KW: While everyone is busy arguing with Allan, who by the way is wrong, I will attempt to the best of my knowledge tell you the differences. Basic configuration is much the same. Rear chassis of 656 is basically a decendant of M, SM, 400, 450 and 560, with items like TA, IPTO, Hydrostatic steering, Draft Controlled 3 point hitch added. This was an evolution as some of these items or versions of them were on the earlier tractors. The rear chassis of 706 is much heavier with dualrange 8 speed plus TA, two shaft PTO 540 and 1000. Same chassis as 7 through 14 in 06, 56 and 66 series. The 656 is 96" wheelbase and 706 is 104" They use the same 282 diesel. A few 706 near end of production had the German engine. 656 PTO 540 = 1800 engine 706 PTO 540 = 2300 engine. The wide front is basically the same. Both tractors have Cat II - 3 point hitch usually with 1 or 2 auxillery valves. Some of both models were equiped with fast hitch. I'm guessing here but shipping weights 656 = 6300 and 706 = 7200. TA on 656 will free wheel in low while the 706 will not. 656 has mechanical dry disc brakes, 706 has wet power disc brakes.
