tbw 0 #31 Posted April 14, 2015 Hi I just wanted to ask if this is the one with the electronic clutch for the front implements. because I have one but it fell apart on the front I think there should be a spring somewhere but that has gone so if possible could you let me know what is on the front and if possible a photo please any help would be much appreciated. P.s has any one heard of a company called K.T.Denison's in Suffolk and what they are like as I have been told that they lot of Ransomes parts. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diggerjames 543 #32 Posted August 27, 2015 Hi all progress has been very slow but now I'm getting on top of my jobs so I decided to get back on to the ransomes as I'm wanting it for snow ploughing duties this winter so I've got the new engine in and the radiator fasten in place and I've now started painting it , 3 pmackellow, Stormin and nigel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 4,458 #46 Posted September 3, 2015 Never heard of gas tyres. Are they helium? 1 diggerjames reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
expeatfarmer 591 #47 Posted September 4, 2015 They certainly are a good machine, if the MG tractors had evolved after 1965 I think this is the machine that would have resulted. I am trying to track down a rear three point linkage for mine and possibly a loader. A snow blower would be good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I nearly bought another last week it was on the bay I was out bid last minute I've ordered the new tyres which should be here next week looking forward to building the snow plough !
