the gear reduction rear is simply the bulge you see at the axle trumpets... just the design.. inboard wet brakes and all.
3000 would have smaller trumpets and dry brakes outboard..

he really should continue to id this machine rather than keep buying parts for a 3000
he's eventually gonna pay cash for something that won't bolt up.. or if it does bolt up.. won't be correct..
can't wait for him to order a brake kit for a 3000

I called new holland this afternoon and got confirmation it is a 4500 industrial 1966. I confirmed also that the starter I bought for a 3000 will also work in a 4500 it actually works in 43 different ford/nh engines. I looked at tractordata.com and they only show a 63hp rating for the 4500 does anyone know what the drawbar rating is?

That would be 50 hp at the drawbar.
