Case-IH JX 1070 C or Case-IH JX 1070 U (A)?

Which should you choose?

On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Case-IH JX 1070 U (A): three-point lift and maximum permissible mass.

  • The Case-IH JX 1070 U (A) suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 87% (2,118 kg / 4,669 lb) more three-point lift.
  • The Case-IH JX 1070 U (A) suits road haulage better on this data: 13% (600 kg / 1,323 lb) more maximum permissible mass.

Generated by rule set compare@4 from the figures on the side-by-side table, allowed by route “the same stated configuration”. Measured figures are compared only with measured, claimed only with claimed, at the same test condition; differences within each figure’s tolerance are not called.
