Center of the Universe, Huron County, Ontario. Can | Hi
I'd like to purchase a one owner 6388.
Looked at tractor.
Represented very very accurately.
Looks good, for a 32 year old tractor.
Only real issue is TA is inoperative on low side.
I've always liked the looks of them since a kid.
I'd really add it to my " stable" , would look great along side same year 1460 I have .....
Anyhow,
My questions are:
What is the least $ it takes to install a TA?
How many hours to do it ?
Is it ok to operate w/o low side ? ( where did those failed pieces go ?)
Looked online at Leamans , do I really need a new pump, updated clutch and spline when I'm in there ? ( wouldn't put 40 hours a year on it )
I'd like to do it right.
Is this beyond the technical capability of one with a decent mechanical ability ?
I called local IH dealer , initial reply from service writer was approx $3000.00 , then he called back and apologized after asking techs, said could be $18 000.00
That knocked the wind out of my sails...
Just thought I'd get input from those that replaced T/A's in last couple years.
Thanks
Chris
