Deere made two cylinder standards with adjustable width front axles. The rear wheels were also adjustable for width with a rack & pinion adjustment to roll the wheel centers along the length of the axle. The Standards had the front axle under the tractor. The wide rowcrops placed the axle infront of the tractor. The Standards had much larger/wider/higher fenders and a full operator's platform floor. The Standards used a wide 26,30 or 34" rim/tire. The rowcrops used 38" and 42" rim/tires. In the 10 & 20 series New Generation. The primary difference between standards & rowcrops were the rear fenders, tire options, drawbar style and I think front axles? Rowcrop or standard the tractors could be ordered with or without rockshaft/three point hitch, pto, power steering or even hydraulics, depending. There is the legendary story of the economically minded farmer who wanted to order a replacement for his old 1940's vintage A in the early 1960's. Much to his dealers dismay he ordered a 1010 gasser narrow rowcrop without the rollo-matic front axle, no power steering, no pto, no rockshaft & no hydraulics. I don't know he was cheap or didn't like change. My Father cursed three point hitches for being in the way until he bought a snowblower, then later a semi mounted plough.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. 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.
