Introduction

Steiger Panther II ST-310: The 4WD Powerhouse You Need!

Get ready to meet a true titan of the fields! The Steiger Panther II ST-310 isn't just a tractor; it's a statement of power, durability, and relentless performance. Built by Steiger in Fargo, North Dakota, this four-wheel-drive beast from the mid-70s is engineered to tackle the most demanding agricultural jobs with unwavering resolve. Let's dive into what makes this machine a legend.

Unleash the Cummins Beast

At the heart of the Panther II ST-310 beats a formidable Cummins NT-855-C310 turbocharged diesel engine. This 6-cylinder, liquid-cooled marvel displaces 855 cubic inches (14.0 L) and churns out a massive 310 horsepower at 2100 RPM. With a torque rating of 890 lb-ft (1206.8 Nm) also at 2100 RPM, this engine provides the raw power needed to pull the heaviest implements through the toughest conditions. Its 14:1 compression ratio ensures efficient combustion, while the robust cooling system, including a 33-quart radiator capacity, keeps performance optimal even under extreme loads.

Transmission and Drivetrain: Built for the Grind

Powering through the fields is made seamless with the Dana-Spicer 1010 transmission, offering a versatile 10 forward and 2 reverse gears. This, combined with articulated power steering and outboard planetary final drives, ensures exceptional traction and maneuverability. The four-wheel-drive system provides superior grip, allowing you to push limits without hesitation. Hydraulic disc brakes offer reliable stopping power, crucial for safe operation when fully loaded.

Hydraulics and Operator Comfort: Work Smarter, Not Harder

The hydraulic system features an open center type, with a pump delivering a robust 20.6 gpm (78.0 lpm) at 2000 psi (137.9 bar). This ample hydraulic power, managed through 3 valves, ensures responsive control of implements. The operator's station is designed for productivity, with a standard cab that offers optional heating and air conditioning. This focus on comfort means you can stay focused and productive, no matter the length of your workday.

Dimensions and Stability: Grounded Power

Weighing in at a substantial 29,000 lbs (13154 kg) maximum, the Panther II ST-310 is built for stability. Its 122-inch (309 cm) wheelbase contributes to a planted feel, while the generous ground clearance of 20 inches (50 cm) ensures it can navigate varied terrain. With an overall length of 235 inches (596 cm) and a width of 95 inches (241 cm), this tractor commands a presence and offers a stable platform for heavy-duty operations.

Conclusion

"The Steiger Panther II ST-310 is a testament to robust engineering and raw agricultural power. Its potent Cummins engine, capable transmission, and sturdy construction make it a reliable workhorse for any serious farming operation. If you're looking for a tractor that delivers uncompromising performance and durability, the Panther II ST-310 is an outstanding choice that continues to impress decades after its production."
