As soon as the three point hitch patent ran out Deere and most other tractor manufactures equipped their machines with a true three point hitch. The Dubuque model 40 released in 1952 had a true three point hitch.Plus a real drawbar, a high volume hydraulic pump and optional remote hydraulic connection. Try finding those latter two on a Ford? By 1957 the 420/430 and diesel 435 had not only a real three point hitch.Plus a true drawbar, a high volume hydraulic pump and optional remote hydraulic connection. Optional power steering, 5 speed transmission and live pto. Any old Waterloo B,A or G can be retrofitted with a true three point hitch upper link. By 1952/1953 the 50,60,70 had live hydraulics, remote hydraulic couplers, the two lower links of the three point hitch, live pto and in 1954 power steering.Again a true three point hitch 3rd link is a simple "bolt on" matter. The 1957 and later 520/530,620/630 & 720/730(optional diesel) not only had the live hydraulics, a true 3 point hitch and rear hydraulic remotes. They could all have live pto and power steering. The Ford rapidly lost it's market share after 1952.

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.
