Ford New Holland 4121 Tractor Parts

The Ford New Holland 4121 was manufactured during the early to mid 1980s as part of Ford's strategy to offer a range of tractors catering to different farm sizes and needs. The 4121 typically features a Shibaura diesel engine, producing around 52 to 57 horsepower. Engine displacement is approximately 179 cubic inches (2.9 liters). These tractors were primarily offered with a mechanical gear transmission, typically an 8-speed forward and 2-speed reverse gearbox, providing a good range of speeds for various field operations. The rear PTO delivers around 45-50 horsepower, usually at the standard 540 RPM. Hydraulic capacity is around 8-10 gallons per minute, adequate for operating implements like loaders and disc harrows. The 3-point hitch is typically a Category I or II, depending on the configuration, with a lift capacity around 2500-3000 lbs. Common farming applications for the 4121 include hay baling, light tillage, row crop work, and livestock feeding operations. Compared to larger Ford models, the 4121 is more compact and fuel-efficient, making it ideal for smaller farms or operations requiring maneuverability.
