What are the differences between the case 51 series tractors?

[Rimjob]

Just wondering what the differences are between the models in the case 51 series? Ie 5130, 5140 5150?

 

[mushnt grummmble]

20 is 4 cyl
30 is non turbo 6
40 and 50 are turboed

 

[Rob Holmes]

IIRC,

• 5130 - 100hp
• 5140 - 115 hp
• 5150 - 125 hp

 

[C.J]

5120 - 4cyl - 3.9T - 90 Hp
5130 - 6cyl - 5.9 - 100 Hp
5140 - 6cyl - 5.9T - 110 Hp
5150 - 6cyl - 5.9T - 125 Hp

All same back end and running gear ? And would a 5130 take a 5140/50 turbo?

 

[General-Lee]

Don't know if it was standard or not when I first started where I am now we had a 5130 that was turbo'd, even had a turbo decal on the bonnet.

 

[Steevo]

Also Plus/Pro models.

5150 Pro was 132hp.

yes it will , and easy to find the same type engine as they are used in lorries as well ,

 

[C.J]

Apart from the Turbo , the only difference between the 5130 and the 5140 is standard tyre size.(16.9R38 goes up to 18.4R38)

Does the 5150 have a bigger Radiator ? (5130 and 5140 both 4.6 gallons)

Turbocharged 956's had cooling issues.

Some of the bigger fastracs had them in aswell not to mention some American pick ups. Yum yum

Great tractors had a 5140 Plus and a 5130 Pro.

Sold the 5130 a couple of years ago to a young lad from Yorkshire who was going to do a spot of contracting with it, he might even be on TFF?

Especially when they were tweeked to 150 hp

used to pull a kv 5 furrow with a 5150 pro, bloody awful tractor. Did pull well though. Never had such a bad banging tractor on the road.It would never run out of power, just grip!

 

[snowhite]

Yes they can nod on the road at the wrong speed, but with correct tyre pressures and ballast they are fine to sit at 40k.

Why was it awful?

they didnt have autosteer back then

think a 5150 will be my next upgrade, seems a logical step from what ive already got?

Have to agree with you John isn't auto steer brilliant :rofl:

And steady on there a post with you not hating?!

As Iv said before we have a 5130 plus since new straight six with the pump slightly adjusted. For years it ploghed with a dowsdwell 4f and combi drilled. And pulled a large set of opico rollers and did all our loader work whilst that sodding 885 was constantly braking down. Love it to bits it's basic no air con. Synchro gearbox. It has an absolutely cracking engine note while pulling hard. Just puts a smile on my face driving her.
