D8H engine stuck
If its been sitting for 9 years and water has got in I highly doubt that you would free it up. As Nige said I would wip the heads of and have a look and make an assessment whether to carry on. Whatever you do it's going to be a fairly big job so tool up and good luck. Bill -

NH 650 round baler twine issues

Rail questions
TBH you can bash away at a pin and all that but the easiest way is to unbolt 2 plates,cut a link out cutting the link in half between the holes,pull track together and bolt pad on and weld up. Half hour job. Bill. -
