551 Dimensions Published?

Recommended Posts

I have been digging around but cannot find it anywhere.

 

I am looking for the overall dimensions of the 551

Length, width, wheelbase, height, etc.

 

Are they published anywhere?

Well, actually it doesn't list the 551. I was not sure since it is a mid-engine if it had a different frame.

 

Is it safe to assume the RJ-58 through the 551 mid engines had the same frame, so same dimensions?

The 551 was the first mid engine tractor to use the Uni Drive 2 piece trans so it's the only mid engine that uses a different frame. I think the wheel base is still the same as the others but it will be heavier

Were they the same dimensions as the later front engine round hoods? :scratchead: I haven't found any listed specs on any mid engine tractors.
