David Brown Synchromesh range – models 990, 1210 and 1410 from Meltham: four-cylinder diesel from 42.7 to 66.9 kW, 3,194 to 3,627 cm³ displacement and Synchromesh gearbox

David Brown Tractors built its farm tractors at the Meltham plant in West Yorkshire, England. The Synchromesh range takes its name from the gearbox of the same name with synchronised gears, which set the models 990, 1210 and 1410 apart from older David Brown ranges with unsynchronised gearboxes. The numbers in the type designation roughly follow the power class within the range.

The register lists 3 versions with 42.7 to 66.9 kW rated output at 2,200 to 2,300 rpm. The four-cylinder diesel engines produce between 3,194 and 3,627 cm³ displacement, torque ranges from 206 to 304 Nm. Operating weights lie between 2,585 and 3,265 kg, lengths between 3,302 and 3,632 mm.

The Synchromesh range placed David Brown in the mid to upper power segment of its own model line-up, competing there with British and international rivals such as Ford, Massey Ferguson and International Harvester. The synchronised gearbox eased gear changes under load compared with older designs and was an important selling point at the time.

When buying used, the condition of the clutch and synchro rings in the gearbox rank among the most expensive checks, along with corrosion on wings, brakes and hydraulic lines. Spare parts supply for the Synchromesh range today runs mainly through specialist vintage farm machinery dealers, some of whom also offer remanufactured wear parts.

What to check before buying

Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
Check front and rear tyre sizes: mismatched pairs strain the drivetrain.
Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
