In Reply to: Specific M muffler posted by Don Livingston on March 03, 2009 at 06:38:51:
Actually the later (about 1947 up) straight M's came with a muffler that had an outlet pipe somewhat smaller than the inlet pipe. They were proportionately smaller than the H type in every dimension except for the inlet pipe. The outlet pipe wasn't nearly as small as the H's but it was noticeably smaller than the inlet. The mufflers with the large outlet pipes started coming out on the new Super M's and since then all the replacement mufflers for M's came that way too as I recall. The '48 W-6 we got in 1950 still had it's original muffler and it was one of the smaller outlet pipe type. I remember having to saw about 4 inches of it off to get it into the garage with the "sawed off muffler '50 H. If anyone has one of the old H, M, and MD sales brochures from about 1950, they show some great pictures of M types with this small outlet muffler along with some pictures of the early model H and M tractors with the older stubby outlet pipe mufflers. I remember a lot of the older styled Farmalls "back when" with the stubby mufflers, that's what my uncle's '41 H had when I first started driving it in 1943..
