. 4" turbo back SS Diamond eye 6.0l intercooler. DIY electric fuel with regulated return

Ha ha....if you skip to the end it's still not done... Still working on it. Got a few new videos for it half made but waiting on parts to complete them. Thanks for following along with the build. I've got a few other OBS ford videos like my crew cab resto and the f-superduty dump truck. We get the same rust issues up here from all the sand and salt as well. I've tried different spot welds cutters over the years and like those the best. Take care and best of luck with your project. If you have any questions send a message, I'm on Facebook too. I've been wrenching on these since they were made....
