The 9/1070 tractors are the same except the engines. 401cu.in. 970 and 451 in 1070. They both have 540/1000RPM PTOs the 8spd is not a syncro, and can be a bit mean to shift. The PS tranny is a 4spt with 3 on-the go shifts, plus a shuttle reverse. Offering 12 speeds forward, and 3 reverses (4th reverse locked out on newer tractors) The 970 was extreamly good on fuel, and has plenty of weight and power to handle a round baler even on hills. Power shift problems were minimal, if proper maintainance was done on the tranny.
