Sit a 666 and a 460 side by side. Same frame rails. Same torque tube. Nobody argues that the 460 is based on the H.
This is my last comment on this. Believe what you want to believe. I know when I'm beat.
Just because the width of the frame rails and torque tube measures the same, means it's BASED on an H? Gee, if my car's bellhousing is the same width as my H, was my car based on a Farmall H?
Back to original question - I would say the 666 was one of THE BEST tracctors IH ever built. Nice size, easy to manuever, efficient, reliable, bulletproof. Just near perfect in my book.
Hugh - Dad's 1086 has been run with duals and about 1000 pounds of suitcase weights up front since new and is nearing 10,000 hours. The front end center bushing and pin were replaced/rebuilt around 8000 hours. Spindles have never been off of it, probably put several tie-rod ends on each side (outboard only, the insides maybe replaced once each). We have always run the 4-rib tires, if that makes any difference. What are your issues with the 1066 front end? Just asking for future reference...
