I'm looking at old tractors in the 20 - 30 HP range and have been receiving advice in another thread. (Ford vs. Case)
I've gained a new perspective in regards to LPTO, however I am receiving some interesting information from sellers and tractors. I've been looking to confirm whether tractors had the overrunning clutch, and have noticed others identify a slip clutch.
Can you help me understand if these are the same thing? I'm gleaning that I can add a $60 slip clutch to any tractor's PTO. Is the "over-running clutch" a factory feature of the same intention?
I'm looking at a lot of late 40, early 50 Fords and other makes, but trying to stay under 3K. Not finding many of the later Fords (861) with Live PTO, but if I can add the slip clutch for the same effect, it opens up many options.
Thanks in advance.
