Got a guy that's selling a tractor bundle. Ford 631 that's a project as it doesn't run, but has brand new rear tires. And a MF 65 that runs but the 3 point arms do not work.
Guy told me he tried to add fluid to the MF 3 pt arms by removing a cover that's right under your right butt cheek as you sit on the tractor. When he removed the cover it was under pressure and shot out oil. After they got the cover off and added oil and put it back together the arms didn't work. He also mentioned he thinks his cousin forgot to put an o ring back on when they were reassembling. Long story short. The arms did work, but now they don't. Does this sound like a minor or major issue to resolve? If anyone has a parts break down of this system I'd appreciate that.
Also, the hubs are different 6" vs 8" bolt pattern, but any idea if the rims would swap between the MF and Ford? The tires are all 13.6-28. Seems like the rims might be interchangeable too. But would like to know before I buy the Ford too as I'm really only interested in the tires.
Thanks in advance.
