IH 123 vs IH 125

Whats the difference between the two just the header size? I found a 125 on a place that my parents are trying to buy.

125 has a lower grain bin with an unloading auger while the 123 has a gravity dump bin.

125 has a wide axle rear end while the 123 has a tricycle rear end.

125 has a platform auger to the feeder chain while the 123 has an auger on each side taking it to a canvas in the middle which takes it to the feeder chain.

Both are 12 ft headers.

Thanks but this one has a tricycle rear end on it. This one also has duals on both sides.

Sounds like you've found a 123.Nothing I have shows the 125 with a tricycle rear end.

Both the 123 and 125 were available with 9x24 duals.

What grain bin does this one have?

The bin is missing go figure but it looks as though it has the low mounts and it is a 125 according to the decal.

Some of the early 125s had Farmall H steering bolster with it dual wheels at the back for steering, later ones had wide rear axle. Don"t have the parts book handy to see when the change took place.
