The gross vehicle weight is 8,500 kg. Rated output across the Ford range ranges from 7 to 504 kW; the 8340 SLE 4X4 sits in the lower part of that range with 92 kW. Its immediate neighbours are the Ford TW10 below it with 91 kW and the BA 2400 cm³ above it with 93 kW. Unladen weight across the Ford range ranges from 710 to 23,550 kg; here the 8340 SLE 4X4 sits in the lower part of that range with 4,930 kg. 5516 Ford models across 101 series are on record.

Ford – other models: the collective page of tractors outside the named ranges, from the Thousand series through the 10 series to the articulated tractors with Cummins and Caterpillar engines, 10 to 300 kW

This page gathers the Ford tractors the register could not assign to a named range – from small utility tractors of the North American and British plants to the heavy articulated tractors of the Versatile brand, taken over by Ford in the late 1980s. Ford had built farm tractors since 1917, first in Dearborn, from the 1930s also in Dagenham, England; the post-war 600 to 900 models led in 1965 into the Thousand series (2000, 3000, 4000, 5000), replaced in 1975 by the generation with a leading 0. From 1981 came the 10 series (2110 to 8210), in which the first two digits give the size and the last the generation; SU marks the narrow-track Utility version. The big articulated tractors, formerly built under the Versatile name in Winnipeg, ran from 1987 as the Ford FW with Cummins and Caterpillar engines; after the merger with New Holland in 1991 the independent Ford range ended.

The register lists here 237 versions with 9.7 to 300 kW from two- to eight-cylinders of 1,390 to 14,801 cm³, PTO outputs up to 163 hp, unladen weights from 1,061 to 14,200 kg, gross weights from 2,280 to 11,400 kg, lengths from 2,410 to 7,600 mm and widths from 1,070 to 2,845 mm; the engines are mostly Ford's own, Cummins and Caterpillar in the big articulated tractors.

For decades Ford was, alongside International Harvester, Massey Ferguson and John Deere, one of the best-selling tractor brands of North America and Europe, focused on utility tractors for family farms; the FW-range articulated tractors competed in the top power segment with Steiger and Case IH.

On used tractors, engine condition, clutch and gearbox synchros count on the older ranges, hydraulics and electrics on the 10 series, and on the articulated tractors operating hours, condition of the four-wheel drive and tyres, and parts supply for the Cummins or Caterpillar engines, which today runs outside the Ford network.

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.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
