The 2000 could have a 4 speed or a 5 speed, sos wasnt available. The 4000 did have the option of sos. I would pass on any sos equipped tractor. back in the day dad knew someone with another 4000, same year but the tricycle front select-o-speed. Both had a similar disk hooked up and the 5-speed outpaced the sos like it had more power. On paper the sos didnt seem like a bad idea, but it was rushed into production without alot of testing. You read about sos issues all the time, the only 5-speed issue ive heard of is not staying in 3rd. ours was used hard. 3-14 plow, 12 disc. 3rd was the gear it had the most hours in. never had a issue with it. Finding the middle spot for 1-2 was my only issue, that and the clutch before I had enough leg control to release it smoothly. (I first started driving it around 10 y/o) Once you couldnt get leaded fuel anymore the 4000 always ran on the warm side. My grandfather on moms side bought it new. Ive only ever seen 1 other wide-front 5-speed. any other 4000 Ive seen has been a tricycle sos. Ive not seen may 2000s either. I ran across a 960 a few years back, they wanted 4K for that. seemed a bit high so I passed. Could get a N any given day of the week. Dad has a 46 bought new by his parents. Its still used to this day, I painted it (the correct dark grey) about 5 years ago and added the top plate & pump from a 8N to give it postion control. Going to work on the trailer today, needs lights & saftey chains put on for the trip. The 2000 im going to check out has suprizingly been for sale for a month. Back fenders are dark blue , every picture Ive seen of a 2000 has had buff fenders. this only has the wheels in buff. If it was repainted its been awhile, hard to tell from pictures.

Today's Featured Article - New Hitches For Your Old Tractor - by Chris Pratt. For this article, we are going to make the irrational and unlikely assumption that you purchased an older tractor that is in tip top shape and needs no immediate repairs other than an oil change and a good bath. To the newcomer planning to restore the machine, this means you have everything you need for the moment (something to sit in the shop and just look at for awhile while you read the books). To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
