Replies: Posted By: lowell66dart Date Posted: 01 May 2017 at 7:10am I am fixing odds and ends on one now. One nice thing is the tranny is fully synchronized. The biggest negative most people will say is parts availability. Parts are there you just have to look harder. ------------- AC 6080 (8030,7060,200,175,D-17HC, 6040,160,6140 all gone) Farmall 1066 & 656 Hi-Clear (for sale), White 2-62 High Clearance, JD 4255 Hi Clear. Posted By: Trinity45 Date Posted: 01 May 2017 at 7:14am Thanks, we have a couple of old AC dealers within 50 miles that so far have been able to get me anything I have needed, but the newest we have are a 185 and a 175.  Looking at downsizing from the 185 and want a tractor with a loader.  Would prefer to stay orange but may have to look at others.  The 6140 is about 155 miles away, may drive up this weekend and look at it.

Parts are easy to get for a 175 and 185.  Not so much for a 6140.  Only made for a few years by a company in Japan which is no longer in business.  The only thing Allis about it in my opinion is the color.  Personally, I would stick to those made in West Allis (175/185). ------------- '49 G, '54 WD45, '55 CA, '56 WD45D, '57 WD45, '58 D14, '59 D14, '60 D14, '63 D15D, '66 D15II, '66 D21II, '67 D17IV, '67 D17IVD, '67 190XTD, '73 620, '76 185, '77 175, '84 8030, '85 6080 Posted By: wekracer Date Posted: 01 May 2017 at 9:09pm DSeries4 wrote: Trinity45 wrote: Thanks, we have a couple of old AC dealers within 50 miles that so far have been able to get me anything I have needed, but the newest we have are a 185 and a 175.  Looking at downsizing from the 185 and want a tractor with a loader.  Would prefer to stay orange but may have to look at others.  The 6140 is about 155 miles away, may drive up this weekend and look at it.

X2. Get a loader for a tractor you have. Either one of those will make a great loader tractor
