The engines are the same but Cats cost a lot more than Farm tractors and typically have longer life spans to offset the initial cost. You don't see too many exchange components for tractors. When a tractor is worn out it is usually not cost effective to rebuild it. I saw some used D 11 and D10 Cats for sale that had well over 45,000 hours and were still productive machines. They were used in the oil sands and were sold after they couldn't be depreciated any more. They had already paid for themselfs. The company sold them and bought new ones. You don't see any tractors rebuilt at over 30,000 hours. Dave
