Reinforcement Rails For IH Super C Farmall
"Anyone who owns a Farman Super C should consider making this modification," says Michael Thompson, Shepherdsville, Kent., who bolted heavy channel iron rails to the side of his IH Super C Farmall to reinforce the frame.
"We did it after driving into a sinkhole that broke the front end and engine block. The Super C doesn't have a frame up front so the engine took the punishment.
"The 4-in. channel iron rails are 36 1/ 2 in. long. They bolt to existing holes in the frame and transmission so there's no need to drill any holes or modify the tractor in any way.
"Up front, rails bolt to 2 holes in cradle wherecultivator would normally mount. In back, they bolt to transmission.
"When our tractor was originally damaged, it cost us $700 to repair it. Afterwards, we spent just $20 to add these reinforcing rails, which should eliminate any future problems."
