| I want to thank everyone for their feedback on my last post about the gear shift on my 1951 WD. Now I have another question, what manuals would you all recommend for refurbishing my WD? It is very confusing looking on e-bay. My intentions are to do a complete restore back to the way it came off the assembly line; all input will be appreciated. |

Take a look at http://grandpastractor.com/forum/allis-chalmers-tractors" rel="nofollow - http://grandpastractor.com/forum/allis-chalmers-tractors there could be downloadable original manuals there. On epay, look ONLY for original or print copies of original AC manuals. The I&T manuals are too thin to work for door stops and have too little detail to be useful unless you are a full time tractor mechanic with half a century of experience. Gerald J. |

| Do yourself a favor, find a factory Manuel. I have purchased reprints and all I have are junk. Pictures are totally black, pages missing or out of order, or completely missing. The Manuel I recieved with my 200 is a factory reprint and it is awful. |

Like Gerald says, I usually get original manuals on E-bay for reasonable prices. It will not tell you how to restore it though. ------------- '49 G, '54 WD45, '55 CA, '56 WD45D, '57 WD45, '58 D14, '59 D14, '60 D14, '63 D15D, '66 D15II, '66 D21II, '67 D17IV, '67 D17IVD, '67 190XTD, '73 620, '76 185, '77 175, '84 8030, '85 6080 |

Reasonably readable online. I'm a bit old fashioned and like paper so I'm going to follow Gerald & DSeries' advice and look for one on ebay! https://www.scribd.com/doc/244289500/Allis-Chalmers-WD-Factory-Service-Manual" rel="nofollow - https://www.scribd.com/doc/244289500/Allis-Chalmers-WD-Factory-Service-Manual edit: amazon has reproductions by Haynes as well. Fingers crossed!  |
