Looking for front rims 5"w x 12"d 4" bolt circle, 2 3/4 pilot with or without good condition AG 6-12 ag tires.

Update Today I replaced the valve stem seals. It was easier than anticipated. I would have liked to post pictures but it is a two hand procedure and I did not have an assistant. There are two marks on the flywheel which can be seen through the hole in the right side of the bellhousing, 1Fl and...

http://www.harborfreight.com/2-piece-1500-lb-capacity-vehicle-dollies-67338.html Never done it but I would think this would work. Just need to balance upright and roll in an upright position, wide tires should not fall if carefull. A bottle jack or floor jack lifted to the proper height should...

How much of the tractor is remaining? I live in western Ct and may need xome parts. Could you post some photos?

Thanks, I think I can use my compression tester adapter into the glow plug hole. I was going to bring the piston up but I like your idea better. This time I will take some pics.

So Sorry I did not take any Photos. But during the job I noticed one of the valve seals could be replaced. If it becomes a problem can these be replaced with the head still on the block? I do not see why not. The machine runs great and starts so much better.

Thanks for the hammer and socket trick it worked on the first strike. Now to lap and reassemble.

A few years ago I purchased a B6000 which would not start, tested compression and found it drastically low. I took it apart and discovered the piston rings were broken. I honed the cylinder walls as there was little to no ridge, put in new rings, rod bearings, and gaskets. Wanted to lap the...

I have researched this topic extensively due to the fact I have a 12.5 HP B6000 with a pto reverser and wanted the largest cut it could power. Most recommended 42" cut with a 48" cut maximum. I read the Caroni estate mower works well with less HP and found a 59" cut on craigslist and my B6000...

I found what I was looking for at Stevens Tractor Company Part number CTS15073. It seems when I purchased the hub city PTO reverser from western kentucky tractor parts they also sold me a shaft to fit the reverser so when I take the reverser off to run the reverse rotation tiller the replaced...

I purchased a 40" reverse rotation rototiller which came off an international cub lo boy which also has a reverse rotation. I intend to run this on my B6000. The problem I am having is finding a PTO adapter which looks to have an 18 spline 1" female to the standard size 6 spline male. The female...

Thanks for the information. I found the other thread and this does seem to be the problem. It makes sense. I have not tried this yet but am sure it will work. Much thanks.

My little beast is giving me trouble shifting in and out of four wheel drive. The shifter feels like it is not greased or lubricated enough. There is no grease fitting. Is this lubricated by the hydraulic fluid? I have it in four wheel drive now but do not want to take it out of with snow...

I hope you know the B6000 has a reverse PTO so only a mower deck made for that model will work unless you have a hub city PTO reverser which is hard to find and costly.
