Hi to you all,
I am new to tractors and this forum.....so treat me like a "no-nothing"
cause I gotta start learning before I hurt myself
A neighbour of mine was fleeing California.....going to Tenesee?..
....and said "Do you want my old tractor and all the stuff that goes with it?
...I'll make you a really good deal!" :)

So now I have a ford 1210 4wd, with a hydrstatic trans, front loader, box scraper. rakes(2) and a disc plough.
The trans seems a little weak?...how do you test it?
one of the injectors is leaking at the block.....but it starts right up and runs.
...blows smoke...makes my eyes burn???
...and finally, it came with a "beat up" Kubota backhoe, that looks about the right size, but that doesn't fit/attach.
I repaired the elbow on the backhoe for him, about 2 years ago..I weld/cut and have a mill and lathe.
But the two...tractor and backhoe... have never been together
The question is....Is there a source for plans for a subframe to marry these two?
And also if I make an attachment frame, where are the load bearing points too attach the frame too the tractor....so I don't break it.
Is there an aftermarket ROP's that I can use on this tractor?...I live on a very sloped piece of ground...I am affraid :eek:
Yep I've done a few searches, so far nothing specific has come up
any 1210 owners here..lets talk
Owen ...stuck in N.Cal

goffoz,

I am a 3 week veteran of TBN now, so first of all - Welcome to it! I have none of the answers to your questions, but from what I can see and have picked up in three weeks of reading (layed up temporarily from a surgery, was looking for some Kubota parts to order, stumbled on TBN, and have been hooked since) is that you will have someone out there that can answer you, make suggestions, send pictures, provide diagrams, you name it. I think you'll find, like I have, that you will wish you found it long ago. Welcome aboard.

Just for fun, I attached a few pictures of Central Maine yesterday. Dyer, retired
