Farmall BN

The Farmall BN, a farm tractor notable for its service in row-crop applications, was released as part of International Harvester's well-respected tractor lineup. Manufactured between 1939 and 1947, the BN was built with attention to the needs of the time, featuring a straightforward and robust design. This tractor operates on a 2WD (4x2) chassis and is powered by an International Harvester C113 gasoline engine with a 113.1 cubic inch displacement, naturally aspirated through a simple inline cylinder setup. The tractor's mechanics are characterized by an unsynchronized gear transmission including four forward and one reverse gear, manifesting in practically sufficient speeds for various farming tasks. While modern comforts were minimal, this model offered a simple and functional open operator station and relied on manual steering and mechanical external contracting band brakes.
