bluegreen Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Somebody on here had swapped the roof of a 7624 onto a 5713 which made a world of difference!! Looked really good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hajo Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 That one looks a million times better than the original by UH. Hoped they would have learned from their previous mistakes with the 5613, but they haven't ... I still have a scrap model on the bench, waiting for new wheels and some more work to be done.

bluegreen Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Jacks put the wheels and tyres off the MF5480 model on it which are probably more correct than the ones UH has on it...…………………..I think the cab frame and glazing(plastic) on the 5713 is better than the 7726...……………..by that I mean the 7726/ 7626/ 7624 all had those annoying little black dots on the glazing next to the pillars which had the effect of making the pillars look too wide!! I had considered buying a 7726 and a 5610 or whatever was the cheapest version available and then swapping the cabs over and roofs of course just to see how much better it would look, jacks model proves to me that it would look very good...…………………………….but I will let someone else do the mod as im only into older Masseys presently Jacks model has a front weight and not the front links that the previous incarnations of the little Massey had Paul.

Hajo Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Sorry for a late reaction, but indeed, those wheels ... and the cab roof, I don't like the overall stand on this model. But I have already found why those rear wheels are put so far out, if you ever get the chance, pull off the rear wheels and take a look at the miserable way UH fitted the cab to the fenders. Nothing my Dremel couldn't fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Palmer Posted January 15, 2019 Author Share Posted January 15, 2019 thanks for replying Hajo,how did they fit the cab to the mudguards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hajo Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 They have some sort of lips sticking through the mudguards holding the cab in place, and also managed to put a screw in too .... I have only cut it off on one side off my project tractor (I know ....) so I should be able to post a picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hajo Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 This is actually a 5430, but I think the 5613 and 5713 will have the same mountings for the cab under the fenders. That would explain why the wheels on these models are so far out and larger wheels can only be fitted if these mountings are cut off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
