My 8N ford has been converted to 12 volts. How large a winch did you use from Harbor Freight? I was thinking about the 3000 lb winch or the 2000 lb winch. Another tractor I have is a 1984 John Deere 850. It has a solid drawbar plus the 3 point. Several people from the forum have mentioned that it is hazardous to mount a winch on the 3 point of an 8N due to the possibility of turning the tractor over. Have given thought to mounting the winch on my farmall cub which is small but has the ability to move in tight places.
Another disadvantage of the 8N ford and the farmall cub is their high gearing. The 8N is probably one of my favorite tractors. The JD 850 has a 4 speed main and a reduction gear which is great for moving slowly.
