Iseki TU145/155/165/175 4WD variants
Besides the standard 2WD version, this series also has several 4WD variants with slightly different dimensions, weight, and tyre sizes. The engine block remains unchanged in all cases compared to the 2WD version of the same model.
| Version | Length | Weight | Front/rear tyres | Notable feature |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TU145F | 2180mm | 650kg | 5.00-12 / 8-16 | Standard 4WD version of the TU145 |
| TU145F-13 | 2110mm | 640kg | 5-12 / 7-16 | More compact version |
| TU155F | 2200mm | 665kg | 5.00-12S / 8-18 | Standard 4WD version of the TU155 |
| TU155F-N17 | 2160mm | 660kg | 5-12 / 7-14 | More compact version |
| TU155MF | 2110mm | 570kg | 5-12 / 6-14 | Narrowest track width in the series (690mm) |
| TU165F | 2280mm | 705kg | 6-12 / 8.3-20 | Standard 4WD version of the TU165 |
| TU175F | 2300mm | — | 5.00-12 / 8.3-22 | Standard 4WD version of the TU175 |

Iseki K3B, K3C and K3D: the engine codes explained
All four models run on a water-cooled 4-stroke 3-cylinder vertical diesel engine of the same basic design, but with increasing displacement and bore:
- K3B (TU145): 849cc, 14.5hp — the smallest engine in the series.
- K3C (TU155): 900cc, 15.5hp — a slightly larger bore than the K3B.
- K3D (TU165 and TU175): 979cc, 16.5hp and 17.5hp respectively — the largest engine in the series, with a 73mm bore. The power difference between the TU165 and TU175 lies in the injection pump and governor settings, not in a different displacement.
This difference is important to know when purchasing engine parts: head gaskets, piston rings and other engine-specific parts are not interchangeable between K3B/K3C on the one hand and K3D on the other, even though they belong to the same generation of tractor. See our Iseki TU165 buying guide for context on purchasing, and our Iseki TU165 faultsblog for the implications for engine overhaul.
Iseki TU165 and the sister series TU167
In short: the TU147/157/167/177 series is technically identical to the TU145/155/165/175 series. Every figure in the specification table above — engine code, displacement, power, dimensions, weight, tyres, transmission and capacities — matches exactly between the two series. This is presumably a case of two parallel model numbers for the same generation, depending on production year, export market or dealer badge. Read more about it in our Iseki TU165 buying guide.
Overhauling the engine? For the K3D engine (TU165/TU175) you'll need the head gasket Iseki Landhope TU165/TU170 (K3D, 73mm bore) for €39.50 and the complete gasket set Mitsubishi K3D for €129.50 — these do not fit the TU145/TU155 with the K3B/K3C engine.
