Finished the 4100 tractor this morning. All gears and ranges worked just fine. Owner came and picked it up about 2 hours after I was finished. New projects include a 955 with a bad hydraulic line and a 1026R that needs a loader installed. Started with the 955 so I could get parts on order. The hard hydraulic line from the oil cooler to the filter housing is bad. There were two places where it was rubbed through. One was from the tachometer cable and the other was from the clamp on the front drive line shield. Started and finished installing the loader on the 1026R. That was the second install this week on a 1026R. The time for the install is getting less. I should be able to do the next one in under 2 hours. I don't know how much time is allotted but I should be able to beat that time.
