I remember when the 2870 came out. Dad was working for Case in North battleford at the time and they unveiled/demoed it at Kindersley. I cannot remember the width of the cultivator they were pulling with it but it was huge. That tractor pulled it around and they could not lug it enough to make it smoke. I still have a 2870 belt buckle from that day.
Good looking and running old case. Im located in southwestern ontario and we have been having lots of rain delays also getring the crops in. I have a good friend farming by kamsask and they are dealing with rain delays also.
I agree . I ran a 2470 and own a 1070 still.. they are slow bandits in the dirt. Pulling monsters though. The powershift can be jumpy.. everything is hydro . Sucks sometimes. I fought with them. You get pressures right and they shift smooth . I got 6000 hrs on our 1971 1070. It's a dream to operate
Great video and nice tractor! I was checking out some of your other videos and seen we upgraded from the same drill to the same one you got now haha, we had a 40 foot 5700 and 3225 tank and upgraded to a 47 foot 5710 with a 5350 tank, should be a nice upgrade! Hope everything continues to go well for you!
Great Video, When I was a boy, (i'm 67 tomorrow) I had booklets with this tractors predecessors in them model numbers I remember are 1470, thanks for sharing
I remember one season back in either’81 or ‘82 dad rented a 2870 for spring seeding. On our farm the biggest tractor was a JD 5010 so that Case 2870 was just incredible, crazy power too, pulled a 24’ deep tiller like it was nothing. Good luck with seeding this year, must be the extra carbon tax we’re all paying causing the cool wet weather 🙄
Always great to see a Traction King.
Nice looking 2870 case tractor
Good luck seeding your 2024 crops
Neighbor has a 4890, it's a brute, starts like no other, below zero pops off like 70 degrees!!

Great video. I've been on the fence about fixing my 4690, but this video kind of inspired me.

Great video, really enjoyed it. Nice seeing that older iron working and doing well. Good luck with your seeding .
Always park tractor with front wheels turned, if it looses fuel prime, you can get to primer pump. Don't ask how I know!!!
Great looking tractor best wishes from the uk
Ran a 2670 for a guy a couple years. Good tough tractors. Like the crab steering for terrace work.
Great video
