Hugh,
The rear end casting on the Farmall B-450 was basicly the same as the casting of a M or SM. However the top was completely different. The rock shaft and lift arms were built in simular to the Farmall 656 rather than seperate add on as the 450 or 560 used.
Richard,
The Farmall B-450 was imported to the Memphis District which served the Mississippi and Arkansas Delta areas because most of the tractors in this area were operated by tractor drivers rather than owner operators and received hard use , often with little continuing or preventive maintenance. At the time IH changed from the Farmall 450's to the six cylinder 560's with more complicated systems, many farm owners wanted a simple new tractor in the same horsepower range, thus IH offered the Farmall version of the B-450 to the South and Texas only. They performed excellently but they were soon made obsolute by size on the large farming operations, ie 806, etc.
