Thoughts on Making 1st pulling tractor?

Recommended Posts

Jacksonbros

We are wanting to turn a tractor into a pulling tractor. My dad and I have a C-175. Would this be a good starter? If so, can I buy a bolt-on kit for the wheelie bars and hitch or should I build them?

First you need to know what the rules are for where you want to pull.   Is your 175 a hydro or standard?   You can buy a hitch on ebay or make your own, The wheely bars I haven't seen anyone making but there not hard to make or have made

It's a standard transmission. Thanks for the info, I really appreciate it.

and depending on how much weight you plan on puling make sure you have a 8 pinion tranny.  i learned the hard way that 4 pinion trannys are weak and no good for pulling.

How do you tell the difference between transmissions?

to be honest you have to ask some more expierenced guys on this forum.  but the axels have either 1 in or 1 1/8 diameter.
