Hi, I am thinking about buying a new Jinma 2544 in crate from a dealer about an hour from here. Was wondering how reliable the tractors are, how easy it is to get parts, and how well do they perform. Most of what I have read about these tractors has been very positive. I use to work at a Case IH, Cub Cadet, Kabota dealer and have serviced and put together many tractors and attachments, so putting one together from a crate should be fun for me. Does this model have rear dif lock? I haven't been to the dealer yet to check them out. The main thing that bothers me is the dealer only offers a 30 day warranty. I don't care so much about the labor, but a longer warranty on parts would be nice. Also, I would like install a loader on the tractor, how are the Jinma loaders? I plan on using the tractor for loader work (moving some dirt, brush and gravel) making ATV trails, snow removal, getting firewood, plowing our small garden, using a brush cutter and someday a 3pt snowblower. How are the backhoes? Thanks for any help. mitchash
