Complex hydraulic system, any metal or contamination will goober up the whole system. Neighbor had a 1130, 1100, and a 1080 all new at the time. Took a lotta abuse. My brother had a 1100. The multipower, (or amplitorque, hi/lo, or t/a)will freewheel in low going downhill. The brakes have accumulation for 1 and only one stop with the engine out. Do not depress the brake when you light the engine, it will fling your right foot over your shoulder. If you stall out on the road with 12 T of corn behind you don't let it get away from you, did I mention about the 1 stop rule in the accumulator. The brakes are terrific if the engine is running. The 1100 and the 1130 engine look the same but for the turbo, but the 1130 has a lotta internal mods to take the stress. IF you get the chance, plow with it. If it will hi/lo multi power and pull the plows out of the ground on the fly the hydraulics are ok. My brothers would bi center one front wheel with the steering all the way to one side. Your steering is hydraulic too, going down a hi crown road, you will slowly have to turn left to keep going straight. Not all had differential lock. Monster oil capacity in the engine. You will also have down pressure on the 3 pt hitch. Tie the weather cap down if you truck it, the turbo will spin from the breeze.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
