TR86 parts and accessories

The Ford New Holland TR86 combine, produced from the early 1980s through the early 1990s, was a popular choice for farmers seeking a reliable and efficient grain harvesting solution. With engine horsepower ranging around 215 HP and header widths up to 30 feet, the TR86 offered substantial harvesting capacity. Its twin rotor design provided excellent grain separation, contributing to its widespread adoption and a reputation for high throughput.

The Ford New Holland TR86 combine harvester was a key model in the transition towards rotary threshing technology. Production spanned from the early 1980s into the early 1990s. It featured a Ford 6.6L inline 6-cylinder diesel engine, producing approximately 215 horsepower (actual HP could vary slightly). The TR86 utilized a twin-rotor threshing and separating system, providing improved grain separation compared to conventional cylinder combines. Its grain tank capacity was around 235 bushels, and the unloading auger could discharge grain at a rate of approximately 80 bushels per minute. Available header widths ranged from 13 to 30 feet, accommodating various field sizes and crop types. Chopper and spreader options were available for residue management. The cab offered basic operator comfort and controls for adjusting harvesting parameters. The TR86 excelled in harvesting a variety of crops, including wheat, soybeans, and corn, due to its efficient separation and throughput capabilities.
