5010-first production tractor over 100 HP.--people said wow--5020 about the same. 6030--Deere got it together--Turbo-Intercooler-In-line model p-injection pump--better cooling--rated at 175 HP. but of course with a 10 mm. wrench the HP. was almost unlimited--would run all day at over 200 HP. I had a 5010 with a add on turbo--could not keep it cool going with the wind under load--was set at 150 HP. I have no idea how much a new 6030/7520 engine would cost from Deere but maybe the cost was a lot more than a V-6 or 8-71 Detroit. In the early 90's I found a Deere 8630 with a bad motor and checked with my Kinze dealer about putting a 855 Cummins in it and if I remember it was right at $29,000 so I bought a used Steiger ST-250 on a consignment sale for $14,250...The 619 is a very good motor-In a excavator or chopper-they will run forever--but got a bad reputation in the tractor. If you ever saw a 8630 frame laying on the floor you would be amazed how thin they are. The worst thing you could do is put a dozer on them and run over something so the axle goes stop to stop--It would flex the block and drop a sleeve. Deeres answer was to put more webbing in the block in the 50 series-was a poor band-aid-they got it right with the 60 series-went component-problem solved.--That's all---Tee Son's 8630 with a Commings 855 big cam in it--pull tractor Restored 6030 at state fair--NOT mine--wished it was Turboed 5010--My Dad rented a farm where the last renter got stuck combining beans-told my towm girl wife to work the tracks shut and she got a little close-got two inches of rain that night.

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
