I'm the proud owner of a 70d, recently bought at auction, and am having no luck in finding anything about this tractor. Anyone?? I think it's a heck of a nice rig but information seems impossible to find.

Be sure to follow the operator's manual on the starting procedure on the 70. The pony start was good if used right. After starting the big engine shut off the fuel to the starting motor. The had a tendency to leak fuel into the cylinders. Pony motors are expensive to overhaul but again shouldn['t need it if treated right. Tghis was one of the best tractors for fuel economy in Nebraska tests. Have fun with it

Doug,
Can you list what information you want? H.P., year built, ect. There are 70 owners on here that can answer any question you have. Just need to know the question.

Primarily I'm looking for manuals, specifications, and any other information that is specific to the 70d. Like I said, I'm having a helluva time getting anything on this beast. Of those that own one, I'm wondering if there are any oddoties I should look or watch for, I'm new to this pony start and find it pleasantly different...but think there has to be a reason info. is so scarce.

Doug:

Information is not scarce, you just need to know where to look for it.

Your 70D used Nebraska test number 528, the Owners manual is OMR2032, the Tech manual or service manual is SM2017, and the parts catalog is PC445.

The 70 Diesels were only made in the 1955 and 1956 model years, the first one, sn 7017500, being built on Sept 14, 1954 and the last one , sn 7043757, on July 20, 1956. There were 14,397 made.

Specifications:
weight:6510#
Displacement:376cid
HP:51.5@1125rpm
Rear tires:13x38
Transmission:6f, 1r
Length:137"
Height to radiator:65.56"
width:86.62"

You have a wonderful "beast" and I hope you enjoy it.

Model 70 was Made from 1953-1956
S/N 1953 7000001
1954 7005692
1955 7017501
1956 7034950

Manuals from John Deere
Owners omr2032
tech sm2017
parts pc445

Make sure Flywheel is tight, and watch the oil, for these beast have 3 main bearings on the crank, and the center one is almost impossible to find. Service the pony motor regularly. Russ
