Subject: RE: 8700 Ford



NE WI
We have one with 11,400 hours. My dad bought it new in 77'. At the time it was the biggest tractor in the neighborhood.

Engine was overhauled at 6800 hours but that tractor was started every day in the winter for hauling manure.

The dual power has never been touched and neithor has the injector pump.

Last year we replaced the hydraulic pump and clutch, flywheel, pressure plate. It has had a few clutches because dad used to have a loader on it. Loader work was hard on the clutch.

It was our main tractor until we bought a TW30 in 2004. It pulled our 24' IH 496 disk, Chopped with a Gehl 1060, and hauled manure with a Houle 4200 gallon tanker.

Now we use it for planting, spraying and hauling gravity boxes.
