Description

When your big IH is burning oil or starting to sound tired, it’s time for a proper rebuild. There’s nothing worse than being halfway through harvest or planting season when your engine starts knocking or losing power. This basic engine overhaul kit gives you everything you need to bring that 466 turbo diesel back to life and get you back to work.

What You’re Getting

Complete cylinder sleeve set with seals to restore that tight bore clearance
New pistons and rings engineered for the turbo diesel’s higher pressures
Full gasket set so you’re not making multiple trips to town for parts
Crankshaft seals, rod bearings, and main bearings to handle the power
Quality components that’ll run as long as the originals did

Built for Real Farm Work

This kit fits the workhorses of the IH lineup—the big tractors that pull the heavy implements and handle the toughest jobs. We’re talking about the 1470 and 1480 combines, the 3588 and 3788 4WD tractors, and those reliable 5288 through 7488 series row-crop machines that’ve been earning their keep for decades.

Made to Last

Built around the proven 4.3 inch standard bore design, this kit uses the same quality materials and specifications as the original factory parts. The cupped-head pistons are designed specifically for the turbo diesel application, handling the heat and pressure that comes with getting real work done.

Good to Know

This is a basic kit that includes the major wear components but requires separate bearing orders if yours are out of spec. Check your crank and rods before you start—most rebuilds need at least standard bearings. A good machine shop can tell you what you need, and having everything on hand before you tear into it saves time and frustration.
