Just wondering if anyone would know the value of a 350 Hi Utility It is in fair condition, it runs but could use some carb work and a paint job. I would consider selling it. |

Less than 1900 units total 877 gasoline remainder diesel. If pretty clean with good tires and steering, probably between 3000 and 4000. Jim |

Do you know anyone interested? I don't really need to sell it but it doesn't get used much here and is in the way in the shed. Thanks for the quick reply. |

Exactly what was the purpose of the high utility? Was it just that instead of sitting up higher like a row crop, you sit lower stratling the tranny? Kind of like an AC D- series. |

I don't have a good answer for that. As far as clearance, I have a 460 HU which uses the same rear end and wheels as a row crop 460. In other words the rear clearance is the same. If the 460 RC has a WF the front clearance should be the same too. The utility/HU has a swept back front axle meaning that the turning radius is less than with the WF on the 460, but more than the NF. Also the utility/HU will not turn as short because with a locked rear wheel, the tire will slide and it will not "turn on a dime" like the row crop will. If the HU was made for taller crops in wide rows (front axle straddles the row) I don't think it will accept front mount cultivators which were popular in that day. I bought the tractor because it is relatively rare (400+ built) and the price was right--but I would like for someone to tell me what the advantage of the 350 and 460 HU's are over the rowcrops with a WF. |

It provides row crop clearance with minimal overhead clearance. According to Guy Fay, the main purpose was for shade tobacco.
Observe that the Farmall 240 and 340 are similar to a high utility. |

That makes sense, I forgot about tobacco. I don't know how my 460 got into western KS, though. |
