Check out a 560 parts manual sometime. The 5-speed gear box in the first 560's is almost identical to the one in the last 560's, so that was not the problem. Now check out the pages on the differential. The differential was totally changed about halfway through production. At the top of the page, it will say something like "stamp a triangle on serial number tags of early production tractors after installing updated differential". Finally, check out the page on the final drives. About the only change there was the inner axle bearings. 1960 was the year that Deere got ahead of IH. IH's big row-crop tractor was the 65 horsepower 560, and Deere comes along with the 80 horsepower 4010 (totally different from the 2-cylinders) which had a transmission and hydraulics that were way ahead of their time. Deere used that transmission right up to the '90's, and that hydraulic pump is still being used today.
