I am super new to tractors and I am looking to purchase something to help me with grading, back filling, etc during a house build, and then snow clearing and other misc. tasks on a few acres once the house is complete. 

I found a D14 in my area, however in the ad the seller notes that the tractor has a 3 pt hitch, but without arms. 

This is a photo of the rear of the tractor. 

What parts would I need to get so I could use a grader blade or a snowblower?  Is it even possible?  Without the arms in place would the hydraulics for lift be present on the hitch/tractor as is or would I need to run additional hydraulics?

Thanks!

I am near Ottawa.

If I purchased the tractor I would be interested in the conversion kit. 

What are you selling them for?

wife would toss it in if you bought a D-14 off me.....

...so gotta think up a price...yer 5.5 hrs away...

Amazing, thanks. 

With the proper terminology I was able to do some searching and the whole situation is a lot more clear now. 

Thanks again. 

The float fees on the tractor would probably make me cry.  It is too bad you aren't closer, I wouldn't hesitate to come take a look at one of yours.

I was looking at some 3 point conversions and it looks like the draw bar on the tractor isn't the standard one and there are some extra bits of metal below the PTO near the bar.  I'm wondering if that might cause me issues with the conversion kit.

Yes, that draw bar is homemade... I have 2 or 3 real ones collecting rust, er ,dust, here.

When I removed the loader from 'Troy', I made a 'carry-all' which has a 2" receiver on it. I put a sleeve in ( 2" ball for trailer tugging, empty to use as a drawbar ). carry-all has removable (ugh..) 5000# forklift forks on it.

 Will take pictures of the 'adapter' tomorrow,hopefully after I 'acquire' several loads of 'ponypoop'.

Make sure it doesn't jump out of either second or third gear. Transmission repairs are very expensive.

The first is a VEE shaped lower arms with the bail built into the end that replaces your present drawbar... and two arms that connect up to your lift arms... you still need a TOP LINK for the 3 point.

Second type is a bracket that bolts to the tractor  / drawbar and then has two individual lower links that pin to it... and again two arms that connect to your lift arms.

Thanks for that.  I was looking at kits and the second style I could find in my area, but thanks to your info I realize it isn't going to work.  If I went with the VEE shaped kit would that include everything I need to get me to the point where I could use standard 3 point hitch accessories?

Sounds good, thanks. 

Is there a handy used buyers guide kicking around anywhere for me to reference?

This is the place for your used buyer's guide.  There is a lot of knowledge here.  I personally have 3 D14s and absolutely love them.  Unfortunately, AC was late joining the 3 point hitch game.  The D15 (which succeeded the D14) had a 3 point as an option, but was pretty flimsy.  For a good rugged 3 point hitch set up, you would want a Series 4 D17 - a considerably larger and more expensive tractor.

I have a CNC version of the '3 holed top link bracket' here,well 3 really....

Also a snap coupler read blade, wife says I don't need....a 3 furrow plow, wife says I don't need, a 5' rototiller, wife says I don't need, a ?-version subsoiler, the wife says I don't need, a 9 tooth cultivator, wife says i don't need and of course 3 D-14s, yes, the wife says I don't need....
