The International 806 is a different model of 806 than the Farmall. The International was designed for industrial/heavy pulling/low ground clearance work. Because it couldn't have a narrow front, it used an external hydraulic cylinder by the front axle. All International 806's had to have a wide front end, although some were adjustable width and others weren't. They came standard with single hydraulics, a swinging drawbar, and lights mounted in the grill. The Farmall came standard with the tricycle front end with the hydraulic cylinder built into the front casting because an external cylinder wouldn't work. It was taller (used taller rear wheels) and was designed for cultivating and working crops that were taller. It also came standard with dual hydraulics, lights mounted on the sides of the fuel tank cowling and fast hitch, although these options could have been deleted by the purchaser to make the tractor cheaper. The wide front end used on a Farmall 806 had adjustable width and was designed to use the steering system of the tricycle front. Pictures of each are shown below. The top one is our '64 Farmall 806 with the IH front end.
