Kinze power products ENERGY Miscellaneous 14-5-15 Kinze Manufacturing, Williamsburg, Iowa, is doing a booming business putting Cummins engines in Deere 4-WD tractors.
"Since the original FARM SHOW report we've repowered 36 tractors from all over the country including some from as far away as Texas and Florida," say Jim Spaid, head Kinze mechanic in the company's new repower division. Kinze repowers Deere
8630, 8640 and 8650 tractors with Cummins 855 diesels. Because the original Deere engine was an integral part of the tractor frame, the company had to build a subframe around and beneath the engine to the front of the engine where it fastens to the front axle. The engine also had to be matched up to the Deere driveline, and a number of other components had to be specially adapted to the new engine, or repositioned.
All conversions are performed at the Kinze facility in Iowa.
