A very nice conversion and a usable machine.

The leyland is in immaculate condition, i used to drive a leyland 2100 two wheel drive

[@benaubrey6651]

This has a 6/95 engine from a lorry so revs higher. It would probably exceed 100 hp on the lorry pump at that. Been like it for over 20 years now and is used on their farm daily

Hi Ben, thanks for the extra info, it was a great day. many thanks and best regards Dave

[@alanchatfield4271]

6/98?

[@ColtonLloyd]

Nice tractor

[@austinmetro6317]

Rare 😊

[@davidrobertson376]

Leyland powered John Deere. At last someone has worked it out

[@NoelPacheco-lx8cl]

Excelente tractor

[@donvoll2580]

Good day Dave . Boy with price of fuel the way it is, every bigger tractor should be turboed . Thanks

[@IncredibleClassicTractors]

Hi Don you could be right, I think back then turbos were expensive and not so reliable. I`m told this is bigger than what I though too. hope you are keeping well . Dave

[@garethdavies3220]

I'd like to know more about this conversion , are there any photos or articles online or in any magazines about this tractor or similar conversions ? Would be very interesting . Thanks for the video.

[@arabmad]

i have a Leyland synchro 472 and has started jumping out of high range, how big a job is it to fix

[@landyandy7]

Thats had a 6 cyl conversion, looks like the leyland 6-98 engine so your HP is out its most probably the 85HP version although it could be 100HP

[@donvoll2580]

Good day from Ontario Canada Why didn't Leyland do better? This looks like any Ford tractor out there. The Nuffields done well in middle 60's to possibly lat 70's Thanks

[@IncredibleClassicTractors]

Hi Andy, thanks again for another correction. its much appreciated. I`m glad you know what you are talking about. best regards Dave

[@alanchatfield4271]

Look people it's just the layland 285/2100 engine, it not government science

[@alanchatfield4271]

My god he could easily go up 2 gears

[@johnearle6667]

Scrap , they had poor breaks and soft clutch

[@richardparrott1195]

You are right,, my old boss uesd to say the clutch was made of wogg shit and cardboard 🤣😂 i have split plenty of 70 tractors ,, clutch jobs were half day jobs

[@bigteddy66]

Just like your spelling, breaks, nearly fell of my chair.
