Two innovative New Holland FWD axle options provide advantages in the field and on the road.
FASTER, SHARPER TURNS WITH SUPERSTEER™
The optional SuperSteer™ FWD axle pivots as the tractor turns, adding 19 degrees of articulation to 46 degrees of turn angle for an unmatched 65-degree turn angle. You turn sharper and faster, achieving an amazing 35% reduction in headland turn time. You’ll also get in and out of tight spaces easily and work more productively in small fields. You also can equip your T7000 tractor with the SuperSteer and FastSteer™ options for an exclusive combination that redefines turning ease.

SIMPLE, INGENIOUS DESIGN
The SuperSteer™ axle is attached to the tractor with a simple, heavy-duty ball-and-socket joint. As the tractor turns, the whole axle pivots and the inside tire moves away from the tractor. At the same time, the outside wheel moves forward, in front of the tractor’s nose, providing more tire clearance, a greater turning angle and reduced turnaround diameter.
SMOOTH-RIDING TERRAGLIDE™ FWD AXLE
The TerraGlide™ axle provides up to 4.13 inches of travel to keep the front tires in contact with the ground, letting you ease through rough spots. The result is an ultra-smooth ride plus maximum traction, stability and steering control.
A SIMPLER, MORE AFFORDABLE DESIGN
The TerraGlide™ FWD axle design is less complicated than competitive systems. The system self-levels, regardless of the front axle load to maintain full suspension travel at all times. A convenient override switch on the armrest console allows you to lock out the front suspension between speeds of .9 and 7.4 mph—another feature not found on other systems.

MAXIMUM POWER TERRALOCK™ TRACTION SYSTEM
Fully automatic FWD and front and rear differential lock engagement are included in the TerraLock™ traction system, which is standard equipment on all T7000 Series tractors. The result is full-drive capability through all four wheels for more positive traction.
THREE TERRALOCK™ MODES
The TerraLock switch has three positions—off, full-time and automatic. In automatic mode, the TerraLock system engages and disengages front-wheel drive and four-wheel differential lock depending on steering angle, forward ground speed, threee-point hitch quick raise use and brake application.
CHOOSE YOUR TERRALOCK™ MODE
Automatic mode delivers optimum traction when traveling straight, then disengaging FWD and diff lock when the steering wheel is turned to improve maneuverability. If forward speed exceeds 9 mph, both FWD and differential locks will temporarily disengage. When TerraLock™ is engaged fulltime, both FWD and differential lock remain engaged until you activate the brakes. You also may turn TerraLock off to completely disengage FWD and the front and rear differential lock.
FOUR-WHEEL ASSISTED BRAKING
Self-adjusting, self-equalizing hydraulic wet disc brakes deliver the stopping power you need. When both brake pedals are applied simultaneously, FWD engages automatically to aid in braking action for added control.
