 Topic: Need help with serial number
Posted: 13 Feb 2012 at 4:04pm |

Hi guys just looked at a tractor it has wd45 decals and a curved shifter, but the serial number is 156638 so what is it a wd45 or a wd. Thanks the serial number charts are confusing me.

The WD started at 7 in 1948 and stopped at 146606 in 1953. The WD45 starts at 146607 in 1953 and goes to 236958 in 1957. Yours is a 1953 WD45.

norms book says 45 started in 1953 at 146,607 and went to 160,385
so it is a 53 WD45

and WD started at serial WD127XXX in 1953 with the curved shifter - often referred to as the 45 transmission. Gary

I have even seen one without a S.N. I was told that the rear end got out of the factory with a crack in it. So at the dealership, it was changed out with a new one under warranty and it was never stamped.
