Buying Advice Looking for a FEL for my JD4200

dw1970 · Jul 12, 2011

I'm looking for a FEL for my JD4200.

The JD dealer seems to think a Bush Hog 2297 would work for me at $3500. This would include install and quick attach.

I already have the joystick and the values as they came with the tractor.

Is there something out there for a better price point.

Thanks,
Roger

Hello Roger...
I just purchased a FEL for my NH 1720 several months ago from my local NH dealer...
It is a Stoll FC 350...
He also stocks Amsung and Bush Hog Loaders in addition to the NH line...
I don't know the specs of the Bush Hog unit, but my local dealer was able to sell me the Stoll unit at a lower price than the Bush Hog or Amsung units...
NH was much higher...
I have been very satisfied with the Stoll...
It is a compact unit made for my 1720 that has a 1000# lift capacity...
My dealer told me that Stoll allowed him to stock units at no cost...
Only pay for the units when sold...
He has a lot of them on the lot and has sold quite a few...
Take that for what it's worth...
The pricing on that FC 350 was $2850 with $275 install charge...
A quick attach bucket is about $500 more but I did not have enough money for that option...
Bush Hog is a good brand...
I think that you would be very happy with it...
I like my Stoll very much...
No qualms at all...
