Hello Everyone. This past fall while my baby was sleeping outside after a workout, some jerk took off a bunch of parts. I was able to replace everything except 2 steel plugs that go on the top of the final drive housing for filling with oil. I don't have a replacement one for measurement but the female opening is roughly 1.5" and looks to be fine thread. I have gone to box store hardware section and TSI as well as Blains Farm Fleet. Nothing seems to fit it. Either a hair too big or just a bit too small. What the heck size are these plugs for gosh sake. Also anyone have a parts tractor with a pair of these they would consider selling. Either parts or advise as to a replacement part would be greatly appreciated. ------------- HD16DC, Bobcat 863 Turbo, Oliver 1855, John Deere 855, |

Way back a lot of plugs on farm equipement were pipe plugs... Seems like a lot of the Construction Manufactures used more of a standard bolt thread. They made plugs of 1 inch, 1.25 inch 1.5 inch.. etc, and i THINK they were all 12 threads per inch....some had an o-ring seal on them. ------------- Like them all, but love the "B"s. |
