Built for Real Farm Work
This kit is designed for Ford New Holland tractors including the 8360 (9/1995 & up), 8560 (9/1995 & up), TM135, TM150, and TM165. These are serious machines—high-horsepower row-crop and utility tractors that handle everything from heavy tillage and planting to harvest work and loader operations. When you're running 12-hour days in peak season, you need an engine that won't let you down.
Made to Last
Tru-Power components are built to handle the demands of agricultural work. These aren't cheap rebuild parts that'll have you doing this job again in a couple years. The pistons, rings, and bearings are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM specifications, giving you the reliability you expect from a quality rebuild.
Good to Know
This is a basic kit, so you'll want to inspect your cylinder sleeves, valves, and other wear items during teardown. If the cylinders need boring or honing, plan for that work before assembly. The 0.020 bearings indicate this kit is for a crankshaft that's been turned 0.020 undersized, so make sure your measurements match before ordering. A good shop manual and proper torque specs are your friends on this job.
