Thanks Don, and everyone else, for the input regarding these two tractors. I have to say that I would be hard pressed to buy anything other than Red. As I said before, I've had good experiences with both tractors. The main purpose of the tractors in question would be to pull a small chisel plow. Our neighbor pulls a five shank mounted chisel with a 1970 4020 with powershift. It will pull it, but that tractor gets quite a workout. My gut feeling is that an 856 would be the better tactor for this type of work.
Around my area(S. MN), you cant seem to touch a good 4020 for under $8000.00. If I was to spend that kind of money, I could step into a '72 1066 that has less than 500 hrs on the motor,TA, and clutch. And in my opinion ,1066 would outclass the 4020 and 4320 hands down.
Also, if the TA eliminator kit was used, how does it affect the lugging power of the tractor??
Again, thanks much for the input. IH1
