There is also a trailer to haul the whole lot with. I know that there have been some problems with the backhoe attachment, I don't know about the front end loader. I've not seen much on the value of these older machines.

IMO, $19,500 for this package without the trailer is pretty high. No way he'd be able to clear 23 or 24K by selling the individual components.
Tractor/FEL/BH would sell for less than a CK30 TLB used and probably about the same as a CK20 TLB. I'd guess 13-14K, maybe 15 if he's lucky. The LK3054 is an excellent TLB but not one in high demand like a Kubota BX24 or a newer HST based Kubota, JD or Kioti TLB.
As noted in an earlier post, the implements if in decent shape but not high end versions would be worth a total of about $3000-4000 used (I have trouble believing that anyone would buy a heavy duty name brand bush hog with this package for example so am assuming mid level or value brand implements and assigning values like you'd see on craigslist not on a dealers lot). Used rakes, box blades, bush hogs, and back blades simply don't sell for much more than $500 -600 a piece used in the 5ft size that would be expected with a less than 30hp tractor. Subsoilers are cheap. Implements in good shape usually sell on craigslist for about 50-60% of what you'd pay new.
To me that makes the TLB plus decent implements worth a total of $16,500 (bargain) to about $18,000 (fair) when sold individually.
Caveat: a hydraulic feed wood chipper could be worth more than the $1500 I estimated depending brand and condition. If it is a Chinese brand then that is probably more than what he'd get. If it is a premium Scandinavian chipper then he might get double. It still doesn't exceed even $20,000 total when separated.
