ENGINE DETAIL
The J.I. Case 2470 features a robust turbocharged 6-cylinder diesel engine with a substantial displacement of 8.3L, delivering a gross power output of 213hp at 2200 RPM, allowing it to perform effectively in demanding agricultural tasks. Its dual paper air cleaner system enhances engine efficiency and longevity, while a compression ratio of 15.8:1 indicates strong torque potential, beneficial for heavy-duty operations. However, the relatively high coolant capacity of 44 quarts necessitates careful monitoring to prevent overheating during extended use in challenging environments.

TRANSMISSION
The J.I. Case 2470 tractor features a partial power shift transmission with 12 forward and 2 reverse gears, allowing for smooth gear transitions without clutch engagement, which enhances operational efficiency in various field conditions. The hydraulic wet disc clutch provides durability and improves handling during heavy-duty tasks. However, the complexity of the power shift system may necessitate higher maintenance and operator training for optimal performance.
| Transmission | Range Power Shift |
| Type | partial power shift |
| Gears | 12 forward and 2 reverse |
| Clutch | hydraulic wet disc |
| Description | Four gears (1-4), each with a three-range power shift (1-3 and R) |
J.I. CASE 2470 TRANSMISSION
The J.I. Case 2470 tractor features a 12-speed partial power shift transmission, providing smooth gear changes and improved operational efficiency, particularly in varying terrain. This transmission system allows for on-the-go shifting without clutching, enhancing productivity and reducing operator fatigue. However, maintenance of the power shift components may require specialized knowledge due to their complexity, which could present challenges in rural service scenarios.

J.I. CASE 2470 TIRES
The J.I. Case 2470 tractor utilizes 18.4-30 tires on both the front and available rear options ranging from 18.4-30 to 23.1-30, allowing for flexibility based on field conditions and load requirements. The advantage of the rear tire options provides enhanced flotation and traction, particularly in softer soil conditions. However, selecting larger rear tires may raise the center of gravity, potentially affecting stability on slopes or uneven terrains; thus, careful consideration of the operational environment is crucial.
| Ag front | 18.4-30 |
| Ag rear | 18.4-30 / 20.8-34 / 23.1-30 |
DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The J.I. Case 2470 tractor features a substantial wheelbase of 102 inches, providing stability for heavy-duty tasks such as plowing and towing. Weighing between 15,500 to 20,485 pounds, its weight can enhance traction but may limit maneuverability in tight spaces. The uniform tire size of 18.4-34 front and rear allows for improved weight distribution and better soil compaction, though it may require specific calibration for optimal performance in varied terrains.
| Wheelbase | 102inches / 259cm |
| Weight | 15500 to 20485 pounds |
| Front tire | 18.4-34 |
