The 2255 puller had a 55 series rear end, probably a 2255 rear end with the axles changed over to the non-planetary axle type like from a 1955. The front frame was a custom made steel frame instead of the original cast iron and the grille was made of wood to reduce the weight of the tractor. If you want to see more 2255 pulling action then the web site to see is http://www.winsouls.net/pbc/oliver/oliver.htm There is lots of information and pictures plus video clips. Defintely worth a visit. |
