Hello out there, I know it must be a repeated subject, but I am trying to get to the bottom of my 1941 70 Row Crop Gearing. It has 4 speeds at the moment as I would like to go to some road runs I am looking to
see if it definitely will have a 5th and 6th gear but blocked off as it only does about 6mph at the moment, which is ok for Tractor days on fields but not on a road trying to keep up with others. Some articles
say that somewhere only fitted with a 4-speed box, others say that 5 and 6 are blanked off, if so where should I look to see if there is anything stopping it getting into the top two gears. I have had the
plate off where the gear lever goes down into, and seen the two rods that go forward through the casing into the next chamber, that is covered by the Drive belt pully engage lever and Power Lift lever but I
have not looked under that. Any help welcomed.
Regards
Richard

I will have to find a Tractor run for geriatric tractors that don?t go faster than 6mph
