We had a former NYS thruway, '64 4000 s-o-s, many years, did all the work for years on the farm. Spreader, pushing snow as it had a front blade, 535 mower conditioner, M-F side delivery pto rake, 532 ford baler with a thrower and a lamco hay wagon, also had a side mid mount sickle mower on it, we took it off later. Lots of rotary cutter work, with a ford model mower, was square, even had a 2 bottom plow, 7' wide disc, ford post hole digger, that were used at times. I spent a lot of time as a kid on that particular tractor, the trans was in excellent shape when we got it, never had any trouble, right quick down the road in 10th! Power steering, 1 set of remotes, rest-o-ride seat and independent PTO were nice features I miss on my current 850.


Obviously you need a factory service manual, some or many repair parts being obsolete, no aftermarket or new unless N.O.S., salvage or manufactured by someone capable.

I had a high opinion of that 4000, all the hours mowing along the highway, then private use after auctioned off, NYS TA was good on fleet service or was known to be then. That helped, it was a reliable, lower center of gravity which helped a lot here, enough HP/torque to do the above and easy to operate, I'd have another if I knew the trans was in good condition.

Today's Featured Article - Women and Tractors - Tractor Engine Repair - by Teri Burkholder. One of the great things about working on a tractor engine with your other half is that you know what he is thinking of at all times and can anticipate his every move and his next thought of what he will do. With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th ... [Read Article]
