C4D vs. C5D Tree Farmer

What's the difference between the C4D and C5D Tree Farmer machines  ???  I've never seen them side by side and from pics they look pretty much the same  :-\

Hey Corley5 , I always thought the difference was in options. The C4D had ford and duetz while the C5D had detroits about a 6 hp increase.  The C4D had the gearmatic 9 while the C5D had the Cancar 20 with alot more pull. Stephen

I looked at a C4 once that had a detroit in it. I think the c5 is just a little bit bigger

Hi Guys. Pretty well all the C5 porters around here have Deutz engines in them. I think the Difference is probably in the housings. C5 might have a bit more power buts it's probably built a lot heavier  ??? . Just my thoughts

Back in '78, our C4 porter came with a 4 cyl. Deutz and 18.4x26 tires while our neighbor's C5 had a 5 cyl. Deutz, heavier rear ends, and 23.1x26 tires.
