In 1982, alongside the Series IV models, the Steiger Panther 1000 was introduced, featuring a 12+2-speed PowerPulse full powershift transmission. The cab was new and more spacious than before. The digital instrument panel could display 4 different pieces of information at once, and in addition, the pillar had traditional small gauges for things like temperature and fuel. The front end was more sharply sloped than before. For the first time, the hydraulics were load-sensing. The power take-off was now mechanical, meaning it could deliver full power. The Panther 1000 was available in 325-, 360-, and 400-horsepower versions. All were available with both Cat and Cummins engines.

In 1985, a smaller model called the Cougar 1000 was introduced, featuring a 280-horsepower engine and a mechanical 20+4-speed transmission. A year later, it too received a full powershift transmission. At the same time, a 235-horsepower version called the Bearcat 1000 was introduced. Starting from 1986, the only version of the Panther was the 335-horsepower model, and a more powerful 375-horsepower version was named the Lion 1000. All these models were available with both Cat and Cummins engines. The table contains information on only one of these.

At the lower end of the lineup, much smaller models were introduced: the Puma 1000 (190 hp) and the Wildcat 1000 (220 hp). These models were designed to compete with traditional tractors and were marketed without dual wheels. The engines were 8.3-liter Cummins with electronic engine management. The transmission was a similar 12+2 full powershift as in the larger models. As an option, they had a pivoting front axle that complemented the frame steering, reducing the turning radius to 7.8 meters.

At the time these models were introduced, Steiger’s financial situation became troubled. This was caused by a collapse in tractor demand and heavy investments in product development. The company went into receivership, and in 1986 Steiger was bought by Tenneco and became part of Case IH. Existing models were repainted red and renamed the Case IH 9100 series.
