Ford New Holland 9600 Tractor Parts

The Ford 9600 tractor was introduced in 1973 as part of the updated Hundred Series line, replacing earlier models and offering improved performance and comfort. Production continued until 1976. Under the hood, the 9600 features a Ford 401 cubic inch (6.6L) inline 6-cylinder diesel engine, delivering approximately 129 horsepower and 114 PTO horsepower. This engine provided a significant power boost compared to previous models, making it well-suited for heavy tillage and row crop applications. The 9600 came standard with a manual transmission offering 8 forward and 2 reverse speeds, providing adequate gear selection for various field conditions. It features a 540 RPM PTO, allowing for efficient operation of implements like mowers, balers, and sprayers. The hydraulic system offered a flow rate of around 20 gallons per minute, providing the necessary power for implements and attachments. Equipped with a Category II 3-point hitch, the 9600 could handle a variety of implements. The tractor was commonly used for plowing, disking, planting, and other tasks associated with row crop farming. Its power and reliability also made it suitable for hay production and livestock operations. What distinguishes the 9600 from other models in the Ford line is its larger engine and higher horsepower rating, making it a powerful choice for farmers needing extra muscle for demanding tasks.
