I want to buy a 1973-74 Case W14 wheel loader ($8500) It's supposed to have a new engine and break job in last 2 years with little use since the repairs but the guy moved his office and can't find the receipts. He says everything works, good tires, just a little rusty (could use a paint job)...

I've been looking for a used 555 and noticed that a lot of them have rebuilt motors with only around 3000 hours on the machines. Seems like the engines didn't last too long before needing a rebuild. Any inside info on those motors? Thanks.

I was reading an article in the Irish Farmers Journal about a Landini tractor and they said: "The Perkins AT 4.236 engine, producing 93hp in the original 9880s, is about as reliable as they come. Everyone in the know says this will go for at least 10,000hrs without any attention, provided it is...

I was speaking to the U.S. importer for Deutz-Fahr tractors and he told me they will be phasing out the importation of tractors with Deutz air-cooled engines. This is due to emission and noise regulations coming into effect for tractors. The air-cooled engine doesn't do well. They will still...

I got a catalog on the new Zetor Proxima and they changed the color from red (Range 1 Super) to a shade of orange. You can see the new color at zetor.com also.

Here's the new Zetor website for Zetor North America: zetor.com http://24.104.29.38/ or skip the intro: http://24.104.29.38/modules.php?name=Intro&op=SkipIntro

Are the Case JX & JXC the same tractor as New Holland models? Are they made in the same factory with similar engines and parts? Thanks.

The Zetor Range 1 tractors (4341) seem to be a good solid tractor and a good buy. I'm sorry they will be dropping this model for the Forterra series. Are they similar tractors? Will the Forterra be open platform? Any spec's would be appreciated. The Zetor 3pt hitch lifts double what most...

I came across this Michelin tire pressure calculator at the Michelin website. Sorry, but it's only good for Michelin tires. Hope it helps somebody. http://www.michelinag.com/agx/en-US/htbuyt/electronic_calculator/electronic_calculator.jsp?mspn=EmptyMSPN&Units=English&flag=false

Any idea why the different designations for 4WD tractors at this link: http://www.michelinag.com/agx/en-US/products/products_application_grid.jsp or what do they mean by MFWA? Thanks.

no more Zetor 4341 till Spring \'05 My local dealer said there's no more Zetor 4341 models in the USA till Spring '05. I'm waiting cause they'll offer R4 industrial tires and hopefully tilt/telescoping steering when they arrive. The new 102Sl loader is self leveling and a strong loader. All...

I cut up my credit cards 10 years ago and went cash only. Now I can't finance a tractor because I have no established credit lines. I have $5k to put down on a tractor & loader. I need the tractor for my new business. Any suggestions for a "hard to finance" tractor buyer? Thanks for any help.

I came across an Alabama state contract to buy NH tractors and one of the dealers sold a new NH TL80A for almost 40% off list price. $25,750 list and sold to the state for $15,455. Seems like a lot off list. How many percent off could a regular joe get? Thanks.

I was looking at loader capacity in the Mahindra specs and notice that: #2310HST 4wd 25hp 6.3 gal pump output gets ML108H loader #2810HST 4wd 28HP 6.3 gal pump output gets ML108H loader #3510HST 4wd 34HP 6.4 gal pump output gets ML108H loader ****#2310HST (25HP) equals lift of #2810HST (28HP)...

I looked at couple of MF's (1455v and the 461) and noticed quite a difference in the rear axle size. The 461 (made in Brazil) axle was massive (5,456 lb. tractor) and the 1455v (made in Japan) looked undersized (comparatively) for a 3,560 pound tractor. I'm not degrading the 1455v but it...

Congrat's to Muhammad Chishti for starting this website and to all the people that have helped build this very valuable tractor database. The info here has been a big help. I've never even been on a tractor but I'm starting a new business (merchant of stone walls) and I think a tractor with FEL...
