Brake and transmission work on a New Holland TD5020 starts with the right part. This page lists more than 180 items for this TD5000 series tractor.
The TD5020 is a straightforward, sturdy tractor, and the parts that need replacing reflect that: clutch, cooling, front axle and hitch. This page holds more than 180 parts for this model from GRANIT, ROCKINGER, Eaton, GRAMMER and LUK.
Read the type plate and make sure it says TD5020. Many linkage and transmission parts carry a number, so compare it with the reference number shown with the product. If it is the clutch plate you need, count its splines and compare.
For the main clutch there are clutch plates, thrust bearings and complete clutch kits. You will also find gear wheels for the gearbox and transmission shafts. When the clutch is worn, a full kit is the better choice over a plate alone. Plate, pressure assembly and release bearing wear together, and nobody wants to split a tractor twice. When replacing a gear wheel, inspect the gear it meshes with too. Chipped teeth on one side often mean wear on the other.
The linkage is covered by lifting shaft seals and piston sealing rings, which are also listed for Ford, Fiat and Case IH. If the lift shaft leaks, renew both seals together and check whether the shaft is grooved where the lip runs. A worn shaft will make even a new seal leak again before long.
At the front axle there are ball joints. Tighten the castle nut of a new ball joint properly and always fit a fresh split pin. At the rear there are automatic drawbars and Piton Fix hooks, and in the cab Compacto seats and gas struts. On a Piton Fix, check the locking pin and guide for wear at regular intervals.
For the cooling system there are radiator caps and cooling fans. A radiator cap looks like a small part, but one that no longer holds pressure leads to coolant loss and an engine running hot. Never remove the cap on a hot engine. An alternator for the TD5020 is in the range as well. If the battery charges poorly, check belt tension and cable connections before replacing the alternator. A cooling fan with a broken blade throws the engine out of balance and can damage the water pump, so do not leave it too long.
The TD5020 belongs to the TD5000 series from New Holland. The New Holland TD5010 and the New Holland TD5040 each have their own page, which is handy if you look after several tractors from this series. Tractors outside the TD5000 series can be found through New Holland parts.
