Only 460U I have seen with a true 3 point (not modified F-H) was the experimental one Cessna designed in the early '60s. It was intended for the next generation of IH tractors, but it never went to production. It worked fantastic... I have plowed with it and it would outwork tractors 15-20 HP bigger. Later it was sent to Oliver in Charles City for evaluation, and I believe Cessna allowed Oliver to copy some of the technology. This was in 1966 because I was running some tests on Cessna equipment for Oliver in late '65 when Oliver asked what ever happened to the design. The tractor was resurrected from the "bone pile", re-tested at Hutchinson and shipped to Charles City. It later came home and we used it for some unrelated testing again and the 3 point draft control still worked great.[/list]
