Thought the tractor decison was the hard part! Anyway, thinking of getting a JD 3120 and uses will be moving snow (bucket and blade), grading our gravel driveway and perhaps scraping some dirt around to sorta make a small remote control car track.
Anyway...primary use is snow and gravel. Dealer was selling me on Land Pride vs King Cutter. Tractor doesn't currently have any rear hydraulics, so adjust by hand unless I add them.
Question is how big and which model???
I was thinking 5' so I don't lose traction, but someone mentioned I need 6' so cover my tire width when angled. Then there is the issue of can I turn the blade around without having to take it off issue I've seen in a couple threads. Dealer said the LP can be offset, tilted, angled, etc so pretty versatile it sounds. Dunno though cuz never owned one.
Tractor has 210 lbs wheel weights on both sides and I'm thinking of getting beet juice in the oversized R4 tires. Has a loader on the front.
Should I get rear hydraulics added?
Suggestions are welcome!
Thanks.
