looked at two majors, one is the red wheels, not a super. it has problems with the 3pt. lift. the other is a super with lites in the grill. it deceloped a antifreeze leak. the owner changed head gasket but that did not help. this was some time ago. any ideas. he doesnt want much for the pair.

If I could get a pair of Majors for "not much" I'd buy them, but that's why I have a whole yard full of them :lol:
Is the antifreeze leaking into the oil or leaking on the ground? There are a lot of reasons that a Major could leak antifreeze. Some are serious and some aren't. Some of them are, low sleeve, warped head, leaking sleeve o-ring, rust hole in a sleeve, cracked head, and cracked block. Can you start either one of them?

well i dont know if they will start, the owner claims they were both running when parked. dont know just how long ago that was. need to find out more. i may get them anyway, because the one i have needs a total rebuild on the motor, at least the crank, it is shot.
