TERRAPLANE TD70 TIRES
The Terraplane TD70 tractor offers two drivetrain configurations, 2WD and 4WD, catering to different operational needs. The 4WD variant enhances traction on uneven or slippery terrain due to its larger front tires (8.30-24), making it ideal for heavy-duty agricultural applications. Conversely, the 2WD model, with standard tires (6.50-20 front), may be more fuel-efficient and cost-effective for flat, well-maintained fields but could struggle in challenging conditions.
