At the time of introduction JD tried to get the more than 2 cylinder tractor right and beat IHC, Case, AC, Oliver competition. JD engineers copied/borrowed best from competition and added extra metal where they were concerned about breakage- carryover from twin production. Transmission gears were strong from old twin days also. Developement was done when JD had enough money to do it mostly right and competition was pushing them in market to go to 4 and 6 cylinder engines- the result was a reasonable advanced, reliable, balanced featured, very usable tractor in a strong market. Still very usable and reasonably priced compared to new tractor. RN
