Case La Didn't let me down

Dutchman · Oct 23, 2009

My son has a Dodge 2 wheel drive 3/4 ton pick-up w/ a 32 feet 5th wheel camper ... needed some work done on it and the only way to get it to the shop is thur the buff acreas [ prairie grasses ]
Anyway he made it 1/2 way and spin out ... { I forgot to mention we got 2 1/2 inches of rain , from wednesday to this morning }
So I got the Case La out and a chain , hook up to the front and told my son to put it in NEUTRAL ,. to see what I could do ... Put it in 2nd and it started to spin a little put pulled him to solid ground ...
I was smileing from ear to ear ... my son didn't think I could move it [ pick-up w/camper, he said the camper weights 9 - 10 thousand w/o the pick-up ]
<>
That just made my day .. thought I would share ...

My IH 400 weights 6850 lbs and would not start. I used my 89 Chev 4x4, with its little 4.3 6 cyclinder engine to pull it up an incline through soft dirt. Then I pulled the distributor cap an found the some insect had packed the coil receptacle with dirt. A good day twice.

Even though the LA was notorious for going through gas like it was water, it has power through that big drive chain final drive.
