Description
When your IH 400 or 450 series tractor starts burning oil, making noise, or losing power, it’s time to face the music—your engine needs attention. This basic in-frame kit lets you tackle the rebuild without pulling the whole engine, getting you back to work faster and keeping costs reasonable. It’s everything you need to freshen up that reliable 264 CID gas engine that’s powered countless hours of honest farm work.
What You’re Getting
- Complete sleeve and seal set that restores proper compression and stops oil burning
- New pistons, rings, pins and retainers engineered for the stepped-head design these engines use
- Valve-grind gasket set so you can freshen up the head while you’re at it
- Oil pan gasket included because you’ll need it when everything’s back together
Built for Real Farm Work
This kit fits the 400, W400, 450, and W450 series tractors that have been the backbone of family farms for decades. Whether yours is a utility tractor handling loader work and cultivation or a row-crop machine that’s seen thousands of acres, these engines are known for their durability. When properly rebuilt, they’ll give you many more years of dependable service pulling plows, running balers, or powering whatever implement you hook up.
Made to Last
This Tru-Power kit uses quality components that match the original specifications your engine was built to. The stepped-head pistons are designed specifically for these IH engines, and the sleeve sets maintain the proper bore dimensions for long-term reliability. You’re getting parts that understand the demands of farm work—not generic components that might work.
Installation Notes
This is an in-frame job, which means the engine block stays in the tractor. You’ll need to remove the head, oil pan, and pistons to install the new sleeves and components. It’s a good time to check your valves and have the head serviced if needed. Take your time with sleeve installation—proper alignment and sealing here prevents problems down the road.
