International 4 wheel drives (4166)


The 4166 was the 3 tractor in the IH 4 wheel drive line. This style was released in 1971 and ran too 1977 when it was replaced with the 4186. This tractor had 150 hp enough to pull a 12 bottom plow. This tractor was proven a high speed, hard pull tillage tractor. This tractor had 4 wheel drive and 4 wheel steer. 4 wheel steer is when the tractor doesn't bend in the middle the tires turn to turn the tractor. When not pulling a load 2/3 of the weight is over the front wheels when you are pulling a load the weight moves over the back wheels to boost traction. The 4166 had an insulated cab. With air conditioning and heater you will be comfortable an the insulated cab will keep the temperature. The cab also had a positive air pressure ventilation system to keep the dust out. This tractor was later replaced by the 4186 which was the last of the 4 wheel steer tractors.
