How much, if any, would a shuttle shift ad to the value of a tractor. Also,is there any production numbers available?

I'm not sure if it adds any value. That will depend on what you are going to use the tractor for. A Shuttle is simply an addition of a gear to reverse the low side of the power director. Great for loader work. The downside is that you now only have 4 forward or reverse gears with no shift and the PTO turns at about 780 rpm.  It's your call.  I have both. There are no production records that I have seen. Could be dealer added. Had two neighbours change their D-15 and D-14 loader tractors from PD to shuttle 40 years ago. One neighbour still has his.

Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed

my opinion only but can't see it adding any value.....only a loader tractor would want it and how big is that demand? You got all them dairies around ya but doubt there's any looking for a D17 loader tractor.

Was talking to a guy the other day who said he had 2 , 170s with shuttle. Said he was going to restore them and wondered if they would be worth more. Got me thinking and I thought I,d ask the "experts " here..
