Any news on 86hp Mahindra?

[bindian]

While at Top Flight Equipment, yesterday, I saw a new 7060. It looked identical to my 6520. The new sales rep told me it is replacing the 6520 and the 8560 is replacing the 7520. Only difference I can see is the new Tier III engines and the fact that my 6520 loader will lift more, while the 8560's loader will lift 200 more pounds then a 7520. Which ups that weight to 4100 pounds. Got the brochure also.
So much for a new higher horsepower Mahindra! Just new Tier III engines mostly. Even the rubber is the same size!

yeah, the TYM700 and T7074 both use the same 2.9 engine that's in my JD 5203(all 5003 series acctually, excluding the 5603). i dont know if they're turbocharged or not, but the one's in the 5003's are. the engines are assembled by Deere in their Mexico plant and have also been used in the 5005 series, 5010 series, and i want to say the 5220 but don't quote me on that. theyre really good engines and i'm suprised that Deere is supplying them to TYM and Montana. guess they got a contract with big $$$. i have ownded a tractor with a Yanmar diesel in it, and I acctually prefer the JD Powertech engine as I think it's smoother and i just think the sound is better.

It is the turbocharged 3029T JD engine.

those are some fantastic engines with stellar reputations. my only concern is they are pretty small to be put in that size of tractor. they're only 179 ci, i would expect 200 ci or so at the minimum. i was told those engines are rated to go up to 85hp so that should be right at the limit of what it's capable of.

The T580 TYM had the same engine minus the turbo. Since the frame of the T700 is a 40-50 hp chassis the 179 ci has been fine so far as we have seen. I have a few customers over the 2500 hour mark. Engines have been bulletproof clutches on the other hand have not.

Here's the specs for the 7060 4wd, 8560 2wd, and 8560 4wd. Not the best scan in the world, but I think you can read it.

RollingsFarms,
The engine puts out 203.2 ci.

i see that on the spread sheet posted and was confused thinking they were using the 2.9 Deere engine. must not be the case, or they may have changed it recently. the engine i thought they were using was the 3029T but it's the 3329.

The Mahindra models do not use the Deere engines.

That has been an across the board issue as I understand...
