Can't seem to find how much a F-12 weighs. Any help would be appreciated.

Brent, It would help to know what year it is and if it has metal wheels or is the rubber tired tractor.

John,
That might help. It's a 1939 on rubber. It's also a tricycle.

according to the book I have the basic modle would have weighed 2700, but it doesn't specify steel or rubber.

According to Guy Fay's IH Tractor Data Book, a standard F-12 weighed 2,700 lbs. Add-ons and attachments/options would alter this weight.

I would check the width on the F-12. I have an F-20 and the back tires are 7' wide. Larry

I would take the book number lightly. H's were supposed to be 3700lbs. and I weighed mine on the scales at 5500lbs. field ready. and I don't have a belly pump. I'm assuming the F12 could weigh that toally stripped but the actuall unit might be considerable more.

Brent...Sounds like you're on your way to owning a GREAT tractor! I believe BOTH the F-12 and the limited edition F-14 has the same rear wheel width...making a dual axel 8' by 14' flatbed trailer the most perfered model. If your trailer has a brake controler, and is weight rated for 5000 pounds you'll be just right!

Country,
 Well, he who hesitates is lost. The guy says he forgot I was interested and sold it last week. I would have had to buy a bigger trailer that's why I was asking about the weight. Guess I saved myself some money until next time!
