Ji case d info please

jicaseman89 · Jan 16, 2017

I called on what was to be a model d case the guy said its a 1955 standard model with love power and 3 point.
I am guessing its a DC row non adjustable front end
I haven't gone to look at it yet and he couldn't say if it had a eagle hitch or if its cobbled up

If it is a DC live power eagle hitch it will be coming home with me if it isn't it might still follow me home

My question is this big enough for my bearcat grinder mixer?
My 51 sc will grind but it works the p!$$ out of it sc is rated 28-30 on the Pulley a DC is 33-37
Only few more pony's.
Some of you more then likely will know.
Thanks loren

Most likely it is a DC-4. Case did make the standard with eagle
hitch and live power. The size of the rear tires would tell if it
is a D or DC-4.

Depends some on what you are grinding. Shelled corn grinds easily. I run a Case grinder for shelled corn with the VAC. Use to grind oats and corn with a
630...worked the heck out of it grinding oats.

OK well thanks for the info guys.
Steve I wish I had a case grinder like the one back by your combine shed I wish I could a pulled it home when I left your place that day I was down there.
Thanks loren

Loren,

First of all, it can't be a 1955 model. No D series were made in 1955. It could be either a D or DC4, either model could come with live power and/or hydraulics/Eagle Hitch. A DC4 has 38" rear tires and a D has 26" rear tires. If this tractor is a very late model, or has been rebuilt, it will have 4" aluminum pistons and will be a significant up grade from your SC. It will have 40 plus HP and a longer stroke for far more torque than an SC. I hope it is in decent shape and you can bring it home. Don

The DC has 100 more cubic inches than the SC. So if the SC can run it, then DC should easily run it.

Hey Tom Railsback this sound familar??

if a Sc will pull the grinder I would bet that my 49 VAC will run it better ,. as for the abilty of the DC ? Shux !... hook 2 of those bearcats together and the dc will run them both !,.. !full bore!

wouldn't be surprised at that. But be careful. I took cogs off the pto gears on a vac running a pto generator.

I have had experience with the D series with live power and without live power. My 49 D ran a PTO feed grinder for many years--a perfect match for this stationary application. For grain augers, my 49 without live power got the nod.

My 52s with live power needed clutch maintenance and when starting loads with significant inertia, I did not like the chatter during engagement--even at low engine speed. Some live power Ds would rotate the pto shaft when not being used i.e. in neutral. I refused to connect the pto drive with the engine running. Live power has only one pto disconnect. Gripping a U-joint to hook it up seemed dangerous.

The 49 D pto had a double disconnect feature--the main hand clutch and the mechanical engage lever. I felt safe gripping the U joint to hook up a PTO with the engine running.

For stationary applications, having the freedom to stand on the ground and actuate the smooth, durable, low maintenance hand clutch was a dream. That clutch would start any load under any condition.
