In Reply to: Ford 2N vs Minneapolis-Moline 335 advice? posted by remocut on April 29, 2019 at 10:16:00:

Go look upstate then and forget both on them. I own a 9N and i also own a 2N or it has owned me for 75 years and yes it could be made to do what you want, if you spend years looking for the right things go on it as it probably does not at present have them. Finding a drawbar that would work for pulling the trailer those parts can be found at swap meets easily enough but what you say I dought you are going to find any swap meets to go to. You cannot use a drawbar kit on a 9 or 2N that fits an 8N and even with the proper orignal hitch for the 2N it is not a good item for trailer use. Dad had made one back in the 50's to get something decent to pull with. You can use a loader off the built in hydrolic system but you have to tye the lift arms down and then it would only work with the clutch enguaged along with the power shaft and most loaders to fit them are the jungle jim type that you have to climb up on the back end of tractor to get on. And even to find a good one with all the mounting parts would be a night mare. But the same goes for finding a loader for the MM. What you are wanting to do would require a tilt bucket on the loader and finding a loader for either tractor with that would also be the nightmare. The Ford was a good tractor for what they were designed for and what you are wanting to do they were not designed for. Now if you would find a Ford of 1955 up it would likely do what you are wanting and parts should not be to bad to get. Now the Moline there probly was only a hundreth as many made so very scarce to find any attachments for but were probably good just not sold in my area. Now a bigger 445 was sold around here but still I would look for something that would work a lot better for you. Haven't seen any Moline 445 in anyplace except shows for the last 20 years so if they were that scarce think about finding anybody to work on them or anything to work with them either. As far as a 335 only ever saw possibly 5 at most at shows so you know there are very few of them out there. Any Ferguson from a TO 35 up should work along with any MF tractors, the Fords from 55 up Oliver S55 or 550 but not ploenty of them around either and be sure if you get any tractor it already has the loader mounted and has a good sollid, non swinging drawbar or lift arm drawbar as those with a trailer are deadly. I would not recomend any John Deere as the models that would be good for what you are wanting would be unaffordable, could buy a fairly new tractor for same price. Not many models of IHC that would be a good choise either. Case also not sold around here. You need something that was sold in the area. Otherwise no parts or anybody that knows enough about them to help you with them.

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. ... [Read Article]
