Tw 35

[thom]

I'd like to settle an argument, I've seen tw 35s on YouTube with front linkage but I've been told it didn't come standard , true or false

Front linkage on a TW 35 would have been an added extra.

Extra. 25 years ago front linkages were very unusual in Great Britain and Ireland, more popular in Europe I think.

Massey weights on this one. Don't think a front linkage would suit this.

No idea, was a local one. Restored, might have been one of the last before the 30's?

As far as I know they did not come with front linkage, there was an article in the Classic tractor (think it was the classic tractor) that said any front linkages were aftermarket

Funny how time moves on, we have forgotten when front links were not standard.

Yes, no powershift gearbox to worry about.

That's true
The powershift gearbox is lovely when it works though
I used to help out a guy who had an 8830 and a TW 35 and I'd pick the 8830 anyday
I have an 8630 on my wish list but I imagine it will stay there

They didnt seem to have problems at that time as they were made by Funk and not Deere

A local Ford dealer had one that had lots of money spent on, it sat in his yard for as long as I can remember, possibly he just wanted far too much for it
