This crankshaft gets your trusty MF back to work with the reliable power you depend on for everything from plowing to hay season.

Built for Real Farm Work
This crankshaft fits the Massey Ferguson 65 and 165 models that were the backbone of small to medium-sized farming operations. Whether you’re using your 65 for loader work around the farmstead or running your 165 through row-crop operations, these tractors earned their reputation for reliability with quality components like this crankshaft at their heart.
Made to Last
The Perkins AD4.203 is a proven engine design that powered thousands of farm tractors through decades of hard work. This crankshaft is built to match that durability, with proper bearing surfaces and journal dimensions that ensure long service life. The rope seal design was the standard for these engines and provides reliable sealing when properly installed.
Good to Know
A crankshaft replacement is major engine work that requires proper tools and experience. The 62956K version includes main and rod bearings, which saves you the trouble of sourcing them separately. Make sure to have the block checked for straightness and bearing bore condition while you’re doing the work. This is also a good time to replace the clutch, pressure plate, and rear main seal while everything’s apart.
