    Grand slam of supers

    I finally completed my Grand slam of Supers. Just picked up a nice 2072 tonight. This completes the my grand slam 1572,1772,1872 and 2072. Like most siblings they are very similar but very different. The 1572 is the worker of the bunch with a rear PTO and 3 pnt. This tractor is a beast ready for...

    Tow hook on Super

    Kraig, my dad always told me not to cut corners when making something (poor attempt at a joke) already planned on cutting ends thought it would look better just have not had the time. Now that I have a reciever I am thinking of fabing a platform sort of a carry all for when doing yard work...

    Tow hook on Super

    For some reason I always thought a Super would look better with a tow hook on the front. So as I was getting ready for plow day I decided to throw one together. I do think it makes the super look better but it also worked very well as I used it to pull a few out at plow day. What do ya think?

    1572,1772 temperature differance

    Any ideas why my 1772 runs about 20 degrees cooler (130) than my 1572 (150). I checked the thermostats both are in and working. I used a laser thermometer and checked all around engine, Thermostat housing and radiator and all are about 20 degrees cooler. I also put a thermometer in radiater...

    What would you carry

    My 1772 has a tool box on the back. Whith the limited space what would you carry. I am thinking 3/4 wrench for 3pnt, 15/16 wrench for 3pnt plow. Extra hair pins and hitch pins. I would like to carry a hammer but any one that would fit is not really big enough to be of any help. Any ideas on what...

    1772 lift problem

    It seems (and I am not sure why or what changed becaused everything was working fine) that my lift lever is now hitting the upper edge of the opening in the dash not allowing the linkage enough travel to push the valve in to move the cylinder. I tried to move the valve up on the steering column...

    Diesel won't start

    Meter shows about 1000 but was not working when I got tractor. Quote $1200 for valve job, rebuild injectors and new bearings in altenator. Not sure what could make them bad all of a sudden after it overheated.

    Supers in the Sun

    The Supers came out to get some sun today, but they were a little sad since their little sister is in the shop in need of a valve job. Hope she is ready for plow day.

    Diesel won't start

    Finally found out why 1572 would not start. It seems the valves are worn and does not allow for enough compression. The head is at the machine shop now. I am just waiting to see what the cost for valve job will be. I am guessing not cheap. I am hopeing to have it back for the PA plow day. I was...

    Diesel vs gas tractor value

    Recently a very very nice 1872 was for sale near me. It was one of the nicest I ever saw. It sold in less than 24hrs for full price $2000. No 3pnt, rear pto or deck just tractor.This got me thinking what would an equally equipped and conditioned 1572 or 1772 be worth. I have been told a diesel...

    1772 coolant

    I was topping off the radiator today and did not remember I had stored some hydro fluid in an old antifreeze jug. I poured probably 1/2 to an oz of hydro fluid into the radiator before I realized I had the wrong jug. How big a deal is this?

    1772 temp gauge

    Anybody know of any good replacement for the temp gauge on a 1772. Kubota still offers one but they want $130. I can't find where the probe is on the engine if there is a probe. From looking at a wireing diagram there is non. Any help well appreciated. __________________ Charles
