Finished A Lo Boy

Buddy Woodson · Nov 20, 2014

Finally got the A Lo-Boy finished. It's 8" lower and 8" shorter than production A 's. It will be shown with the Double and Triple A's that I built over the last 2 years. Next one out will be my version of a Shop Mule. A special thanks to Gene Bender for sharing his knowledge on A's and some good parts!!

Did they make a Farmall M lowboy also?

VERY nice W2.
Kudos to you and Gene.

Did you rig up a draw bar for it?

Buddy Woodson · Nov 21, 2014

Drawbar photo. To answer the other question, a lowered M from the factory would be a W6, a lowered H would be a W4. IH never built a lowered A so I custom built this one. I could call it a W2, but since I am working on the A series, I chose to call it an A Lo-Boy. If you notice on the drawbar photo, I also put the battery under the seat on a all my custom tractors. I use a M battery box which leaves me room to install a battery disconnect switch alongside a 12 volt group 26 battery. Battery is much easier to access by spply flipping up the seat. I use the small Hitichie alternator and paint it red to blend in with the chassis. I know the Battery box location an alternator are not original, but I've already built a non original tractor anyway and it's just my preference.

Can I ask how you lowered the rear end? Rotated the final drives?
