You talked me into it- new tank, done with it! I went out and measured the tank and this is pretty much the exact same size. The tank on the driver side is steel, so we can just paint it. I ordered this and cancelled the sealer.

Only thing you might need to get would be a tank vent in one of the threaded bunks in the top since it's gas instead of diesel.

I might be wrong but it seems right 

That's a tank off a S series or 4000 series International.  I just put one of the aluminum aftermarket ones like the 4 States  one. The local place here got me for $825 plus tax but it keeps the fuel off the floor much better than the steel one.

It's probably well worth doing a new tank since you've got the old one out.

I think the point got missed here, if you have a broken axle and transmission hand brake

Your hand brake is useless whether your in high or low range 

Plenty of medium trucks from the 60s thru to the 80s and beyond had a 2 speed back axle and a transmission hand brake

Think you blokes call them a park brake

 

Paul

Thanks Paul, that is what the sutuation was juice brakes driveshaft parking brake, snapped off axle .

Oh and I did always park in low range and in 38 years of driving that was the only time I ever broke something like that.

Always drove electric 2 speeds. Found out that downshifting the rear just right going up a steep hill at low speed you can snap an axle right off at the spline. One of those you learn something new everyday things.

Anybody need a set of 10 22 rubber on Daytons?

2 really nice Hankook steers and 4 recap drives.

Located 20 miles south of Boston, I went tubeless

Hey! Whats that thingamajig you added to the top of the bucket? Looks like you stopped at Cumbies for a coffee also.    .....Hippy

Yup cumbys coffee. I was going to weld d rings to the bucket but I saw this on the Vevor website, d rings, grab hooks and a 2" receiver 4 bolts and done.

Get to it Bob. Nice indoor project when weather prevents sanding the DM

Predator not Peedator

Looking good! Makes me want to get my Case 222 going. The Kohler engine seems very worn out so I want to find a little diesel for it. 

I was thinking of repowering my Case 444 with an Onan or Peedator but the iseki can handle the loader much better.  Now I need to rehome the Case.

3 point hitch and suitcase weights yesterday 

It makes a nice motorized wheel barrel for around the yard. Didn't know anything about Iseki until I found this. 

Forgot photos

A few years back I bought a pretty nice Case Ingersoll 444 and put a Kwikway loader on it. Light front axle, 2wd, and hand control for travel  made it too hard to use. So I came across a 4wd Bolens Iseki deisel with a very fresh engine rebuild. Transfered the loader to the bed machine finished it up today.  2 new cylinders for the bucket which necessitated new mounting ears and hoses. Did a new spool valve too. Now back to working on my R Model want to have it painted before Macungie.

I think the Loadstar cab has a different roof, firewall, and floor than the A series, but a lot of the rest of it is the same.  

Yup the roof on the loadstar was taller

I find that interesting. I never saw the resemblance before.  I wonder if the doors  are interchangeable . Is the dash exact same too?   Very cool looking rig . Thanks for sharing . 

I think I can use loadstar glass in the doors. I need new ones so I'm hoping.
