I'm getting rid of a 4700LPX with a T444E engine and I don't want to see another Binder anytime soon. Other than their "can't make it any cheaper, or user unfriendlier" so called interior I don't really have anything against them but after driving this gutless 175HP 4spd. auto turd for 6-7 years I'm ready for something altogether different. The DT466 would be my first choice for an engine I guess but a good 8.3/855 Cummins or an equivalent would be fine too. I'm also getting under 7MPH pulling a tri-axle trailer loaded to about 16,000lbs. so a big 6 would even be an improvement over that. It's going to be my tractor pulling/side work rig so I'm not looking for the best thing around. I'm a Detroit Diesel fan and I'd like to have a nice 8v-71/92 if I could find something decent. Something cheap to fix is what I want. I looked into that tranny that's in it and it looks like I can buy them all day long for 500-750 bucks. If it is in fact a 855 Cummins you can pick them up used reasonable too. So I guess that leaves you with some oddball axle or steering box or something else White used that will bite me in the a$$. What else would I wind up possibly spending extra doe on with an off brand like White?
Plan is to lengthen the frame, license it for under 26,000lbs., haul one to two tractors (10,000lbs worth) and maybe pull my tri-axle trailer loaded to 12,000-14,000lbs. with two tractors (10,000lbs. worth).
Thanks for all the input guys. I forgot about the triple nickle Cummins so I didn't even think to ask if it was a 6 or a V-8. If it is a triple nickle I'll walk. What's the easiest way to tell if it's an 855 or an earlier model?

Today's Featured Article - New Hitches For Your Old Tractor - by Chris Pratt. For this article, we are going to make the irrational and unlikely assumption that you purchased an older tractor that is in tip top shape and needs no immediate repairs other than an oil change and a good bath. To the newcomer planning to restore the machine, this means you have everything you need for the moment (something to sit in the shop and just look at for awhile while you read the books). To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
