    My dad had one U model in his fleet, the thing got wrecked 3 or 4 times before he finally said "no more!" and junked it.

    You could even call them a large SUV.

    My truck has air start...I love it. Saves a lot on batteries, and easier to jump start (if you got another truck or an air compressor).

    Sharp looking U model. The trailer next to it looks like a see-through display trailer with an old pickup in it. I don't believe I've ever seen one of those.

    Looks like a nice clean truck!

    He might have to throw in some cash if you got those to trade.

    Looks pretty good...ad says it runs and drives, $8,500. I spy a B model and gooseneck in the photo. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/673491740127431

    You're right, but some people loosely call tube type rims "split". A true split rim is actually split.

    There's a super nice sign museum in Cincinnati that I've been to...your wall almost looks like one of theirs.

    The replacement is an MX5100. It has been abused so not photogenic, but it runs good and hydraulics are strong.

    I think your rear fenders look nicer than those.

    Any idea how much? I got a quote of $2,000 to recast my steering wheel.

    BTW, that's a nice looking jib you made for your forklift.

    If you're using the Cummins they put in Dodge pickups, that's a good motor. 673 is a good motor but it's old technology and some parts are hard to find. There are thousands of B models around, it won't hurt to modify a few of them.

    I had this tractor for mowing my field and pulling old Macks around with. I also had an old Bobcat 610, decided to sell these and buy one tractor with a loader so I could free up space in the shop. This is a 1986 Kubota M4050, it has a 48 hp 6 cylinder diesel. The 6 cyl. has a nice sound and it's a lot smoother than the more common 4 cyl. tractors.

    It's good that you ask but these days if someone posts a photo on a public web page they'd better figure it's going to get shared around.

    The original front diff chewed up a bearing in the top reduction so there was a lot of damage. I bought another diff from Fuzzy Buzzard and it had good bearings.

    I'll spray some oil in there; if I drive the truck now and then it will splash gear lube around. The truck sat for probably 35 years so no splash lubrication.

    You got to post pictures of the U model!

    I went to install my differentials the other day and when I stuck the blow gun back into the axle housings from the center, some rust flakes blew out. I stuck my head down into the center and I could see where the round ends were inserted into the square center tube, leaving gaps at the corners. Over the years of sitting a lot of rust formed. I washed it out thoroughly with diesel fuel and the blow gun...hopefully now I can put those diffs in.

    Used to be when you googled a certain model of truck, a lot of photos from Hank's would come up. Now most of the matches are on Pinterest and you have to join the site to look at the large photo.

    One of the best-looking B models I've ever seen.
