: Any ideas on home built tractor? We are going to use a ford truck rear end 273 or 355 ratio.A6cyl .We are trying to decied on a hydraulic moter with sprocket and chain coupled to the rear end or two transmisions in line.And forget the hydraulic drive . Any ideas? Thanks for the help P.S THANKS BONEHEAD. B.Neal

Are you going to use the 3/4 ton axle? Someone mentioned that it might be a better choice than the 9 inch diff. YOu might see if you can find an older axle with deeper gears. I've got all my projects on hold for a few days while I clear a field. I still like the idea about finding an old swather to pirate the hydrostatic drive. Have fun, Me
