which tractor is bigger JD 830D or IH 660D
 

hey guys, im wondering whats a bigger tractor in general, these JD 830 diesels which are worked and always win the pull, [the non painted one always wins] or my IH 660 diesel, the 660 pics are from google images exept the one in the garage, thats mine:biggrin2: mine has a working TA, and is a long tractor and weights about 9000lbs or more according to specs [bare tractor]without weights, mine has weights and filled tires. the 830 is about 8000lbs or more i cant seem to get a exact answer, but i read the 830 was the 660s competition and the 660 was a bit ahead of its time, the 830 has 76HP. i read mine can reach into the 90s HP if turned up injector pump which mine has , just looking for opinions, my opinion is the 660 is bigger, what do you guys think? mine is ready to go and fully serviced and will be pulling this weekend , also read the injector pump turned up can reach 30 more HP mine is turned up, i think one of the 660s in the picss was auctioned off ,

I have never seen a 660IH in person but I have seen a 830 Deere Diesel up close and them things are monsters for thier day and time.

i agree, but i believe the 660 is heavier and more horsepower, also longer, but cant guarantee anything

Is the 660 on the same basic frame as the 460 and 560's with just a larger engine? Where abouts in NY do you pull that beast at?

the 660 has the same frame i believe as a 560, same engine,model D282, exept the pump makes it have more HP and its bigger, [muh more heavier] we will pull with the 660 for the first time in our club this weekend on long island

the 660 is much heavier than a 560

the 560 spins up to 1800rpm, the 660 spins up to 2400rpm i think

The 560 and 660 had different rear ends. The 560 had bull pinion final drives, the 660 had planetary finals. 660 was only offered as a "wheatland" style tractor. 560 Diesel, high idle no load, 1965 RPM. 660 Diesel, high idle no load, 2615 RPM.

wow thanks jonathan, so which is bigger 660?:bigthink:

Toss up. VERY comparable tractors. 660 is heavy, and has higher RPM, JD has more cubes, and you can lug the motor to near stall... tough call. I am nothing but a IH tractor man..... but the Deere 830D will give you a run for your money. You gonna pull the 660?
