| | ditto what the others said. fords of that era are great plow and disc machines.. but do not become good tilelr machines without a howard or everette post tranny.. or a 8 or 10spd.. MAYBEE a 6. As dean and old said. 5spd/ 1st gear in good worked soil and you might get by.. etc..

| Tiller??? If you refer to a rototiller, then I agree with others. If we are talking about a field cultivator type tiller, then you can easily handle the load. I have done many gardens and a few fields with this type of tiller over the years.

| | It will have enough power in most conditions but the ground speed will be too fast in all but ideal conditions. Dean

| 1st gear would be the only gear that may work. Even then 1st can be a tad bit fast for a tiller. HP is around 45 give ot take a bit and yes a 6 footer is about right and a 5 footer probably would be better

| Not sure it it will work with a 5 speed. I know it should work with a 4 speed but always heard the Aux trans only work with the 4 speed trans

| I have another 4 speed 700 that I could use. I was curious about the hydraulics. The Jubilee is external off the pump, but the 700 runs internal through the trans. Is there a fix or work around?

| Both the Jubilee and the 700 have engine mounted hyd pumps and the line go into the transmission housing so it should in theory work
