Built for Real Farm Work
These gasket kits are designed for Ford 801, 901, and early 4000 series tractors from 1958 to 1964 that came with the 172 cubic inch diesel engine. These were the backbone tractors of their era – tough, reliable machines used for everything from plowing and cultivating to running balers and mowing. If you’ve got one of these classics still earning its keep around the farm, this kit will help keep it running strong for years to come.
Made to Last
Farm tractors work in dusty, dirty conditions with constant temperature changes from cold morning starts to all-day operation under load. These gaskets are built from materials that can handle the thermal cycling and maintain their seal through countless hours of operation. The head gasket uses composite construction that won’t blow out under pressure, while oil seals resist the breakdown that comes from continuous exposure to hot diesel oil.
Installation Notes
This is major engine work that requires pulling the head and oil pan, so plan accordingly. Having all the gaskets in one kit means you won’t get halfway through the job and discover you’re missing a critical seal. Take your time cleaning all the mating surfaces – any old gasket material or dirt will cause leaks that’ll have you doing the job over again.
