Looking for Small Tractor/Loader

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Question: I just sold my I-40 Loader/Backhoe- I know it went to good use, very sad to see my first Allis go.
However I had used it for what I intended and too large to keep around.
Looking for advise on smaller tractor with loader and possible 3 point.
I have seen some Allis 5020 (however heard the engines are hard to find parts for)
Been looking on CL and saw - Case 648 loaders, Yanmar, etc.
I think I would prefer a little gas engine I am more familiar with those never had diesel engine so not sure on those.  I know get more HP out of them but want to keep this a less expensive project.
I am looking for a project - I loved my I-40 project and it came out great.
Of course need to get one that needs work for low cost.

Any suggestions on makes. models...
I have an 1966 Sears Suburban tractor would love to find a little loader for it.
I just need one to move top soil and mulch around the yard now- nothing large or heavy to move.

Thanks in advance..

	Hi, I just listed my Dad's D-14 on the local Craigslist. It might suit your needs. Give me a call if you're remotely interested. Cell 321 693-1280 thanks and good luck. Charlie http://potsdam.craigslist.org/grd/3353573082.html

	Whatever you look at be sure it has power steering ! My #1 D-14 had a loader on it and was a BEAR to turn! #3 D-14 has a loader(#140) though I've never used it yet.. There's a D-14 locally for $3000 with loader (power dump as well as up/down) that has power steering..... hth jay .
	3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112 Kubota BX23S lil' TOOT( The Other Orange Tractor) Never burn your bridges, unless you can walk on water

	"easygoin" Jay has an excellant point. My Dad's does have power steering. I drove my Dad's tractor for the first time yesterday to check out the new clutch, pressure plate, and throwout bearing. It's a pretty cool machine. Dad loved this old tractor -- I guess because he could work on it and fix anything. (probably couldn't do that with a new Kubota) Dad did mechanic work his entire life. Me --- not so much.
