Common questions
J.I. Case 1370 weight FAQ
How much does a J.I. Case 1370 weigh?
The J.I. Case 1370 weighs 13,170 lb (5,973 kg) using the published Cab figure. Across the published configurations on this page, weight ranges from 11,690 to 20,960 lb (5,302 to 9,507 kg).
How much does the J.I. Case 1370 weigh with ballast?
The published ballasted weight is 20,960 lb (9,507 kg). That is up to 9,270 lb (79.3%) above the lightest published configuration. Ballast can therefore change the practical hauling and ground-pressure picture substantially on this model.
Is the J.I. Case 1370 a heavy farm tractor?
Yes. The representative figure sits at about the 79th percentile, heavier than roughly 79% of the all tractors in this dataset. That puts it in the heavy range for this comparison. It is 3,243 lb heavier than the peer-group average of 9,927 lb.
How wide is the J.I. Case 1370 for transport?
The maximum published tractor width is 96 in (8 ft). That is 6 in under 8.5 ft before allowing for a loader, duals, implements or other equipment that may increase transport width.
Does the J.I. Case 1370 weigh more than 10,000 lb?
Yes. The representative published weight is 13,170 lb, and the heaviest published configuration on this page is 20,960 lb (10.48 US tons). Any trailer calculation also needs the trailer itself plus fuel, ballast, attachments and other equipment.
What is the J.I. Case 1370 weight-to-horsepower ratio?
Using the page’s representative 13,170 lb weight and 155.6 hp power figure, the tractor carries about 84.7 lb per horsepower. A lower lb/hp number means less tractor mass for each horsepower; this is a comparison metric, not a traction or performance rating.
