Alright, so, I have been trying to cheaply round up parts to fix this 1940 JD A I have, and I ended up buying two more JD A's to do just that, BUT I need to know what to pick!
My good A is:
1940, Hand Start, 4 Spd, Stamped Steel Rear Wheels.
The A I have at home that I bought is:
1942, Hand Start, 6 Spd, Cast Rear Wheels.
The A I have to get still is:
194-, Hand Start, 6 Spd, 1 stamped, 1 cut off flat spoke.
I am planning on stuffing all 3 together to get what I want for a good working, usable tractor, not restoration.
Here is the main question, which hydraulic system do I want?
The 1940 has the on with the pedals, Up and Down.
The 1942 has a lever that come out the right side, and it is like my dads GM, it also has two Aux. Ports, for a cylinder.
Then the 194- has no hydraulics, just PTO. Are these "rare"??
I think that I want the system on the 1942 so that I can run remotes, BUT, how does it work? Am I still just going to have up and down, or will it be adjustable, like "up just a little bit"?
Next question is transmission. I am pretty sure that I want one of the 6 speeds right? More gears is always better, and it gives me a quick road gear to get to where I am going!?
I think that I am going to end up putting my 1940 stuff onto the 1942 rear end, because it already has the hydraulic unit AND the 6 speed, but I am looking for opinions?!?! Plus it has cast wheels for weight, so I won't need fluid, better than stamped right?

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Hydraulics - The Basics - by Curtis Von Fange. Hydraulics was one of the greatest inventions for helping man compound the work he can do. It’s amazing how a little floor jack can lift tons and tons of weight with just the flick of a handle. What’s even more amazing is that all the principals of hydraulic theory can be wrapped up in such a small package. This same package applies to any hydraulic system from the largest bulldozer to the oldest and smallest tractor. This short series will take a look at the basic layout of a simple hydraul
