It's nice to see a plowing bee with small tractors on the plows. My dad used to plow with an 806 and a 5 bottom Oliver plow, and a 650 with the 4 bottom and a WD-9 with a 4 bottom. Now we use an IH770 6 bottom plow and a 1066 or 1206 up front.
Thats an F14. Easiest way to tell is slanted steering shaft and longer brake levers. F12s steering shaft is parallel to the hood and has very short brake levers.
This is one of the last F-12s. The tag says 12. It is withing just a few numbers of the last one... they started doing the upgrades before the 14 was released. It has some 12 features as well as the 14 features.
Good day Nice video, You know W-4 really didn't fool around on road, they had a nice little pace. Is F-12 stronger than 4. What were other tractors. Yes we had nice weather up here in Ont until today. Thanks.
Hi Don! A couple of years ago I found a complete, tight front end for the W4.. it handles like a car on the road now! The F-12 originally had a 113 c.i. engine, same size as the FarmallA, B, C. When I went through the engine on my F-12 I installed sleeves and aluminum pistons from a Farmall 140 taking it to 123c.i. I also spent a lot of time making everything "just right" inside too, so it's pretty gutsy for a little F-12. It's quite enjoyable to play with. Thanks!
@@FarmallDoctor I never knew that you could put C123 sleeves and pistons in an F-12! I know those engines are different than the C-113 in the A, B, and C although they displace the same.
@@tyfrank3427 In earlier years of cheaper aftermarket parts, the fellas would take Farmall A sleeves and machine the lower O-ring lands up to fit the old F-12.... but then IHC changed the Farmall 140 era sleeves and they just happen to fit the old '12!
Don, We are plowing this weekend in Forest if you would like to attend! I am taking the W4. Send me your Email or Email me at farmall_doctor@hotmail.com with a contact number and I can give you the address. @DonVoll
