Ford 4100

Going to look at a Ford 4100 tractor anything I should pay particular attention to.
Supposed to be in good condition with 2900 hours on it.


Thanks

Should be a great tractor though that model was only built for a couple of years.
Should have the 192 ci engine. Usually diesel though a few gassers were made.
Almost identical to a 4600 SU except for the smaller engine. SU used a 201 ci.
Double reduction rear end, wet disc brakes which are excellent. Independent PTO. 8+ gpm hydraulic pump. Power steering. Diff lock.
Think of one as a 4600 with the lighter, wishbone style front axle and steering like was used on an N.
An all round bullet proof, fantastic utility tractor.

Passed on the tractor has a 8 foot ROP and I have a 7 foot door.

Thanks

It would have been a simple task to remove the
Rops.
And they sell quickly when you see them.
But it's your money. Your call.

Remove then sell it, get a fold down model, I have the same situation, regular size garage door, fold it down, then duck my head as I drive in.
