Okay - I understand the idea behind the live PTO now... so -- when I'm looking at the M models that have the hydraulic lines coming from the transmission they are not a live setup right? The live hydraulic pump mounts near the distributor correct? The M model I looked at yesterday had two hydraulic style fittings coming out of one side of the belly and one coming out the other. Can someone explain how these setups work please? Also - I looked at a Farmall 450 gas. It had the TA and I think it had a 3pt hitch too. The only thing that concerns me about that is the TA. I've been lurking around on the board here and reading about TA's on the net. I understand that if you operate them improperly you can be talking about a serious amount of cash... how exactly do these work? I really like the M w/ the wide frt, but I don't want to have to spend a ton of cash to make it do what I need... We were talking about the scrape blade. One of you mentioned there are no control arms on the M. If I purchased the 3pt conversion there would be - correct? But then I'm also going to need the live hydraulic pump and related servos/lines so that I have both lift and downforce - right? You guys are right - I am asking a bunch of questions, I just want to make sure that I am doing the right thing here. Since I bought this land I have to sell a 1979 IH Scout II that I spent 3 years doing a body-off-frame restoration on - I'm going to miss it for sure, and am looking for a nice RED tractor to take its place. I realize the Ford may be more practical, but it isn't an IH. I know in this forum you gentlemen understand that.

Box Plow Blues - by Tom Schwarz. One of the first implements most tractor owners obtain is the box plow. For very little money, this piece of equipment promises to plow and flatten any hill or vale on your ranch road or farm. At least that's what I thought! As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
