Alright, so, I have been trying to cheaply round up parts to fix this 1940 JD A I have, and I ended up buying two more JD A's to do just that, BUT I need to know what to pick!
My good A is:
1940, Hand Start, 4 Spd, Stamped Steel Rear Wheels.
The A I have at home that I bought is:
1942, Hand Start, 6 Spd, Cast Rear Wheels.
The A I have to get still is:
194-, Hand Start, 6 Spd, 1 stamped, 1 cut off flat spoke.
I am planning on stuffing all 3 together to get what I want for a good working, usable tractor, not restoration.
Here is the main question, which hydraulic system do I want?
The 1940 has the on with the pedals, Up and Down.
The 1942 has a lever that come out the right side, and it is like my dads GM, it also has two Aux. Ports, for a cylinder.
Then the 194- has no hydraulics, just PTO. Are these "rare"??
I think that I want the system on the 1942 so that I can run remotes, BUT, how does it work? Am I still just going to have up and down, or will it be adjustable, like "up just a little bit"?
Next question is transmission. I am pretty sure that I want one of the 6 speeds right? More gears is always better, and it gives me a quick road gear to get to where I am going!?
I think that I am going to end up putting my 1940 stuff onto the 1942 rear end, because it already has the hydraulic unit AND the 6 speed, but I am looking for opinions?!?! Plus it has cast wheels for weight, so I won't need fluid, better than stamped right?

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
