If your choice is between a 1586 and a 5488, definitaly go with the 5488! 1586:
only has 3 gears (plus hi and low and TA - 12 total forward speeds possible - TA is powershifted, but other gears are not synchronized)
63 gallon fuel tank
161 horsepower on the PTO
138 on drawbar
Turbo Diesel of 436 cubic inches
weighs 13,300 lbs 5488:
3 ranges and 6 gears in each range (1-2, 3-4, and 5-6 powershifted, 2-3 and 4-5 are synchronized)
87 gallon fuel tank
187 horsepower on the PTO
164 on drawbar
Turbo Diesel Intercooled of 466 cubic inches
weighs 14,600 lbs Other items of interest: the 5488 has reverse cooling, blows air out the front of the radiator. The radiator plugs less on these, but I have heard of fan bearing problems. 1586 shifting is on the left hand side and hydraulics on the right, 5488 shifting is on the right hand side (don't remember where hydraulic controls are). Both have doors on both sides, both available with 3-point. Both should/could have 20.8x38 tires. Both have proven IH DT-400 series engines (be sure to change the coolant filter/treatment or they will cavitate). Just a few specs and some personal preferences.

Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
