Hello, Oliver Folks! I just got home awhile ago, and read all of the interesting posts on the 1950-T. I saw a nice one today at Bodner Implement in Staunton, IL. We had two of them for many years: a 2WD and a 4WD. The 2WD was sold at our farm auction for $4500 in April of 1998. We still have the 4WD. It is Serial Number 218372-653; Model Number 499-82019. I know it is one of the last 100 of the 50 Series tractors. It is an awesome machine! Repowered with a turbo Cummins in April of 1992. We took delivery of it in November of 1969: brand new. I have a hankering to possibly sell the Cummins and the "tub" someday...and "restore" it with a VRD310S. Might be hard to find one! Might have to get a 1955 engine. Our 4WD actually has a '55 Series rearend casting, from the factory. It has a casting boss for mounting a Vickers closed-center hydraulic pump. In my book...we have the "last" 1950-T built...or darned close to it! Single air cleaner, so on and so forth. Enjoy your '50-T! They are quite a tractor!

What are the differences between the 1950-T and 1955 engines? I'd really like to know. Is the Waukesha casting number different also? My 1750 is one of those built in 1968 with the 1950-T crankcase. We went ahead and plumbed the oil cooler with all factory pieces. Fun to watch guys look under the hood for a turbo at a show. If John S. reads this he can explain it as he knows about them.

In simple terms a problem was found with the blocks which made them unsuitable for the turbocharged engine but did not cause a problem with the naturally aspirated engines. So since the money was invested, they used them up in the 1750 tractor. Companies do it,due to many reasons. Are you a G-M man? We had a couple of cranks that took the 9 under bearings, you will never find new ones but G-M had them made to save a bunch of cranks. I can remember a parts bulletin on the 2255 transmissions that used different bearings as the correct ones were not available at that ime. Later on if you tore one down you were to replace them with the correct bearings. Need a horse dwawn cultivator? J
