So, as I mentioned in one of my previous posts, im looking to get a garden tractor for both mowing my 3 acre yard, and doing some tilling. Therefore, I need something with a rear PTO that I can hook up to. I would prefer to get a tractor with a tiller, but so far have not found many.
My options:
Wheel horse 520H, 20hp Onan: $1500
looks in solid shape, tad bit of rust, comes with a 60 inch deck, 800 hours on it
Sunstar 20hp, 20hp kohler command: $1400 or $600
I've got two options for this one a shiny clean perfect one with dual hydraulics on it for 1400, or a clean, but used one with single hydraulics and a bad alternator and worn tires.
The catch with both the sunstars, is im not sure how i would hook a tiller up to them. They've both got a splined rear pto shaft that turns, but its about a foot and a half into the chassis, so im not sure how a tiller would hook up
Power King 1614: Comes with a tiller: 1500
Only one I've found with a tiller, pretty rough shape, rusty all over but running, price seems a little high to me.
Opinions? I absolutely need a tiller as part of my buy, so for the ones that dont have tillers, i will have to drop the extra cash for both a tiller, and the additional gear needed to hook one up.
