This 15-25 "G-2" model began production in 1929 and was the same basic design as the 18-35. It weighed 4,200 pounds and used a Waukesha 4-cylinder engine. Production ended with the sale of the company to J.I. Case in 1937. |

Jim Brehmer wrote on Tuesday, May 19, 2009 (PDT):My Dad bought a Rock Island new in 1933. We sold it to a collector in the family in about 1980. It still ran and I recall using it once in about 1958 to pull one of our other tractors out of a mudhole. I recently heard that it has been totally restored and is in Indiana. I think I may still have some parts for it. Possibly a carburetor and magneto.
ronald clingan wrote on Friday, April 10, 2009 (PDT):I m in the process of restoring the family 1929 15-25. It has t been running in 25 years. The clutch is seized on it, we ve been soaking and turning and it still won t break loose, does anyone have any ideas short of tearing the tractor apart I m also looking for front steel wheels and a front end or specs to fabricate one, it currently has an international front end. As always, any help is appreciated.

Matthew Kramlich wrote on Wednesday, September 05, 2007 (PDT):My father in-law has a Rock Island model G, not a G-2. I believe it was built in either 27 or 28. It has the Waukesha engine that is cradled in engine frame rails. I have done a bit of research on this model and I get the impression that the G model is extremely rare. Does anyone out there have an estimate on the value of this tractor It has not run in a long time and needs complete restoration, but the entire tractor is complete minus the magneto on the engine. Otherwise nothing is missing.

Wayne Tanner wrote on Sunday, April 11, 2004 (PDT):I have finally about completed the restoration on my Rock Island G-2, All I have left to do is to convert my front wheels back to steel and paint them. My rear wheels were cut down and converted to rubber but I found that older John Deer "D" wheels fit right on and are the same, not so on the front. The ser.# on mine is 100085 can anyone give any insight on that. The gentelman I bought the tractor from told me that it is a 1930.

Roy Wolf wrote on Wednesday, July 09, 2003 (PDT):Does anyone out there have a picture(s) of the Rock Island F and FA? They had a bore and strokc of 4 1/2 by 6 inches whereas the G-2 had a 4 1/4 by 5 1/4; good replacements for the old Steam Power Tractors....My father (Pa Wolf)owned one of the last G-2's made before Case bought the RI. Great tractors for their day; J.I.Case was a worthy successor for them.....the old L and LA Cases remined me of the R.I.'s....
