Description
When your high-horsepower tractor starts burning oil or losing compression, there's nothing worse than wondering how much an engine rebuild is going to cost you. This basic overhaul kit gives you everything you need to get your 456 turbo diesel back to factory specs without breaking the bank. It's the same kind of kit mechanics have been using for decades to keep these workhorses running strong.
What You're Getting
- Standard pistons and rings that restore proper compression and reduce oil consumption
- 0.020" main bearings and connecting rod bearings for reliable crankshaft support
- Pin bushings that eliminate wrist pin knock and ensure smooth operation
- Complete overhaul gasket set to seal everything up tight
Built for Real Farm Work
This kit fits the heavy-duty tractors that power today's farming operations—8360, 8560, TM135, TM150, and TM165 models from September 1995 and up. These are the machines you'll find pulling big implements, running loaders, and handling the tough jobs that smaller tractors just can't manage. Whether you're planting corn, harvesting beans, or moving feed, this engine has the power to get it done.
Made to Last
Tru-Power builds these components to handle the stress and heat of turbo diesel operation. The bearings are engineered for the higher loads these engines produce, and the gaskets are designed to hold up against the pressure and temperature swings you get with turbocharged operation.
Installation Notes
This is a basic kit, so you'll want to have your cylinders checked for wear and your crankshaft inspected before you start. Most shops will hone the cylinders and check bearing clearances as part of the rebuild process. If you're doing the work yourself, make sure you have a good torque wrench and follow the proper sequence for the main cap bolts.
