Glenn, I just wanted to make an additional comment on tractor weight. The advertised shipping weight of the International 350 Utility gasoline was 4178 lbs. The actual weight of the International 350 Utility gasoline as received for testing at Nebraska was 4265 lbs which is very close to advertised. They test with and without ballast. The weight of the International 350 gasoline as testd with ballast was 6115 lbs. When you go to adding both liquid and cast iron to a tractor it is easy to add 2000 lbs or more to the original weight. The Farmall 350 gasoline as received at Nebraska weighed 5175 vs an advertised weight of 4715 because of some various options. For the ballasted test the Farmall 350 weighed 8339 lbs showing they added more than 3000 lbs of ballast for the test. The point is, you cannot ever go buy just the advertised shipping weight.
