The story

The D14 opened Allis-Chalmers' D series in 1957 and was a completely new design rather than an update of the old Model C it replaced. Power came from a new 149 cubic inch four-cylinder Power-Crater engine that could run on gasoline or LP gas, driving through a four-speed gearbox and transfer case for eight forward speeds.

Buyers could choose a narrow front, a single front wheel or the new adjustable Roll-Shift wide axle, and high-clearance and rice versions were also built. Production ended in 1960 after 17,474 had been made, and the D15 took its place.

Did you knowThe adjustable wide front axle sold as Roll-Shift made its debut on the D14.
