My 2 cents is probably as many 970/1070 tractors sold as there were IH 966 tractors where I am. The 4020 still commanded that size market during the time the respective tractors competed with each other and more narrowly the 4230 when it came out. The JD's may have not been the most torque-y versus the others but having a full powershift transmission was a huge competitive advantage in the soils here. Had things gone differently for Oliver locally they would have had much more market with their 3 speed hydraul shift. Sometimes to be productive meant having to make a couple powershift changes while on the go which IH's TA could not do. IH 1066's held their share in areas where the soil was fairly consistent and could show off the torque of the 414 turbo but 4430 powershifts were the kings in variable conditions.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
