What are some brand and model numbers to search for with mechanical hydro transmission. Looking for something in the 40 to 50 HP range that can lift a ton or more.

I am talking pre computer and emission models.

Price is dependent on the age and condition.

Seems like hydro transmission didn't become available on these size tractors until recently. I may not be able to find anything simple in a mid size tractor.

The new Yanmar YT3 series have a great “integrated hydro-mechanical transmission” (iHMT) in both 47hp and 59hp.

Probably not your thing tho because they’re not pre-computer and emission.

I would take a look at the Branson 20 and 25 series. Looks like a good candidate for you. No electronics, well apart form the dashboard. Mechanical HST. One of the highest 3 point and FEL capacity on this range of tractors. Also one of the heaviest. Really well made and heavy duty tractor.

It does have a DPF/DOC emission system. But that's easy enough to address if it will ever become a problem. It's as simple as remove the guts out of the DPF canister or just remove the whole DPF can and data logger and put a muffler in it's place. It will run just fine, if not better, without it.

I was told that the Kubota MX series was a Mechanical HST and not all Computerized
You may check into that They start at 49 HP and go to 60 HP

Mahindra doesn't have the emission stuff as the other ones, the pre-computer I'm not sure probably an older model year most relatively new stuff has some for of computers on them. How much pre-computer are you looking for?

On Kubota's I think before 2012 to avoid most emission stuff. My 2010 M6040 has none.

Are you looking for a tractor like the 2000-2002 Deere 4700 Hydrostatic? Are you looking for a hydraulic shuttle? Are you looking for an industrial type torque converter, power reverser? The 2003 4710 and up are eHydro, which is a really nice transmission. What price range do you want to be in?
