RI isn't far at all from CT...

J DEERE 110 TLB 4WD 2003

There were two 110 TLB's for sale for a long time in RI- one with a cab, one without. IIRC high 20's for one, high 30's for the other.


Still waiting for my 4520 to arrive. It's funny how long it's taking for spring (May) to get here this year!

That one looks good, really good price as well.

One of the few benefits of buying used over new, it gets home faster:D Will be a very nice machine when you finally get it, though:thumbsup:

That's the one I was speaking of. I'm going to check it out today.

Saw another add - looks like they actually have two.

There was one for sale around Albany NY - seems to have disappeared off the classifieds. Given what was being asked not sure if it sold or if they gave up. Nice looking machine though, and low hours.

I talked with the guy today and will be checking it out after work. It's actually at his resturant so I doubt I'll be able to test it out. He seems to have other tractors also so maybe I'll be able to work a trade out. It has both front and rear hydro and three additional at the rear.

I was thinking of asking if I could grab oil samples before I bought it. I'd also like to test the scv's so I can avoid the situation Martian seems to be having.

Good deal Matt. I'm sure my situation is something very simple, everything else hydraulically works. Hopefully he would take a trade, it would definitely be ideal for you!

Well, I stopped by and took the 110 for a spin. My first impression is it was a contractor owned unit and never kept inside. I does indeed have all the options but I feel rode hard and put away wet may apply. The hood is real faded, the left side fender is broken at the first bolt so when you grab the handle the whole fender moves. The hoe, although it has the scv for a thumb doesn't have the quick attach. It seems like a wain roy bucket but pin on.

The front bucket is pretty banged up, the timing bar on the loader is bent, The roof has alot of scratches and scuffs(no big deal). All the control buttons and switches are fade but everything appeared to work.

I was able to dig just abit and it felt kind of slugish, the hydralics seem strong though. I feels large and clumsy compared to my 3320 for sure.

One thing I noticed that seems crazy is the engine oil fill cap. How the **** is one supposed to use it? Take the tank that's above it off?

The guy buys them from a Deere dealer in MA and resells them. He said he was pretty firm on the price but didn't really talk trade. He didn't have the 3pt hitch arms(yes, I know they aren't standard) but a guy in NH has a pair forsale. The tire seem in decent shape for 1200 hrs.

The boom of the hoe had some dents and a bolt sticking out of it. No cracks or welds that I could see. The power steering cylinder and opposing tie rod were slightly bent up. But not in any way that affected opperation.

So all in all it's in decent shape. I'm guess I'm a little **** of my garage queen 3320. But since the 110 wouldn't fit anyways maybe it's good that it's already faded. That way I won't agonize over leaving it out. I'd mostlikely get a large carport or something to keep it in.

Matt,
You can also fill the engine oil on the side; next to the radiator fan.

Decent shape... it sounds really bad, Matt! :eek: IMO - keep looking. There's some machines out there that aren't far off from "Garage Queens"!

Patience...

Most of it is cosmetic no real mechanical issues to speak of. The bent loader bar is probalbly the worst and I could straighten it at work in a press. The faded plastic seems real common. Again I didn't see an real deal breakers. I'm just a nitpicker by trade. I'd offer him 22k and if he didn't go for it walk on. And there are perfect machines out there but not as close and for alot more. I should be able to sell my machine and attachments and still have cash left over for some goodies for the 110.

So it's not the original owner? Don't worry about dings and dents **** happens over that amount of time. I like to baby things as well. My 4500 for example, (see avatar) is 6 years old with just over 6000 miles had never seen rain (or any sort of precipitation) or dirt roads and doesn't have a speck of dirt on it. But if I were to actually use it then it would be a different story. I'd be more worried about a sound machine, although to a point the looks do represent that.

They are much bigger than your 3320 and my 3120. But they are the same basic size, a little taller, then a 4x20 though.

Don't quote me on this, but I believe all you need is kit that snaps on to the old and makes it the QA, and I believe you can get another one of these 'converters' to work backwards with the std bucket to the QA.

I guess I'm lucky in the regard of storage. I have a 40' x 40' with 16' ceilings at home, 32' x 40' with 10' ceilings up north and 60' x 50' with 12' ceilings at the (mini) farm. I don't have a shortage of place to store things! Though I've never owned one those car ports are really nice.

Dang, I'm a slow typer. Two replies in the time to type my response.

I'd agree though. No sense in rushing. It took me a long time, but I got the best one I'd seen. With all the could be issues I'd make it $20k
