The Farmall H also had an enclosed steering system, unlike Case with its exposed arm on the front of the tractor. While it admittedly didn't have a 3-point hitch or live pto or live hydraulics, many of its contemporaries didn't have 'em, either. Considering its 1939 introduction, when many farms still didn't have electricity, its usefulness was quite progressive, in light of the technology it replaced. In light of modern technology, it was crude. But if the H didn't have enough power for you, why not step up to the M...as many farmers did back then? Safety note: most H's that came out on steel wheels had a pin that locked out the slider rail for 5th gear...the pin was removable, in anticipation of when/if they were converted to rubber. How's THAT for anticipatory thinking from the factory?
