OK, do you think a stock Super H wheel weighted to 7500 lbs. can pull more than a stock 60 wheel weighted to 7500 lbs. at the same speed....1st gear in the Farmall and 2nd gear in the John Deere, is about as close as you can get...right down to engine stall out? Or 2nd in the Farmall and 3rd in the John Deere maybe...
How did the weights of the tractors compare that were pulling the rotary hoe back then? As I remember 60's weighed about 1500 more lbs than Super H's on the average...of course they could nave been weighted up to weigh the same, but were they? I ask this because I've always noticed that light tractors pull light loads better than heavy tractors do....but light tractors have a lot of slippage and power loss pulling heavy loads that heavy tractor handle quite well.
About 30 years ago I put my 4 row International cultivator on my neighbor's Super H that I was considering buying. The Super H was really a nice one with good power, but it had a he--uvva time in hills with the same cultivator my Super M handled quite easily any where and on the level it was all the SH wanted in 2nd gear, but it did fairly well, but wouldn't pull any hills to speak of and I had to "cheat it up" a little.. The Super M would haul it in 4th if I wanted to go that fast and up any but the steepest hills. A friend with a 60 used a 4 row cultivqator okay anywhere he wanted he said.

Today's Featured Article - Ford Super Dexta - by Anthony West. The rusty blue tractor caught my eye as my truck zipped by the farm implement business. It looked so fornlorn amongst the lineup of newer equipment. But it was just the right size for my small farm. I stopped in and asked the proprietor for further information. "It's a 64 Ford Super Dexta", he said. "It's a tough little tractor, although it's a hard starter being a diesel and all." He did manage to get it running, compliments of a can of ether. Once started it putted along pretty good. It
