Picked up this beauty last week from an old guy who had it garage kept and well maintained over the years. 1998 1320 with 3 cylinder diesel. Picked up a 60 finisher for it, mowing 6 acres. Just wanted to share that Im new to this forum and showing my toy out. Wondered if anyone else has or has had a 1320 and if any tips tricks or advice for it specifically. Anything go bad early on I should be concerned with? or any modifications that were helpful, feel free to pass along. Shes bone stock everything original except new water pump, hoses and belts. Thank you all for taking a look and this forum for all of us being able to help each other out !

Congratulations. Sharp looking little machine. I have a 1510 and a 1620 Hydro along with the bigger ones. Only advice would be use high quality trans/hydraulic fluid when you change it. I use Valvoline VV813 in everything including the Kubotas.
 
I'm wondering what year it really is. According to the agreement when Fiat bought the Ford tractor division, along with the New Holland division that Ford already owned, Fiat was only supposed to be able to use the Ford name up until around 1995 or maybe 1996 at the latest. The fact that yours has a Ford decal on the side of the nose indicates that it's probably from earlier than 1998. It's looks to be in very nice condition regardless of the year.
 
Interesting! Old guy must have put that on himself maybe? It's definitely a 98' from books and papers he gave me (even have original sale receipt). Supposedly the last year they made the 1320 from my research?
 
I think that Ford decal is factory. I believe that NH was allowed to use the Ford name in small script until 2000, although I also recall
that they stopped doing that before the deadline. I saw many tractors built in the late 90s with both NH and Ford decals on them.
 
Okay i'll take a look at what it shows on the papers. Thanks guys for your input and knowledge. It's 4WD too (not 4WA) and has rear diff locker arm at the left heel. No leaks or rattles.
 
We were still getting tractors with Ford on them well into 98, the Japanese imports were even later as many of them had sat in crates both at the depots
and at dealers. I recall there was even talk of making dealers re-badge tractors, but nothing ever became of it
 
Would love to find a bucket for it but i know that could be like finding a needle in a haystack, what do you guys think?
 
Find a Koyker or Bush Hog loader dealer near you. They should be able to set you up with a loader for that tractor. The Koyker web site used to have a tool where you entered what make, model, and year your tractor was and it would come back with the Koyker loader model and mounting kit that you needed, sometimes more than one depending on the tractor and whether you wanted a light duty or heavy duty loader. I'm stumped as to why they got rid of that, but a dealer should be able to look it up.
 
Just talked with Mike from Koyker, a division of Soiux Steel,
he has model 155 which is the loader that fits my tractor. $7K
out the door to my door. He said Ill probably need about a
gallon of hydraulic to replenish what I lost for loader lines. And
tap into the hydraulic case which should just be
capped/plugged currently. I know its just down from right foot
if Im sitting on my 1310. Ill probably post a separate
discussion about getting it set up and any tips for installing.
Mike couldnt tell me exactly how much fluid Ill need to
replenish. Anybody else have any tips on switching things
over to using loader? Thanks a lot Sean and to everyone who
shared some info.
