Everything about our Steiger Tiger III ST450 is in this video. I give you a walkaround, talk about some of its features, talk about some of the things we did to it, and take it out plowing.

The Steiger Tiger III was built from 19771982, and this particular tractor was built in 1978. From 19771979, the Steiger Tiger was powered by the 1150 Cummins, running at about 450 horsepower. Then, from 19801982, Steiger switched the engine to a 3408 Caterpillar V8, which had 470 horsepower. Regardless of the year or engine, this tractor comes in at 45,000 pounds, before adding additional weight or fluid in the tires. Speaking of tires, our Steiger came equipped with 30.532 Firestone Forestry tires. These tires are known to wear like iron, and although some were concerned with how much traction it gets with these, I can assure you it hooks up just fine. This tractor also came equipped with an Allison automatic transmission, a very different driving experience from the tractors we have today. All in all, this Steiger was a monster in its time, and still is today.

Thanks for watching, and I'll see ya on the next one!
