Description
When your 456 diesel is getting tired—burning oil, running rough, or just not pulling like it used to—it's time for a rebuild. This basic overhaul kit gives you everything you need to bring that engine back to life without breaking the bank. You'll have your tractor running strong again, ready for another season of hard work.
What You're Getting
- .010" oversized pistons and rings for improved compression and reduced oil consumption

- Pin bushings that'll handle the stress and keep everything tight
- Full overhaul gasket set to seal everything up proper
- Tru-Power quality parts that mechanics trust for reliable rebuilds
Built for Real Farm Work
This kit fits Ford New Holland tractors with 456 diesel engines, including the 8010 (to 5/1998), 8240, and 8340 models. These are the workhorses you see running big implements, handling heavy tillage, and putting in long days during planting and harvest. Whether you're pulling a chisel plow or running a grain cart, this engine rebuild will get you back to full power.
Made to Last
Farm engines take a beating, and these Tru-Power components are built to handle it. The oversized pistons give you a fresh start with better compression, while the quality bearings are designed to handle the loads these big diesels put out. Everything's manufactured to meet or exceed original specifications.
Installation Notes
This is a basic kit, so you'll need to have your crankshaft checked and possibly turned by a machine shop. Most folks take the block to a good diesel shop for the rebuild—it's worth doing right the first time. Make sure to check your cylinder bores and have them honed if needed for the best ring seal.
