| A good description. A few small notes on the Deere models. The 65 was the pull type version of the 55. There is one of each about 10 miles for here. They both had the hercules motor behind the grain tank. All that was really saved in going pull type was the ground drive system, operators platform, rear wheels and steering system. All the other Deere pull types were PTO driven. The 96 was the pull type version of the 95. The 106 was the pull type version of the 105. I believe you are correct in that a 6621 never existed they just stayed with the 6601 model when the 6620 was introduced. I'm not 100% sure of this. Both the 7701 and 7721 existed as you stated.
Most pull types were used with pickups. The hitch was in the way of wide straight cut headers. I did see pictures of a hitch modification to allow a 24' (224) rigid header to be put on a 7721. I think there was no need to change the header opening as the hitch off set things enough for a standard center opening header. Not sure how well it handled side draft on hills. I think is was made by B and D manufacturing or someone like that in Sask Canada. It would be good if someone had some pictures or experience with one would chime in. | |
