Re: Tractor for the Compound
I like the street sweeper best. The post hole digger comes in a close second. The back hoe and front loader is just out of control. The only atachments I have right now are the rotor tiller, dump cart, and the all weather cover with a windshield wiper. Thing weighs 1100 pounds dry.
The best part is that the tractor is hydrostatic which means it runs off hydrolics. So the front, middle, and rear of the tractor has hydrolic connectors to control attachments.

Now I just need to find places that sells these attachments or find a tractor bone yard to pieces one together. The tractor was built between 1975 and 1980.

Re: Tractor for the Compound
Yesterday the tractor finally started. I now have $100 into the tractor. New spark plugs, wires, and selnoid. I had to buy a kit to re-tap the spark plug threads in the block and then insert a keensert (similar to a heli-coil).

I love that tractor. I even went home at 9am to get the manual so I can give her a lube job tonight. I also registered the trailer today and went for my NH license. I failed the eye test so now I need to go get glasses.
