KWB Alot that is said about the 560's weak rear end seems to be nonsense, Our 560 has seen a lot of plowing in 1st gear, TA back and black smoke rolling out. It pulled a 4 bottom plow, 14 foot Digger and 13 foot disk for many years and had no problems with the rear end. Also there are several 560's that pull in my area and I have yet to see one wreck the rear during a pull, Some run in the 10,000 lb 100hp class after they pull in 7500ld 65 hp and Are very competetive. Funny I Don't see many 730's or 720's in the pulls I would like to see a 560 and 730 pull against each other with equal wieght on the 560, I think the Deere is about 2000lbs heavier so at stock wieght the winner is obvious. The way we farm is going parallel to the fences not straight at them although a 560 with a IH wide front does not turn real short. I have one with a "short turn kit" and it turns as short as a narrow front. The only thing I like about a 730 is the 3 pt lever being located besides the seat vs on the side of the dash. My $.02 and probabaly not worth that much as I have spent way more time on a 560 than a Deere Wheels

Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
