Allis Chalmers 6140
Model Year: 1984

I been using this tractor to mow 20 acres for over 10 years. Fortunately, the tractor starts easily and performs great. However, I do believe I am on borrowed time as replacement parts for this tractor are very hard to find or do not exist.

Pros: Performance and build quality.
Cons: 1. Lack of available parts.

AC 6140 Dependable
Model Year: 1985

Purchased for site work in building a house and also small timber jobs for removal of logs and firewood. Has done well. This is a 4WD unit. While logging I have a Farmi 3 pt winch mounted and together they perform well. I bought a set of rear chains, but honestly they are not needed in most circumstances. Only problem I have had with the unit is to replace the water pump once. The repair shop was able to get the part, although this is a Japanese made orphan. Also the shifting is a bit rough.

Pros: Efficient, dependable.
Cons: May be hard to get parts in future.
