I use a SMTA putting up hay and other chores. I purchased mine a few years ago from a guy who bought it new when the numbered series came out. He told me it was a Super M. It was stuck as the muffler had colapsed and it was outside. It hadn't run in several years and before that he just used it on a blade pushing snow. I was a JD guy and had run Ms quite a bit before but he only wanted $100 for it and I figured I would part it out. Had an after market 3 point on it already. I got to looking it over and realized it had too many levers for a super M, got to talking to guys who knew more about them and found it was a SMTA. The TA was out on low side, tires held air long enough to get it home, single front wheel, rear wheels cracked near centers. I pulled it home and started working on engine, broke a sleeve so I put in new piston sleeve kit and got valves ground a friend had the tricycle front with 2 tires so put it on, bought new rear wheels and tires from another friend. Eventually split tractor and fixed the TA with new ramp and rollers, overhauled engine completely, new cam, gear came loose and cracked out keyway on it. It is a great tractor with the TA, live pto and live hydraulics and use it on the baler and swather. They are getting harder to find but are neat old tractors.
