: The '52- '53 models are Golden Jubilees. The '54 model is an NAA. A '53 Jubilee can be called as an NAA, but a '54 NAA should not be called a Jubilee.
: I think the transmission gear ratios were slightly different between the '52- '53 and the '54 models, but I do not have the numbers before me.
: Call them what you want. Lots of folks call a '54 NAA a "Jubilee." It is essentially the same tractor. The 600-series Ford tractor is essentially the same tractor, too, but few would call a 600 a Jubilee.
Oops. '52 was still an 8n. '53 and '54 were the only years for the NAA. Both called either Golden Jubilee or Jubilee. ONLY differnce was the fixed spider gear (fixed early in the '3 yr model) and a ring of stars on the nose emblem on the '53 that was not on the '54. The 600, although extememly similar, was not the same tractor. They did use the same engine, the OHV "Red Tiger".
