SAM58 30 #1 Posted December 3, 2014 (edited) I am trying to confirm the Model & year of this tractor, I think it is a 1972 Raider 12. I want to know for sure before I drive 7 hours round trip to pick it up. Thanks Edited December 3, 2014 by SAM58 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,197 #2 Posted December 3, 2014 You got it...paperwork says it is a 1972 Raider 12. Model # 1-0311. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ_Thanatos 516 #3 Posted December 3, 2014 (edited) I think you are right. 72' Raider should have a K301 and an 8-speed 5073 trans. Edited December 3, 2014 by AJ_Thanatos 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,197 #4 Posted December 3, 2014 Also, if that is the original transmission, and it probably is...the # 5073 transmission is a 10 pinion limited slip differential. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SAM58 30 #5 Posted December 3, 2014 Thanks guys for the info i have been out of touch for awhile, I haven't bought or sold any tractors for about two years. My wife had been sick with colon cancer. She passed away September 26th, 2014 at the age of 54 and I am thinking about getting one to restore to keep me busy. I believe this is one i will pursue, because it is the same tractor that started me with Wheel Horse. We have had a Raider 12 in the family since 1973. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
