International 2424

No loader. Just the tractor. I would like a tractor with a loader someday. That's one of my options. Pass on this one and save up more for a tractor with a loader. This one would still be a great upgrade from the Ford 2N. It looks like most commonly needed parts are available here except the engine kit for the gas burner, which is what the one I'm looking at has. Forgot to mention that part in my original post. I should update that.
Junkshow has had a 2504 for 30+ years and it’s our go to for mowing, grain planting, binder work and most small odd and ends during our show and during the off season. The 2424 is a generation newer and a bit smaller, but of the same lineage.
The two features I see in the 2424 is a shift stick vs the dashboard shift that hangs up from time to time like our 2544 and tests one’s religions. The other is the short pto lever instead of the long lever on the left that tears your coat pocket off when you’re getting off the tractor and not looking.
I predict you’ll be content with it.

Mine kinda of has 2 fittings. I’m wondering if the one for the sediment bowl will fit in the opening of the brass elbow where it goes into the tank.
 
I've had my 2424 for almost 40 years and will never part with it. They are an extremely rugged tractor due to the industrial design - heavy duty front end to support a loader and wide stance on the back. These were IH base for backhoes back in the 60's. X2 on crud in the outlet. I had similar problems long ago and turned out there was a chunk of wood - maybe golden rod stem about 2' long in the tank - been there so long it was waterlogged and would occasionally end up blocking the outlet.

Mine was painted red over the yellow - I just re-did it with brushes last summer. You can get an owners manual - I think I got mine from the local Case/Ih dealer. And parts manuals are out there also - I got mine on E-bay for next to nothing.

The brake lock on on the right side of the tractor, right by the brake pedals. Give me a shout over on the IH forum if you have any questions or need part #'s.

Hello Tim I'm looking for the location of the hydraulic filter I have a 67 2424. Also any help with air filter number....
 
Hello all. I posted a request for advice on upgrading from my Ford 2N to something with live PTO and independent lift a while back and got a bunch of great advice. Now I have found a tractor that was not on the list so I'd like advice on it. Probably some from Tim in New York. I looked at an International 2424 for 3,500 OBO and my first impression wasn't great even though I really want to like it for the specs. The starter just spun the first couple of bumps, once running wouldn't stay running long (sounded choked out or starved), had to adjust the clutch pedal because it wouldn't fully depress to engage PTO. Once the clutch was adjusted it would completely depress and he could engage the PTO no problem. But then when it was running it sounded like it was wining a bit in the clutch housing area. My 2N does that and it sounds like rough bearings or something but it's been 10 years like that and still running "fine". The lift on the tractor was strong and very responsive. That's about as far as we got with it due to it not running well. He just got it running and the fuel filter was visibly full of powdery trash that looked like rust. Maybe a clean tank and another carb cleaning will make it run well? Having the 2N for so long gets rid of my fear of having to do some tuning. Not knowing about the hydraulics and that it has external pump under the distributor, I don't know if it could be a more complicated tractor than say an MF35, 50, 135, etc. I really like the specs of the tractor but don't want to bit off more than I could chew. Also, if I hold off till October or November we might be able spend 8-9K on a smaller tractor with loader. Wow. This is longer read than I expected. If you toughed it out I'll appreciate your opinions.
If you want a tractor with a loader, buy a tractor with a loader already on it. Almost impossible to find a good used loader to fit a particular tractor, and you will end up paying more than buying one with a loader already on it. IMO
