leeave96 490 #1 Posted January 18, 2014 I read/see a goodly amount of posts on the GT-14, but really don't know much about them. Are they a "big" C series, sharing engines, tranny's, etc or completely different like the D series? What years were they sold? Where did they fit in he Wheelhorse line-up who was the targeted user? What were the desirable features and what aspects of the tractor drive the owner/restorer crazy? Do decks, blades, etc interchange with the C series? Clevis or 3 pt rear hitch - hydro or manual lift? Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks! Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meadowfield 2,754 #2 Posted January 18, 2014 I guess you could say they are a big C-140 hydro. Engine is interchangeable with all horses, some ancillaries are different... Hubs and wheels are different, 15" on the rear. Some had the optional 3 point linkage fitted, making them pretty versatile and desirable. GT's in Europe are pretty thin on the ground and it's hard to find tidy working examples. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stigian 1,234 #3 Posted January 18, 2014 I love my GT but at the moment you couldn't say it was tidy or working! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neil 2,410 #4 Posted January 18, 2014 Bill, the GT 14 is bigger in size than a C series & smaller than the D , Its attachments are designed to only fit the GT14 & are not interchangeable with any of the other wheelhorses. they were made between 69 to 73 They are an extremaly good heavy duty tractor & are very desirable both here in Europe & in US If you have the oportunity to buy one i would highly recommend them , they are one of my favorite & anyone that owns one would probably say the same . But any wheelhorse is a good tractor in my opinion . The ply known problem that i know of with the GT14 is that thefuel tanks tend to melt as they are made of plastic & are very close to the heat from the exhaust . The gearbox is a very stong sundstrand hydro gearbox . all in all a good work horse Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
