So I bought a tractor from a guy, Told me it was a 3000, but upon my close inspection (asked my phone) realized it is a 4400. Cant find any info on this darn thing...other then data....would like to know a little of their history, if any.....

Anyone have any experience with these things? Like specifically is there anyway to lift the bucket with the tractor not running? Guy says the thing runs great....however that was before he dismantled half of the tractor trying to fix a power steering leak....it don't run now...and the bucket is pointed straight down and dug into the ground......pretty sure this wont be my last "Hiccup"
 
Remove an oil line from the lift cylinders and lift the bucket with a jack or another
loader and block into place. You may also be able to simply pull the lift lever back on the
controls and lift the bucket that way as well. Always block it up cause it will slowly work
its way down again.

Jack it up and put a 4x4 across under the
loader arms above the grill guard,may take
a few wedges etc. I have most of a 4400
outback as a parts machine if your near
Connecticut and need anything, also have
backhoe mounts and a loader for it
 
I am on the opposite coast (California) but maybe we can work something out when I get ready to give this project a go...finishing up restoring an 8N right now....Just need to get the 4400 to my house first....lol
 
Never was a fan of the 4x4 trick.A piece of angel iron in between the cylinder end and loader frame fastened with hose lamps is a safer way.

The 4400 was the "Utility" chassis tractor in the 4000 series made from 1965 through 1974. It shared the same engine and rear axle as the ag chassis 4000 as well as the "Industrial" chassis 4500. All three of them shared a couple of the available transmissions, like the Select-O-Speed and 8 speed manual, but the 4400 and 4500 also had a manual reversing transmission available as well as a power reversing torque converter transmission. The 4000 ag chassis had a 3 piece adjustable width front axle, while the 4400 had a single piece non-adjustable front axle that was a bit heavier duty than the adjustable axle on the ag chassis model, and the 4500 had an even heavier duty 1 piece front axle.
 
I have been told the 4400 was much heavier
ring gear and such than standard 4000, the
whole rear would bolt up but not many
internal parts swap over
 
Parts site shows the same part number for ring and pinion gear set for 4000, 4400 and 4500. Only different part numbers are one for the the S-O-S trans because that trans required a different ratio in the ring and pinion, and one part number for all of the non-S-O-S with a handbrake and one part number for non-S-O-S without a handbrake.
 
Thank you, I have been b.s.ed then into
believing that over the years, opens up
some possibilities for the parts I have
outback.
 
I don't, the 4400 had a separate seat for
backhoe and tractor, odd since my neighbors
4500 has the flip over seat
 
The 4400 was designated as a "Utility" tractor and was designed to be a loader tractor with the backhoe available as an optional add-on, while the 4500 was designated as an "Industrial" tractor and was designed from the ground up to be a TLB.
 
Should be able to find an aftermarket seat
to fit, do away with the pain in the bum
flip over seat and mount a seat for the
backhoe that just folds up out of the way
of the normal tractor seat
