Posted: 28 Jun 2015 at 9:39pm |
I got this d15 sr2 this weekend off craigslist I was using it to bushog today and one of the power steering lines busted are these lines still available from agco or do I need to try and get a local hose shop to make something close. also would these d15s pull a 6ft bush hog or do I need to stay with the 5ft I have the wheels narrow as they can go and they are wider than 5ft . thanks jt

Nice looking tractor.
Yes, I believe most of the power steering lines are still available from AGCO. While you are at it, I would recommend getting an owner's manual if you do not already have one.
As far as bushing hogging goes, what are you chopping? It should be able to handle a 6', but you may need to go slower and use your hand clutch to creep through some of the thick spots.

The right wheel looks like it will go in another two inches if you remove stop. MACK

sharp D-15. Originals are always sharp looking. I've never had to get a D series power steering line, but I just had my local NAPA makes some up for the 190
At work, we pull a 6 foot Allis-Chalmers bush hog with a '58 D-14 and it handles it pretty well even in heavy weeds

A D-15 can handle a 6' hog well. As for the PS lines, Take old one to Colloflower shop, and have them make one up, they can duplicate most anything. If you don't have colliflower nearby, you need to find a good hose shop...

Thanks for the information. What are some good dealers to call about the power steering hose I'm in central va I don't know of any dealers around here. I liked cutting with it I was in real heavy grass up over the grill guard. It will take time getting use the the hi low hand clutch all the tractors I've ever used to cut with had 2 stage clutches.

Good looking unit as not so many SII, 3-pt. with NF around. Factory 3-pt. on the D15 is not much more than the light components used on the D12's so keep all bolts/nuts checked underneath as routine maint., including the TB linkage.
Will have no issue with 6' brush cutter but you may want front slab or front wheel weights to help keep the front end safely on the ground since NF.
*Even with power adjust wheels fully in, you will not entirely cover the wheel tread with a 6' cutter as it will be 4-6" shy. I switch directions and cut the opposite way every other round if I really want a clean cut sometimes.
Be careful on any grades with that NF . . . . .

Nice looking D15. Don't see many of those around me.
Plays in dirt, look at the top of this forum category's page. There is a sticky post about Allis weights.
