I see a lot of hydraulic valves on it, but looks like a trip loader. What are all of the valves used for?
Nice looking 45 diesel, have fun with it. Bob

Not too bad of a project, just cross your fingers before you start! I see it has the proverbial replacement front wheel.....one of the biggest weak points was the 7/16" 5 lug wheels...came loose, stripped or fatigue cracked when put to work.....seemed all the competition used 6 lug rims on tractors as small as the 8N Ford....what was Allis thinking??? |

Looks like a good ol' workhorse! Are you going to use it as is or restore it? My ol' WD will probably never get restored as long as I own it as I can't take it out of service that long--Maybe when I get the clutch done in the D17 LP!!
