Massey Ferguson 174C – Full Specifications & Overview
The Massey Ferguson 174C is an agricultural crawler tractor designed for high-traction work in challenging soil conditions.
Unlike the 2WD and 4WD wheeled models (MF174 / MF174-4), the 174C uses steel tracks, giving superior stability and pulling strength on slopes, soft fields, orchards, and wet terrain.
Built for durability, it features a 3.9L Perkins diesel engine, strong open-center hydraulics, and a rugged 8-speed transmission ideal for continuous heavy-duty use.
