I think JED is way off the mark on cracked blocks on AC WD45's. Most people who know AC tractors will not mention cracked blocks as a frequent problem with AC WD45 gas tractors. The biggest concern with these tractors is years of abuse that can cause the tractor to want to jump out of gear. It most offen occurs with third gear but can affect other gears. To check, drive the tractor down hill at a high throttle setting and then close the throttle. This is when the tractor will most likely jump out of gear if it's going to. The Allis is a lighter weight and higher HP tractor than the Farmall. The Allis has independent PTO and hydraulics via the hand clutch but not via the foot clutch. The hydraulics on a WD45 are high pressure and low volume and one way, unless there has been an aux. hydraulic pump added. It is very easy to convert an AC snap coupler system to standard 3 point but you will loose some of the benifits of the Allis systems if you use 3 point equipment for ground tillage. If you can't live with a trip bucket loader (many people THINK they can't), then I suggest you go with the Farmall. I personally don't think the Farmall is near the tractor that the Allis is but if you feel you have to have a 3 point hitch and 2 way hydraulics I doubt you will be able to accept the Allis for the fine tractor that it is.

The TO-20 was relatively the same as the TE-20 except utilized some different casting materials and had a US-style electrical system. The TO-20 was a dead ringer for the Ford 9N and 2N models and they say that Ferguson did this on purpose when the Handshake Agreement wen
