Anyone pulling A 1755?

[Anonymous-0]

I just bought a 1755 Diesel and was thinking of pulling it at a few local pulls. Just wondering what weight class you are pulling and if the 1755 is a good puller? Should I be sacred of pulling a 310 with 7000 Hrs? Thanks for any help.

If that 310 has not been overhauled and not had any updates you should be terrified of farming with it let alone pulling with it. More than likely with 7000 hours it has been worked on at some point. There are big questions even if work was supposedly done to it. Was a complete major overhaul with all updates correctly done performed? Or, did someone do an elcheapo inframe with stock parts? I would be very leary of pulling this tractor unless you have detailed knowledge of its repair history.

Great tractor other than the motor, pull an 1950 or something along that line

If it made it to 7000 hrs ,it is a good one.If the oil pressure holds hot above 20 run it.I run a turbo 310 in a 1600. The motor has 3800 hrs all I did was bearings and of course new rod bolts. It runs 3000 rpm, 3LM charger,270 lbs fuel pressure .20 4 hole injectors,.93 injector lines. 280 hp. It works for me.

Wow! I'm surprised the bottom end will take that, even more surprised you can get a head gasket to hold. Or did you do something different for head gasket retention?

It all depends on the rules you are pulling under. They can pull pretty good in real stock classes from 9000 to 12000#. I suggest calling Brad Maibach at Maibach Tractor (330-939-4192) in Creston Ohio.
