Description
Nothing brings a tired old Ford diesel back to life like a proper engine rebuild. If your 2000 series is burning oil, knocking, or just lost its pep after years of good service, this basic overhaul kit gives you everything you need to restore that three-cylinder heart to reliable power. These kits contain standard pistons & rings, pin bushings, complete gasket set, so you can tackle the rebuild without hunting down parts all over creation.
What You're Getting
- Standard pistons and rings engineered for the 158 CID three-cylinder diesel engine
- Pin bushings that provide proper clearances for smooth piston operation
- Complete gasket set seals everything from head to oil pan for leak-free performance
- All components sized for the 4.2-inch standard bore configuration
- Quality Tru-Power manufacturing that meets original Ford specifications
Built for Real Farm Work
This kit is designed specifically for Ford 2000 tractors from 1965 through 1975—those reliable utility machines that handled everything from hay work to cultivation. These three-cylinder diesels were workhorses in their day, and with a proper rebuild using quality parts, they'll keep serving for years to come.
Made to Last
Tru-Power has been building engine components for farm equipment longer than most of us have been farming. Their pistons are cast to handle the compression and heat of diesel operation, while the gasket set uses materials that stay sealed through temperature cycling and vibration.
Good to Know
This is a basic kit, so you'll need to source main and rod bearings separately if yours need replacement. Always check bore dimensions and have cylinders honed if needed before installing new pistons. Take time to properly clean all surfaces—old gasket material and carbon buildup will cause problems with even the best new parts.
