All makes were involved and colors were sometimes mixed. Dad and I had a farmall 400 in front and a F20 in the rear pulling an IH 4X14" Model #16 plow. The best Piggy-back setup was a Farmall 560D in the rear and a SMTAD in the front. This was steered with hyd. cylinders ( no front wheels on either tractor. The 560d in the rear had a cab and a fast hitch and was the tractor the driver drove from this tractor. In the fall these tractors each had a IH. two row mounted corn picker and after the corn was harvested they were hooked togather and did the fall tillage and in the spring pulled a fast hitched mounted field cult. Other combos included 560 & F30, 806 & H, a pair of farmallM's, An M & DC case, John deere 60 & unstyled G, a MM M5 & and U pulling a 5 or 6 bottom oliver pipe plow and in the spring a 21ft. IH field cult. I wished I had pictures of these combinations. Armand P.S. Once in a while some of these piggybacks show up at the old tractor shows. I don't know your location but at the 2009 Rantoul,Ill. Harvest Days show there should be 1 or2 of these rigs doing field work.
