When looking at any 8N here are the things that get expensive quick. First make sure the 3 point lift works right. Just go done fixing one on Monday. Next check the steering linkages and slop in the steering box at the end of the steering wheel shaft. Another item that can get costly is wheels. Make sure they are in good shape, especially the rears. Many times they were filled with Calcium and rot.
3 point lift repair is around $600
Steering repair is around $600
Wheels can cost as much as $1800 if new rubber is needed.
I have a co-worker, one of the 8N's I told you I transported in another thread, that had all these items go. He now has nearly $4000 in a $1500 tractor.
