L3901 Shuttle Shift

tderrick · Apr 11, 2020

I'm about to pull the trigger on a 3901 over the 2501 and 3301 for 2 reasons - the added HP and Live PTO with the geared, 4WD model. I'm still researching
the site for more info.

I was wondering it the shuttle shift feature I have been reading about is available on the 3901.

Good deal.

Man, with the shuttle bit, 4WD and live PTO, this rig is going to be like a space ship compared to my old 8N Ford. lol

Now I can just treat the old girl like the antique she is and give her a nice long restoration. She has served me well for 25 years... amazing how time fly's.

Have you looked at other brands?

Plenty of tractors out there offering a 12x12 transmission with Independant PTO (some with 540+540E) and lots more features.

I haven't been looking at much else. Almost exclusively JD and Kubota here in Tennessee, USA. So I figure the farmers know more than I do. JD is too steep for me.
