Case IH 384 Tractor Parts
The Case IH 384 tractor, manufactured from 1977-1981, was a popular utility tractor known for its reliability and versatility. Powered by a robust 46 horsepower diesel engine, the 384 delivered a dependable 41 PTO horsepower. Farmers appreciated its maneuverability and suitability for a wide range of tasks, from mowing to light tillage.
The Case IH 384 was introduced as part of the International Harvester (IH) line before the Case IH merger, and continued production through 1981. It's powered by an International Harvester D-179 3.0L 3-cylinder diesel engine, producing approximately 46 engine horsepower. This engine provides a displacement of 179 cubic inches. The transmission is a gear-type with 8 forward and 2 reverse speeds, offering a good range for various field conditions. The 384 features a 540 RPM independent PTO with a rated 41 PTO horsepower. Its hydraulic system has a capacity of around 8.5 GPM, powering two remote hydraulic remotes. It is equipped with a Category I three-point hitch, providing a lift capacity of approximately 2,200 lbs. This tractor was commonly used for row crop operations, hay production, livestock management, and light tillage work. What distinguishes the 384 from other models in the lineup is its balance of power and size, making it ideal for smaller farms and tasks where a larger tractor would be unwieldy.
