Good general advise from all so far - for what my opinion is worth. :) I have a 300 IHC row crop tractor - it's the mid-50's version of an H, it has 36 hp, 8 forward speeds with the TA, independent pto. (That TA allows me to shift hi/lo in each gear without clutching - _very_ handy for baling...) It has pulled the 270 NH baler and a hayrack of 120 bales on my hilly ground (the last few years a bale basket) for about 35-40 years now. Dad & now I make 2000 - 6000 bales a year. This is a lower volume baler, but this combo has preformed very well, and I plan to keep using them. I just put $1500 into rebuilding the tractor. Lots of good slightly different directions from the others. I have an Ollie Super 77, that works good for baling too. As does the Ford 960 I have. I love the tranny options on the 300 for baling.... --->Paul
