I have had 8 n's and 3 Jubilees for over 52 years.Every 20 years or so I do a complete rebuild,paint,etc. I have used these to farm 145 acres for these past 50+ years in the Spring,summer, and Fall. In the fall/winter, I build log homes in which I use the n's to lift logs( I have broken 3 of those allredy made booms, and had to make mine out of 15 inch steel cylinders) I am amazed that so many people post here with problems with n's. I never have a problem with my tractors except changing the oil(maintanence). I don't pull standard implements either- 7ft brush hoggs, 14 ft disk harrows,8 ft turning plows, 12ft bush&bogs, and 14 ft cultivators just to name a few. Thes old so called farmers that laughed at the n's when they were introduced as being too small or had or say they so called saw people getting disgusted with these tractors, just didn't know how to farm properly, and the people they saw didn't either. If you know how to farm , the 8n or Jubilee will do anything you need to do(I've never got stuck in a field,only know it alls do this lol)- YOU MUST KNOW HOW TO FARM!
And these funk conversions are pretty to look at, but I've had several, and THEY were jokes, just stick with the old 4 cyl flathead!!!!! ! They are good I guess for the pull the kids on the wagon, or drive around the yard, but DON'T hook those jokes to a plow!!!Confused by all the "problems" that people here post, in Georgia
