Loader tractor (good deal made my decision)
Saturday I'm going to pick up a Farmall H with a good working loader. The tractor is not rusted out, and is supposed to run very well, and the loader works good. Cylinders do not leak. It needs the rear tires replaced, and I'll have to convert it to a wide front. Not sure of the year, I didn't really care, so I didn't ask. For now we'll just classify it as old. It has a 3pt hitch and a rear pto drive. Comes with both a snow bucket and a dirt bucket, and a set of tire chains. $400.
Anything I should know or expect? I would've really liked to get a Cub with a loader, but this was just too good of a deal to pass up, and is within 50 miles of me.

As soon as I pick it up I'll get pics up. I've seen a picture of the tractor, but the loader wasn't on it. I hope it's not the old style of loader (long skinny arms that don't lift very high). But if it is, it'll be an excuse to buy a better one.
This will look nice sitting in the shop next to my $10 dollar Brinly one bottom. :biggrin2.gif:

The Farmall H with a loader that we had on the farm did not have live hydraulics or PTO. It was an early model.
The loader we had on the H would not work with a wide front end. This is what the H and loader we had look like: |

This one has a rear pto, but I didn't ask about live power. I would asume no, since it's such an old machine, but I guess I won't be sure until I get there. I believe the loader on this one is quite a bit newer than that one, if not, it'll go on craigslist quick! Was it really good for much? How high would it lift?

I don't think any letter series Farmall had a live PTO. A Super H might have had live hydraulics, but even if it did, any loader would be run off of another pump from the PTO.

The loader would raise 7-8 feet at full lift. The bucket did not have hydraulics on it. It had a spring to return the bucket back to home. Our H did not have power steering, live hydraulics and live PTO. It was a bear to steer. We use that H and loader set up for 15 to 20 years. |

We have an M with live hydraulics and power steering (no loader). I believe it was an after market M&W add on, not sure exactly the setup though.

Chances are I'll use the loader that's on it for now, finda good deal on a bigger loader with it's own pump down the road, and sell the one I have.
If this one turns out to be less than desirable, that is.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
