Ross: The 56 series tractors were with out question the very best IH ever built, and the 656 was no exception. It will run a 9' haybine on about 1.25 US gal of fuel per hour. I had 16.9x38 on rear of my 656 and without wheel weights or chloride it would pull a IH 510, 5x16 semi-mount plow. I always plowed 7 to 8 inches deep. I will grant you it was a sandy loam soil. I will say this the 16.9 tires made the tractor, it came with 15.5. The larger tires gave just a bit better ground clearence, and a whole lot more traction.
