Mitsubishi MT160 Reviews
Steering Box
Model Year: 1988
As far as the tractor goes, it did what I wanted it to do. I wasn't doing any farming so didn't need a big one. I chose the 16hp one, as the 18hp, I felt, would've been too big for what I was doing with it, which was mainly clearing land, and mowing grass. Its only downfall was the steering box. It was definitely a "Mickey Mouse" setup and fell far below what I thought of Japanese made products. I've rebuilt it a couple of times and even purchased a new one. The rebuilds, as well as the new one, didn't last anywhere near the time the original one did. Would I but another Mitsubishi again? Absolutely not!
Pros: Value, size.
Cons: Steering box.

Good Tractor
Model Year: 1985
This tractor is great! It has a 3 CYL 20 HP Diesel engine and if you can get traction it wont quit. 3 point CAT 1 hitch with a 3 speed PTO up to 560 RPM runs my 5 foot brush hog with no problem. It cam with a 60" belly mower which worked great but I took it off to put a 1845 QT FEL. Lovin it !
Pros: Runs all day on a gallon of fuel.
Cons: Little difficult to add external hydraulics for implements.
