NH TN75A or Kubota 6800M

I did a little checking on the 32LA loader. There appears to be two different kinds/models. Maybe it's dependent on whether it's installed on a ROPs or a CAB. See the attached pictures. The ROPs is a picture of the 2002 used tractor for sale.
The ROPs model with a bale of hay is a 32LC (from NH website) but it looks like the 32LA installed on the CAB tractor. See attachments.

I guess the images don't get posted correctly. Here are the links

One of those loaders has mechanical self leveling. Look at the extra linkage on top of the horizontal part of the loader. The other two pictures are not the self leveling loader, unless it is with hydraulics. I don't know if that is even an option on the N.H. The self leveling loader should fit either a cab or open station tractor.

The previous poster is correct. The photo ending in 3113 is of a MSL FEL.

Hydraulic self leveling is not (to the best of my knowledge)available from NH. Neither is a curved arm loader on the TN series. I do not believe that the curved arm will buy you all that much, but I could be wrong.

Some of the earlier TN series machines used the rear remotes to run the FEL. This is a much less desireable situation than the difference between curved and straight loader arms. I would recommend a machine that uses mid-mount remotes for the FEL.

The mechanical self leveling is available for the 32LC loader, but from what I've read most people don't like it unless you're dealing with pallet forks alot. I guess if you think you'd be needing to keep your bucket/pallet forks/... level it would probably be worth it for you to upgrade to.

Thanks to EVERYONE for their help on my buying decision. Without going into all the details, I've decided to buy the smaller TC55DA from New Holland. I almost bought the CASE DX55 comparably equipped but the NH dealer wanted my business. The tractor is being delivered from the factory in two weeks, so it wouldn't of had sat on a dealer's lot for months. Here's the deal.

TC55DA
12X12 Power Shuttle Trans.
32LC Loader with quick attach bucket
Two additional Hydr. remotes
Loaded Tires
Steel Canopy
R4 Tires
Grill Guard
72" Armstrong AG Box Blade (SBX720)
$25,950.00

Box blade was $550 and is included in above price.

I'll be taking advantage of the 0%, 36 mo. financing.

I'll some pictures when the blue baby arrives!

Actually, it's the 18LA loader, not the 32LC.

Quite a change from what you wanted, but the higher HP will probably not be missed. That's plenty strong that you're getting. Congratulations on your purchase.

Congratulations on your new tractor. Be sure to post pictures after you get it and also a review in the review section after you have had it for awhile.

I didn't want to say it before, but I think that you made a great choice. That will be all that you need and the reduced weight will save you in the trailering department.

The TC55DA is a great tractor.
