Recommended Posts

JERSEYHAWG /  Glenn

Ok, I am looking at this 1996 520h, why is the pedal in this picture seem like it doesn't sit right? My 1995 520h, I didn't have long enough to remember. Do you guys see anything wrong with the position of the pedal. As always, thanks for advice and comments.

Just a guess but maybe the brake pad is worn badly and it is way out of adjustment. Looks like the foot/step rest is badly bent also as it doesnt tuck up under the fender.

I have one with the floor pan issue as well. It came about from sloppy tire chains getting caught. The previous owner caught it on fire trying to straighten or removing the floor pan . Made for a good deal for me. I don't remember about the pedal.

Walked out in the garage looked and took a measurement on a 310-8 - the pedal should be standing up 4" to the pedal pad and facing the operator - the pad on this tractors pedal is facing straight up towards the hood - methinks the pedal is broke or was broke and poorly welded . I've had linkage off pedals before and they didn't lay/sit like that.

That is a later model pedal. They sit different.

 

Mine are all early models so I cannot do a measurement.

Jack, yes on the foot/ step rest. Bent pretty good to. He has a new one of those. The funky pedal is what bothers me. Amazing with only 351 hours on the machine.

It wouldnt deter me if price and hours were right. And hours seem very right.

Here's a '96 520 I pulled off Google images you can use for reference - you can clearly see something isn't right on that pedal.

Looking at the pedal and the way the footboard is chewed up where it meets the fenderpan, what happened on that side underneath?

I recently sold this 52-H but I have an identical pedal if you need one.  Me thinks this is a '97 model....

Idk . Judging by the photo above.. that brake pedal looks about right to me. Could be out of adjustment or just parking brake is set. Now the foot rest is a whole other story......

Jack, what year is yours? I forgot.

 

yes, that brake pedal on the one I am looking at might be in the correct position. BIG MIGHT......but this does call for further investigation seeing my money tree died.

 

Thanks for all the comments guys. If any one else spots anything let me know. I am still investigating it. Not sure yet.

 

THE ASKING PRICE is 1400.....IMHO ,,a bit high considering. I do like the low hours. But I just bought one that needs a redo.  WHO HAS A " C L E A N " one they want to sell?  come on guys....one of you has one......lol

I can not tell Glenn. Is that the one with the gold lettering. The anniversary model? I saw a very clean one at out local equipment auction in April go for 1250. I quit bidding at 800. It was low hours but surged.

Just a shot in the dark here, but I'm guessing tire chains are the culprit.....They can do some damage if the catch:hide:

I have a 91, 96 with gold trim and a 97, all have the same high rise pedal. When looking up part numbers, there is a -01 at the end of the number on late models.

Glenn, you should be ashamed of yourself for having so many near mint, low hour :wh:'s Send a few to Iowa for a vacation, I'll give them free room and board!!!!      :lol:

As far as the position of the brake pedal, It is unlike any I have seen My 95 looks the same as my 88 and both look like the picture googled above.

My short legs would have a problem reaching yours.  :)
