60 acre hillside said: (quoted from post at 17:39:13 12/31/11) At the time the M was built thet were the best reactor made and to this day they were the best tractor IHC ever made. I have 10 IHC tractors and 2 of them are M;s Also an H but the H is too small to be much good unless it has an increaded bore kit.I put new old stock flat head original bore kit in mine
The only negative thing was they both needed another gear between 4th and 5th
While I agree that they were a good tractor and the best of their day I don't agree that they were the best. Got one. Gets used maybe 20 hours a year. Soon as I can afford it it's going down the road so it can be replaced by a better tractor like a 706. I would not buy another one. Don't like how they handle, too expensive to put good hydraulics or power steering on and lacks a 3 point. Plus I myself like the looks of the 60's and newer IH tractors way better......but thats just my opinion.
