That's a WD-45 engine and final drive. That's probably a WD transmission, I have been told that the shift levers are Not interchangeable. You have a Snap Coupler, which was standard on the WD-45, but optional on the WD. I don't know if there is any way to find out what parts that tractor started with, but it looks llike a mixture of WD and WD-45 parts now. I'd call it a WD-45, because the motor is the most important difference.
I always thought that the frame extending beyond the radiator was wd45, the diesel model was a 6cyl. and it pushed the radiator out to the end of the frame.
Do you know if the gears in the transmission slide or if it uses the dog clutches. Sliding gear would be WD. Ive got a book that talks about later WDs did get the constant mesh transmission but they have a curve shifter, but not the other way around.
One reference I have says the constant-mesh transmission started at serial 127007 in 1952. Which is near the end of the WD range. As production ended in 1953 with serial 146606.
you need ac experts to help so many ways to change parts i have wd and wd45 will look see if other than shift lever i notice any difference i know 45 had 1/2 longer stroke good luvk

I don't know about the WD, but a WD 45 with a good engine will pull an AC 3-14" mounted mouldboard plow!

allis did not get the cut over on parts perfectly, the big item was the engine
The engine is a 45, run the numbers and see what the chassis is
Its a wd. No hydraulic outlet on the back.
wd will have 2 clutch disc in hand clutch 45 will have 3
This one had three.
It's a wd45. My uncle had the same tractor.
