Traded in the New Holland Boomer 3050 For a New Holland T4.75

[Utopia Texas]

Thanks for the info Utopia. It wouldn't leave much room for tire wear either. What size tires do you have on the front? I wonder if there's an option to get a different tire size front and back to make it higher.

The front tires I received are 280/85R24
Use your acetylene torch and cut 6" off the legs on the racks!

Or just lay a couple 2x12's in front of the rack on top of each other, for the front tires to drive up on. Keep it simple.

the ramp might work for the 2 to 4 inches, stuff on top only gets moved spring and fall

There are two other items I like about this T4.75 tractor that on my Boomer 3050 irritated me to no end.

On the T4.75 I can get off the seat and exit the tractor without putting the parking brake on, the range selector in neutral and the gear selection in neutral......and the unit only alarms for 3-5 seconds and the engine keeps running. On the Boomer 3050 with CVT Transmission if I got off the tractor with the engine running and not apply the brake the engine would quit and it would audibly alarm forever. I get off my tractor constantly when picking up pecan limbs, inspecting insect traps or marking trees and having to apply and disengage the brake lever 30-40 times a hour was a hassle. I am mature enough, 61 years old, that I do not need some stupid alarm to let me know the tractor may creep/roll in neutral if not on level ground.

On the T4.75 I can place the PTO lever between regular PTO and Eco PTO and still rotate the PTO shaft by hand in order the connect the PTO shaft from any rear mounted implement. On the Boomer 3050 the PTO shaft would lock in a fixed position with the motor off and sometimes it was a huge hassle to rotate the implement PTO shaft to match especially with a spring loaded shaft collar. I am a happy camper so far......

Stop it, Utopia. You're making me wish I had bought the T4.75.

Now you are making me feel bad. I forgot to tell everyone that the "buy one T4.75, get one free" sale ended at 5 pm earlier today! :drink:
