Hey guys how has everyone been? Well after several years I finally got another wheel horse (third I’ve owned). From what the guy told me, it’s a 1973 Automatic 14. I guess one year only thing? Anyway, I’ll get some pics up of it. It has an electric lift, not sure if anyone has any info on electric lifts. This one has one on it, but the cylinder is off. If someone has pics of theirs that would be awesome.

Congrats Justin :woo and good to see you. :thumb1

That electric lift was made for the older manual transmission tractors, yours would use the hydro lift option and run off of the hydro system. The hydro pump and valve body is in the way of getting that one on the tractor. I've attached a manual on the electric one you have.

Hi Geno! I don’t think it’s an original electric ram. This tractors wiring is cobbled together and has some weird brackets going on.

On another note: was wondering if anyone had the center plastic part for the shifter, also the shifter itself. The plastic is bad on mine and some really smart person decided to bend my “go lever”.

I would try to save and fix everything there, those are some hard to find parts, 73 is the only year for the center shift like that one.

What about the electric lift components? I don’t think I have everything.

Everything is not there and it won't fit the tractor without making some kind of mess out of it. See post #2 lol. :tounge2

I figured that. So on this model there is no way to put hydraulic lift on it?

Hydro can be done. There are already ports plugged in the valve body to run the lift. :thumb1

Here is a manual and parts breakdown for the Hydro lift for yours.
