Anyone that knows a fair amount about old tractors will know to tell anybody in conversation that the SOS was no good. Any one who really knows their old Fords will tell you to stay away from the first generation SOS but that the second generation that came out for 1964 is a great transmission.

They built them for a number of years and there are still lots and lots still out there working every day.
