Sooo…… what you are saying is, that we need to own at least one of each. 😊👍🏻

What used to be a high powered tillage tractor is now used as a batwing mowing tractor

Really brings back some memories from when we used to have these old tractor’s. I was pretty young so I didn’t get much seat time, they worked but I glad we don’t have them anymore. My dad was not a fan of the doors or the cabs of either one of those tractors. Needless to say… he doesn’t miss them. 😂

Thank you for posting.

Thanks, I appreciate you sharing

I love that 1086. I'd loveto see as many repairs you can do!

The 86 had unofficial buddy seats on top the gas tank. I grew up riding on one with my grandpa. Not only that, you could curl up on it and take a nap. Or fit 2-3 kids on there. Either way, International had true MFWD, they had a good rotary combine via the mid 70’s also. One hell of a company they were.

When growing up a JD 4020 and the IH 806, 1056 were most common. I remember when the nabors got a 1256 and everyone said that was way too big 😂😂. Farming has really changed. Now you don't even have to know how to drive straight through the field. The tractor does it for the kids today 😂😂.

Enjoyed the video. 2 of my all time favorites since I was a kid. My dad was looking for a bigger tractor, hoping he'd get a 1086, he got a 986 open cab. What a bummer. 😢

The 86 series also had wet brakes and an optional differential lock. The later model 86 series had different shift levers to make entry a bit easier. I have also seen people put a rear opening door which is really slick.

We had both of those tractors at one time. Now I have neither. The 86 series tractors were head and shoulders above the 66 series. Quiet cab, much more comfortable seat. The 1086 was a VERY popular tractor like the JD 4440 of the same period and I think the old 414 and 436 were excellent engines. The cons I have on the 86 series were the doors opening the wrong way, the TA lever didn't operate as smoothly as in the 66, since the cab was moved forward the starter was under the floor in the cab and was very difficult to remove/install. When IH came out with their last series tractors (50 series) I think it was their Hail Mary to save the company. The CaseIH Magnum 70 series were mostly IH and they were going to be the next IH tractor. If they'd held on long enough to get the Magnums out, IH would probably still be in business today because they were the best tractor on the market in the late 80s. Just compare a 1988 7120 to JD or other tractors of that time. A CaseIH salesmen told me that when the Magnums came out they took in a lot of JD tractors on trade for the new Magnums.

We got the white cab on our 1066 but we got a rock box on it. I think ours is a little newer because we have a plastic grill on the front of our 1066. Vary good informative video. I think when we bought our tractor they said that they turned it up to 140. Could be we never dynoed it. Cool stuff

I like the way it was explained, good

The first 66's Int regular cab side windows didn't open. Later models had side opening windows. Liked to have used one with the Hiniker cab with all the window openings available. I prefer the 66 everyday over the 86. 86's positive was a larger fuel tank as standard equipment.

Nice tractor's I like the cabs. Very interesting is it pretty easy to get parts.

When they had the 1066 they put the shifter in the right place then some genius at IH decided to block the door and put it down by the front door that's where you have Engineers that need to get out in the field and drive them so they see their screw-ups boat tractors a good tractors we have one of each at one time now we got to the 86 series and magnums

Both tens were same wheelbase cab was moved forward on 86s & fuel tank was put on rear

With the IH cabs for the 66 series, I believe the diamond and.white deluxe cabs only had the doors and rear window that could be open or closed as the side windows were slanted in the back. The red deluxe cab had square side windows that could be opened. Like you said, without air the Hiniker/Year Around cabs were better. The 86 series built in versus mount on was better for sound protection and air conditioning, but why they changed the direction of the doors opening is beyond me.

Do you have any problems with the shifting in your 1086. My 986 is very sloppy and gets stuck between gears sometimes

👍

Little TLC In the cabs and you have you some nice tractors buddy

The 1086 seat sits ahead further giving it a more of a teeter-totter ride instead of a abrupt bump right over the axle on the engine 1 Breeze out of the valve cover the other breeds out the side of the block 336 I think is the number on the engine that breathes out the side of the valve cover both good Motors

Great Video. I importet a 1066 Blackstripe to Switzerland. I like to drive this Beast.

My dad's cousins had a1566, they always said the 3 speed transmission was a goof, you go from 4 mph to about 7

I hated tripping over the shift levers.

👍🏻

Them's both purdy lookin machines there y'all got - me I'd just wanna race em down a gravel track if I had em both sittin side by side like that

Being 6'4" 270 pounds I fit in and its easier to get in a 66 series cab. Love the 06, 56, 66 series. Take it or leave it on the 86

So what’s wrong with your 1066? Looks like it has been sitting a little while

I will take a 1066 over the 1086 any time my favorite tractor is the international 1486 any day

I never been around 1 of these I've seen them always thought they were a tough lookn tractor

Is that msha tape in the 1086?

I have a 4 Wheel Dr. 1066

I perfer the 86 & it’s looks 👨‍🌾

I much prefer the 86.

1066 has a metal Grill 1086 plastic

A little bit nicer?

It's kinda like Deere did there 4430 to 4440 series

Bad boy

The 66 was a better horse

The engine ones a.8 cylinder the other a 6 cylinder
