E27N Weight

[BarryT]

Hi,

I cannot find the answer on the board so can anyone tell me the weight of a standard E27N, I would immagine it to be heavier than the E1A Major which I believe to be 2.25ton.

Regards,

Barry

Fordson E27N should be around 1 3/4 tons. Though my mate rekions there more 2ton like the E1A Major.

I did run my E27n up on the scales for the tractor pull at the local fair some 10 or 12 years ago. IIRC she was just over two tons.

I don't run wet wheels, but do have the two pair of iron weights fitted.

Not much or her has rusted away since
