Hi, they were a good 40 to 75 HP IH utility tractor. Made from early 1970 to 1997, Diesel engine built in Neuss Germany, everything else built in Doncaster UK. The same rear assembly was used in all models, so a 40 HP 484 had the same trans/diff as a 70 HP 884. Many small dairy farms in eastern Canada had them as their main tractor or as a loader tractor. There were also some industrial models and row crop models but the row crop models were rare in North America. The ones delivered to Canada were completely assembled in Doncaster UK and the ones delivered to USA were in crates and were assembled in Louisville. The USA ones are different as they have Delco electrical systems, sometimes different front axles and power steering system.
Weaknesses, if Lucas electric system if Doncaster build unit, parking brake being left engaged and tractor driven chewing up parking brake band in the range transmission and the bits getting into hydraulic system. The German Diesel will run for many years if regular maintenance is performed.

Re 484 with IH 2355 or like quick attach loader, not recommended if you are using tractor to move large round or square bales because of the swept back front axle. The 684 would make a better loader tractor, it has a heavier straight front axle and could have a "Quick Reverse" option and a 17 GPM hydraulic pump.

My two cents

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
