The indusrial tractor has:

No PTO
No Pulley
Large drum brakes at the end of the axles ILO small drums on the bull shaft.
No 3pl
Optional trailer vacuum brakes
A large drawbar hook.
Non adjustable pressed steel rear wheels. (some export ag tractors had these wheels, eg New Zealand)

I have read that the industrial versions of the Majors also had a special manifold as an option that allowed the engine turn slightly faster. The faster rpms meant a little more power. The different manifold was not used in agricultural versions.

This engine was also used in the Thames Trader Truck range. The Diesel engines had identical manifolds. The gas/ petrol engines had the same manifold but diffrent carburetors.

Engine speed on truck engines was higher than those on tractors. This was achieved by adjustment to the throtle control on the manifold on early engines and the injector pump on later engines.

I have compared the part numbers of manifolds and injector pumps of truck/tractor for engines made after March 1957 and they appear to be the same except for the carburetors.

One thing I did miss was that the industrial tractor has only one brake peddle.

Early tractor engines hade smaller injector pump bores.

Diesel truck engines were set at 2700rpm no load and 2400rpm load and gas engines were set at 3000rpm. Tractor engines were set to rev much lower.
