I can answer about Stage I and Stage II Farmall H and Farmall M tractors. (if that is not your topic, ignore this) In 1953 Farmall tractor design was in transition to modern practices. The use of existing inventory and good economic practice meant that the changeover to Live Hydraulics (one of the things) happened in mid 53.
