This is the D10 Series 3 with hi/low transmission, factory 3 point, just unloaded it, seems to be ok, no gear jumping! The wheel color, grille & muffler are wrong, anything else?? Almost forgot, got it for $1900, Don't ya just love when everybody at the action is looking for green red & blue???

| Hard to read the serial, paint too thick and that front rockshaft is in the way. I may have done OK on this one! Had a low tractor fund & kinda cold, almost went home glad I didn't !!! |

You came out great on that one. Went to the local Young Farmers auction yesterday but everything I wanted some one else wanted more. Have not seen any Allis there in several years. ------------- Just an old country boy saved by the grace of God. |

| Be sure to check the 3 bolts that hang the 3 point hitch, below the rear. The achilles heel of these tractors is that all 3 bolts stick upward, and tend to work their way loose. If the last one in there is the only one holding the 3ph, it soon strips out or breaks off... |

Keith, that is the tractor that I was looking at. Seemed to be a really straight tractor with little wear for our area. Glad to see someone on here got it (what a bargain!!), I was kicking myself for not going but already had a D10 and didn't have the shed space. Where are you located? I'm in Red House. |

Nice! A steal! Im curious about the 57-60 era F100 in the background? Had a 59. Would like another. ------------- sometimes I walk out to my shop and look around and think "Who's the idiot that owns this place?" |

| yep, folks round here use to bragg how fast their 140 could row up tobacco land .... then they saw our little ca making 2 rows at a time !! this is the 3rd d-10 for me, they are small enough not to compact the land, yet still plenty of power !! |

If those 3 bolts are like the ones on the D14, here's what I did. I ran a tap in and out of the holes until I got all of the crap out of the holes. I probably used half dozen cans of brake cleaner to clean them out. I got thread rod , and cut pieces off of it. I put lock tite on the pieces and ran them into the holes. You need to lock two nuts together to get them into the holes. I put the three point up in place and put the nuts on, then I ran a second nut on each of them to lock the first nut in place. Now it's real solid. It was coming lose like Dave mentioned, but not anymore. ------------- D14, D17, 5020, 612H, CASE 446 |
