Can an 806 engine be swapped into a 826 with the German diesel? My 806 has a bad torque and a noise in the transmission and our neighbor has an 826 with a bad engine. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

The easiest thing is to combine the front half of the 806 with the rear half of the 826. They will bolt right together as KB says. You do NOT want to get into transplanting the engine.

However, this isn't a simple backyard project. You need a large shop with a smooth concrete floor. You will need two sets of splitting stands with the ability to roll both front-to-back, and side-to-side so you can roll the 826 front end out of the way, then slide the 806 front end in place.

The 826 rear end has what I consider nicer pedals, and a larger platform.

Split both tractors, bolt entire front half of 806 to rear of 826. Swap throttle linkage and fuel lines as needed, use the 806 sheetmetal. Use the better of the two front axles. Keep in mind that the fuel tank stays with the rear half, and that the 826 fuel tank is about 10 gallons smaller. 826 rear end had quite a few improvements over the 806/early 856.

The job is more than just swapping engines. Consider it as changing everything from the split forwards.

The bolt pattern in the clutch housings are the same. If you can do the job with both tractors near each other, with the right equipment, it would not be too bad of a job.

If you take the motor out of the 806 I may be interested in the remaining pieces. I have a 806 that was stripped down for pulling and am looking for the pieces to put it back to original. My email is open. Thanks
