I just bought a Hydro 70 Saturday at an estate sale. Thanks to those who answered my horsepower questions. Next question : while I've had 656 and 826 hydros in the past, this is my first acquaintence with the 70. I bought it with a 2-point hitch and have found that the 2 point is spung about 6 inches wider than it should be. In seeking to fix this problem I've aslo discovered that 70s were never built with 2 point hitches. The line setting ticket which was supplied to me at the sale also says the tractor was built with a 3 point. I'm guessing that the deceased farmer switched it out with some other tractor at some point. Does this sound like an apt conclusion? I can probably get the necessary parts to convert it back for around $700.00 used at Abilene Machine. Does anybody know a cheaper place? AM says there is no value in my 2 point parts. Is that correct? Thanks!
