[Farmall] Fixing an improvement

[Kevin Weinstock]

in the early 90's I had a 140 with turf tires and a 1000 loader. I liked it 
but I felt the loader didn't have the power I really wanted. It did have a 
hydraulic dump on it. I replaced that tractor with a Super A that had a dual 
arm loader but it only had a trip bucket. I still kick myself for getting 
rid of that 140 but at the time I couldn't afford both. I'm in NW Wisconsin, 
Barron area.

Same in your and Al's area as mine then, they were all on tobacco farms and
in gardens, no loaders.

How about it list, lets hear a roll call of where the offset series IH
tractors with loaders were commonly found. I'm going to guess and say up
North, Mid-west was probably all H and M's.

John,
  I've never seen one with a loader in my neck of the woods.  I could see
the loader being beneficial in feed lot situations etc. Most all these
tractors pulled tobacco trucks and cultivate row crops here.  I remember
using my dad's 140 to plow pepper and the steering sector was so worn it
took about 3/4 turn before anything would happen at the front wheels.  Dad
could plow with it in 3rd gear and not have a problem. I would plow up half
the row not being used to the loose wheel.  I took a lot of ribbing from him
for that one!!

Al, a couple folks have mentioned loaders on these tractors. I can only
recall seeing one with a loader around here, how about your neck of the
woods? I may have seen a couple more at antique shows but don't recall.
Wonder what section of the country were these popular?

I wonder, on the 140 if you could use a power steering steering wheel from
another IH tractor, since they were smaller, but basically look the same.

Everything from the Super A-1 on up is definately a little tougher to use
with that great big steering wheel....
