Ford Tractor Parts from 1939 to the last one that rolled off the assembly line.
The first Ford tractor was the 9N, the first tractor to have both three-point hitch and a rear
Power Take Off. The 9N was first demonstrated in
Dearborn,
Michigan on June 29, 1939. Like the
Farmall, it was designed to be a general-purpose row-crop tractor for use on smaller
farms. An extremely simple, almost crude tractor, the 9N was fitted with the Ferguson system three-point hitch, a three-speed transmission, and featured foot pegs instead of running boards. Ford Tractor Parts. The 9N's relatively tall and wide-spaced front wheel design resulted in somewhat sluggish steering and reduced maneuverability compared to competing machines such as
John Deere's Models A and B, and the
Farmall 'Letter series'. Uniquely, the exhaust was routed underneath the tractor, much like an automobile. All 9N tractors were painted dark grey. This tractor has a rear Power Take Off (PTO) which could be used to drive three point or towed implements. The Ferguson hitch was designed to solve some of the problems found in the earlier
Fordson tractors such as flipping over if the
plow hit an obstruction.
The 9N was revised a number of times, until being re-launched as the 2N in late 1941. The 2N still came in dark grey, but now had added improvements including a larger cooling
fan and a pressurized
radiator. However, the 2N, like the 9N, still had only a 3-speed transmission, a disadvantage compared to the
Farmall A and M. By this time, wartime regulations had imposed manufacturing economies, and some 2Ns can be seen with all-steel wheels and a lack of sleeved engines. Ford Tractor Parts.
Batteries were reserved for the war effort, so the all-steel wheel tractors came with a
magneto
ignition system instead of a battery. After the war the steel wheels and magneto system were replaced with
rubber and batteries. All of the 9N and 2N models featured a front-mounted distributor, which proved difficult to service. It is hard to tell the difference between the 9N and the 2N .
Official production of the 8N tractor began in 1947. Equipped with a 4-speed transmission, this model was destined to become the top-selling individual tractor of all time in North America. The most noticeable differences between the 8N and its predecessors was the inclusion of a 4-speed transmission instead of a 3-speed in the 9N and 2N, and an increase in both PTO and drawbar horsepower. The other big change on the 8N was the addition of a 'Position-control' setting for the hydraulics. This change was made partially to improve flexibility in varying soil conditions, and partially to evade Harry Ferguson's patent on the hydraulic system, since Ferguson's production agreement with Ford had been terminated at the end of the war. Ford Tractor Parts The original automatic draft control on the Ferguson system would allow the depth of the implement to vary based on soil conditions, which did not work well for some implements. The new Position Control setting bypassed the draft control and allowed the implement to remain at a consistent position relative to the position of the Touch Control lever. A continued drawback to this series of tractor, was the safety need for an overrunning clutch at the end of the PTO shaft. This was addressed with the advent of the PTO overrunning coupler.
The 8N was equipped with running boards and was painted gray on the sheet metal and red on the body. It was the first Ford tractor to feature a clutch on the left side and independent brakes on the right. Ford Tractor Parts The wide-spaced front wheel design of the 9N and 2N was retained. In 1950 the 8N design changed to feature a side-mounted distributor, as well a Proof meter (combined speedometer, tacometer, hour meter) located on the lower right portion of the dash.
In 1953 Ford introduced an overhead valve engine in a model dubbed the Golden Jubilee, also known as the Ford NAA. Larger than the 8N, the Golden Jubilee featured live hydraulics. Ford Tractor Parts.
