Noticed some of the posts discussing home built storage units for a variety of implements allowing easy on/off. I have done similar for the easier stuff - box blade, pallet forks, brush hog. All my wheeled storage "devices" are essentially heavy duty, custom sized dollies that allow me to move...

Have finally signed an ageement to become a true JD owner vs. just a shopper! Can't wait to get it out here and start using it vs. breaking my own back!! I bought a 2001 4600 with only 251 hours, a 460 loader, Kelley B750 Backhoe and a brand new LX6 mower. Delivered to Texas from Indiana for...

Just found a JD4600 with a Kelley B750 on it with 3 point attachment. Does anyone have any info on how well this works or if there are any issues to consider before I move forward??? Thanks.

I live in Fort Worth area and have been talking to the folks at Turner Equipment in Fowler, IN just north of Indianapolis. I would sure be lucky if any of you've heard of or even dealt with them as I'd like to know something about their local reputation before I buy from them. Obviously their...

Saw one of these recently and it might exactly fit the specs I'm looking for. One big question though - it was only made in 1999 according to tractortips.com. Does anyone know anything about why such a limited run? Also, does anyone know if there were/are any known common issues with this...

I think I'm finally learning from all these posts and am getting close to deciding on a used tractor. I've looked at Deere, NH, Kubota, Mahindra, Ferguson, Yanmar, Nortrac and few other off brands. Seems like I'm drifting back toward a 2001 JD4300, with 366 hr, R4 tires, hydrostat and a FEL...

I am just stepping in to this forum and will be moving to a very small farm - 7 acres in Jan. About 4 of it is used for pasturing and I'm trying to figure out inexpensive tractor/mower options. I looked at a 1985 Ford 1100 with a finish mower (she wanted 3k though will probably take less) and I...
