Just wondering the pros and cons of having a Ford 9N with 24 volt set up instead of 6 or 12.
This is what the tractor I am looking to buy has.
It is my first tractor and I have not found much talk on the internet about this subject. The 9N is in good shape with a loader and mower for $3500. This is the best I've found so far in SE Wisconsin area.
Thanks for your input!!!
Tom

That fella selling you a 24V Ford converted it to 24 volts to run his moonshine operation near Loose Tooth, Oklahoma. Reason being that the Feds in that area have a sensitive sound pickup receiver that zero's in on any excessive noise. Those electric stills are as quiet as a churchmouse and you can operate them wherever and whenever you want, even Sunday morning, without anyone even raising an eyebrow. Unless you're in the same business, offer him $2000 and tell him to keep the extra batteries.

For $3500, I'd have something with live hydraulics. In fact,for that money, I'd bet I could find power steering, too. 9N steering won't stand up to loader use. 8N's were better, but not much. If I had to settle for an N, it would be an 8N (4 speed, position control) and I wouldn't pay more than $2500 for it. I am in eastern NY; stuff isn't cheap here, either.

Never saw or heard of a 24V 'N'. If in fact this one is, just more proof it is a morphodite and overpriced.

Would likey redline the engine on rpms using some HD batteries putting 24V on a 6v starter. Would have to wait for it to slow to idle speed after starting.
