Paul: Don't take me wrong, re-read my post. The early disc brakes were not great I agree, Hs, SHs and 300s were very average. My 560 was much better, and 656 better still. I expect my 1066 was much the same as your son's 3688. We had to start somewhere, those tractors were getting larger even in the late 50s.

I farmed mainly with IH tractors. I always thought they could have developed and improved brakes, TA, IPTO and hitches much faster than they did. They might have put some of the money into R&D on those things rather than the millions they spent on that turbine tractor in 59. Last time I checked, no one is producing a turbine tractor close to 50 years later. I haven't any farmers screaming for the development of turbine tractors.
