Description
When your Ford’s 172 cubic inch gas engine starts burning oil, losing compression, or just doesn’t have the pep it used to, it’s time for a refresh. This basic in-frame overhaul kit gives you the core components to bring that trusty 4-cylinder back to life without pulling the whole engine. It’s a metal head gasket kit that contains sleeves, pistons, rings, pins and retainers, valve-grind gasket set, and oil pan gasket – everything you need for a solid rebuild.
What You’re Getting
- Complete sleeve and piston assembly with 3.9-inch standard bore for proper compression
- Quality rings and pins that seal tight and handle the heat of hard work
- Metal head gasket that won’t blow out like the old composite ones did
- Valve-grind gasket set to seal up the top end properly
- Oil pan gasket to stop those annoying leaks under the tractor
Built for Real Farm Work
These kits fit the Ford 800, 801, 900, 901, and 4000 tractors from 1963-1964 – the workhorses that built America’s farms. Whether you’re running a loader, pulling a disc, or powering a hay baler, these were the tractors that got the job done day after day. The 172 CID gas engine was simple, reliable, and easy to work on.
Made to Last
This Tru-Power kit uses quality components that match or exceed original specifications. The metal head gasket is a big upgrade over the old composite ones that were prone to failure. These parts are built to handle the temperature swings, vibration, and hard use that farm tractors see every day.
Good to Know
This is an in-frame kit, which means you can do the work without pulling the engine completely out of the tractor – a real time-saver in busy seasons. You’ll still need to remove the cylinder head and oil pan, but it’s manageable work for anyone with basic mechanical skills. Make sure to check your cylinder bores for wear and have them measured before you start – sleeves only work with properly prepared bores.
