What rear end housing has the largest internal dimensions at the differential? 460, 560, 666? Looked for schematics, but haven't found any. Thanks ahead of time.

706 is the largest and lightest of the big frames. Not sure if it's on your list or not.

I didn't se 706 in the guys list the 666 is the lagest of the three but has the same transmission as the 460 the 560 has the better transmission with the bigger bell housing for a bigger clutch 666 has the better rear

We have one 666 that weights 5400 no driver no weights no inner cooler and 3 turbos with 30.5 tires with a 360 block on diesel. The other one weights 5700 same way but has a 400 series motor in it and this one needs to go on a diet....LOL

my chassis is 666 and with me on it weights 5850. I weight 270.. I carry 4 full size batteries. So I would guess you could get to 5400 easy.

Ulmer's alcohol tractor has to weigh around 5200 with him on it and no weights. He had 10-100 lb IH weights on at 6200 lbs and they were all real, I watched him & his father put them on the tractor. He's a 706 rear end & transmission housing.

I have a 400 series diesel in mine. So I believe a boozer could get down to 5200 easy.

Are you running a 300 or 400 series engine? I was hoping to be around 5800 with mine but it is 6800. Tube chassis 466 intercooled 24.5 on aluminum.

400 series motor, no inter cooler. tube frame 30.5. With a little work I could get down another 5600 easy. Just change starter set up so don't need 4 batteries.

I am running an Atlas 11" clutch in both of our 666's with no trouble. It is the same flywheel and clutch Karl uses on the 560's. 3 disc 11".

I have mine weighing 6800# but i know you can get them lighter. I run 7000 &9000 so i kinda built it on the heavy side.

The 544 is the same as the 666 the 504 and utility 460 are the same theres several pulling here llss at 6000 pound one with the 400 series engine and one that's had the 706 bull gears and pinion put in the rear of the 666 what class are you shooting for

Lewis do you think a 300, or 350 rearent and transmission will hold up in the light hot farm class, if you need the rear end and and put a bullet 560 input shaft in? And of course bullet gears.

Big Joe, Id use a 400-560 rear and transmission for LT Hot farm. My opinion the 300-350 will not handle the torque and possibly crack around the bull pinion brake shafts.

706 bull and pinion gears in a 666??? i thought the bull gears from a 706 were alot bigger.. maybe im wrong. are they lighter or a different ratio?

Re: IH Rear end housings September 22, 2017 12:17PM
Richard what is the have to do stuff on a 400-560 rear end like billet cross and different input shaft? And who do you get most of it from, or do you stock and sales the parts.

Re: IH Rear end housings September 23, 2017 07:05AM

Big Joe. I'm not the expert, but what we do for our 6000 LT Hot Farm class is set the transmissions up for 3 gears. It a splitter setup. I usually use heavy gearing, billet input shaft with needle assembly, also run needle assembly In the hog head with pressure lube. Requires some machine work for it all too work. I sell a kit that we use for our class. You'll be fine on weight for a 6000lb class using a 400-560 rear. Good luck with your project

why would a 706 bull and pinion be desired in the 666 rearend

Could you make a m Farmall rear end and transmission work if you made a diff input shaft or is the transmission not strong enough
