Did anyone make a high low range for a Ferguson TO 30? If so, does anyone have one they'd like to sell? located in CT.

The Perkins P3(TA) conversion develops 34BHP at 2000 RPM, significantly more than the normal Ferguson 20 tractor. The marketing opportunity for the Perkins P3 conversion kit lay in the fact that the Standard motor Co. manufactured diesel engine supplied by Ferguson, being about 1 inch longer could not readily be fitted to existing TE 20 petrol or TVO (Kerosene) tractors. Frank Perkins used the Perkins P3 conversion kit to convince Harry Ferguson that the Perkins 3 cylinder diesel engine was suitable for future Ferguson tractor.

The tractor gearbox is fitted with an additional Howard high-low range gearbox, providing a total of 8 forward and two reverse gear ratios. The Howard high-low gearbox provides approximately 4:1 reduction provided by rather crude straight cut gears. It can be difficult to find a unit that has not been wrecked by trying to drive with the gears not correctly engaged. This unit however needed little attention and was simply cleaned and reinstalled. Howard made available the high-low range gearbox to allow for relatively low ground speeds with high P.T.O. speed required by their rotavators and slashers.
