Looking to buy a 698 w/cab&air, any thing special to look for? The good, bad and ugly?

The cabs were made by Landini and rust like h**l. Check also the MFWD axle for leaks and slackness around the centre pivot, there was mod after mod and it never really got properly sorted, can involve new castings if too far gone. The 698 with the Perkins AT4.236 (turbo) was actually called the 698T, and was not just a 675 with a turbo, gearbox and rear axle is different, the 698 has the Perkins A4.318 motor. Get a 12 speed (no multi-power) if you can find one.

hi the cabs on the 600 series mf were prone to rusting alot. there were two different 698s one had a perkins 236 turbo the other had a perkins 318 engine.engine wise they should be good the 236 was considered a very good engine. gearbox/backend should also be good.multipower gave problems.
