Your local Case or New Holland dealer can also be a good source.

Your better off creating a photobucket.com account. Upload your pics then copy and paste the IMG code. Paste that code into your post. This way you don't need to re size your pictures.

I have a "60" but its a later model and has wider spring perches. When I install will probably do coil springs/4 link. Not enough time to do engine and diff so a little reinforcing in the meantime. Pardon the crooked bumper, gonna build one soon as I get my press converted to break sheet metal.

Roof rot, all the way across under the windshield gasket. Very time consuming when I have poor body skills. Fellers, if you haven't inspected this area of your truck I highly recommend you do so before it gets to this point.

'06 GMC Sierra seats, front and rear. The rears allow for great storage when not used for sitting.

Did a little blending above the ex valve seat.


Much smoother flow now.


Much less work in the intake, only what was needed for smoother transition.
