Tractorman810 Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 some of you have already seen this in johny mf's post, well tonight after a few bits turned up i got back in the shed and started work on it again, going for more of a display tractor with this one, though it may well get used on the layout hauling a trailer i am pondering building for it .have gone for a proper style hitch on her, along with front hitch, the rear will be fixed in the upright position,minor oversipl with the super glue :'( :'( :'( ,although the front should work ok and naturally after a lot of fiddeling and a cut thumb(deep actually) the usual door work,hopefully i can add the datatronic stuff on the inside of the cab to along with the pod above the front screen for the radio ect to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 3125 was a cracker of a tractor , looking good sean , few more hours to be done yet though mate, going to be worth the wait all the same . totally different, bigger heavier tractor, my dad used to drive one, looks like a 3095 at a distance but different close up, different bonnet etc, 3120 more like a 3095 the 3125 is a true classic in the making, quite lot were sold round here in there day but suffered from reliability problems :'( the 3000 were much more reliable than the 3100 re the turbo, yes the 3125 did have one, they pushed out 126hp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich.new holland Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 magic button never heard of that \ i thought the hydraulics were playing up on our 3095 ,but i was waiting to load one day and read the sticker on the windscreen and it said you have to have it in gear now it works everytime now haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparrow legs Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 marcus, it was mostly mechanical, not always big things but they never went was well as the 3000 ones, my dads dropped a valve after 3000hrs and had to have all the head reskimmed etc, it also lost a circlip off internally in the backend and it took a mechanic 4hrs to fish it out with a magnet on a rod so as not to have to strip the whole back end down! others round here had diffs, gearboxes ext. herd you were chatting to 4c at toytrac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
