International Harvester 2+2- 88 series

The register lists 6 versions with 97.1 to 127.2 kW from six-cylinder engines of 7,139 to 7,639 cm³, torque up to 610 Nm at 2,400 to 2,500 rpm, kerb weights of 7,902 to 8,446 kg, a length of 5,766 to 5,799 mm, a width of 2,581 to 2,845 mm and a height of 2,913 to 2,941 mm; every model runs on diesel.

The 2+2 targeted large operations in the American Midwest that wanted the pulling power of a four-wheel-drive tractor with the manoeuvrability and visibility of a standard one - a niche between the articulated giants from Steiger and Versatile and classic row-crop tractors. When International Harvester merged with Case to form Case IH in 1985, the line was discontinued, and its unusual layout never got a direct successor.

On a used example, check the articulation area between the engine cradle and the rear axle along with the steering cylinders, the six-cylinder's injection pump and turbo ducting, the power-shift transmission, the implement hydraulics, and the tyres, which on such heavy tractors were often fitted as duals; parts now run through the Case IH network.
