hi, does anyone know anything about a D17 industrial w/loader and a heavy attachment called a "sledgehammer" mounted on the rear of the trator, I may have the wrong name for this hammer, its what the guy told us, he said it was used to break up roadways

I saw that on CL, that tractor doesnt resemble a D-17 too much aside from the fenders. The hood panels and grill cowling look different. Were they different for an industrial, or was this tractor modified? Or am i just seeing things?

The tractor shown on the link is not a D-17 but an I-60 / I-600 which utilizes a D-15 power train. The I-60/I-600's did utilize the drop hammer as an attachment. That had to be very hard on the tractor.

It's an I-60 or I-600 diesel (same if you don't get the backhoe). I have literature on the drop hammer but have never seen one.

I 400 I40 WAS A D10-12 POWER UNIT

To be a little more accurate, I-40 and I-400 were based on a D-10 series III. The only difference is the I-40 has 5 bolt front wheels and the I-400 has 6 bolt wheels. The big difference was with the backhoes.

Per AC literature, also please note that some Industrial machines were optioned out by group. So tires, rims, attachments, paint, transmission and engine choices could be selected by the purchaser. Normally, on tractors equipped with a loader or hoe the rim sizes had a wider cross section to accomodate a wider tire thus carrying the dead load better than say a conventional farm tire from the same application.

Because of the way the machines could be optioned and the passage of time there are number of machines out there that have a fair amount of variability to them which makes things kind of interesting.
