Pierce county WI | So when I was a kid, at the elementary school, or Jr high school library there was a book about farm equipment published in the 70s. There was a picture of a 1086 open station moldboard plowing with a 720 plow? A dairy farmer I know had bought a brand new 886 with a rops and he said that you couldn't get an 86 series bigger than a 786 without a rops and canopy or cab. I knew I had seen that book in the late 80s or early 90s. If I remember right, a neighbor's boy checked that book out of the library to settle the bet. They did offer a 1086 open station right?
As far as Deere open station, there was a 4240 sold new in our area that was an open station synchro. Also 4040s. I was told that you couldn't get a 4440 without a rops. However, a guy we used to tractor pull with says his dad's open station 4440 puller was factory open station. Is that true? A friend of mine has a 4250 that they sawzalled the 4 post off. That looks like a neat tractor. The Mexican 4455s with the 2 post look pretty badass too. | |
