Mike, as far as I can recollect the 44 was made in a few variants other than the 44 row crop: a standard tread, a vinyard model, a wheatland, and an orchard, they could be had in gas, deisel, propane or disatalate fuels, the row crop was available in tricycle, wide or single front end, they made a 44-6 which was a 6 cylinder continental engined version, who knows maybe a high crop and an industrial although I have never heard of or seen one of those...but a 44K? New to me. The most common were a 4 cylinder, gas burning row crop...my Father spent years on one, said it took 3 men, a boy and a tribe of pigmys to mount the cultivators, and they didn't have alot of traction compared to a farmall M or obviously a John Deere A, (certainly more than an Oliver 88 or a comparable AC), but he still loved it...said the Farmall M they owned occasionally had to bail it out of slippery traction needing situations. Also said the PTO was so high it took U joints outta implements at a craxy rate...then they introduced the 444 which at least took care of the PTO issue...but sill no 44K that I am aware of! Pete
