there is at least one that is available in reversable model - cat 1 mount. don't remember which name as was just cruising for cat 1 attachments.

Before the day of front end loaders, those 3 point scoops were used for everything....a LOT of basements were dug with a 3 point scoop.

Mines reversible, you can use it foreword or backwards...

I don't doubt that one bit. That thing is rarely used anymore because we do have 3 other tractors with FEL's on them. Sometimes you just need a small nimble tractor though.

^ something like this is what want after I sell the hoe I posted earlier. This may be the dumbest question in the thread but how is that thing on the yard?

I want to buy something that I can use all over my property without tearing it up to much. Obviously won't be truckin through the yard when its wet.

The 5400 is around 7k to 8k lbs with loaded tires and loader. it does ok in the yard - i don't go after a hard rain.

When it comes to tractors, wimpy tires = no yard damage... Get some aggressive tires and everything changes!

I don't know about that. Cab on the deutz here has saved me from getting "branched" before. Plus, sudden rain, etc, and place to store stuff.

Ya it is nice sometimes,but I had a loader with no cab for years and got used to easy on off. I guess the grass is always greener haha

Got her out and running after sittingfor 3 years. Carb had to be clcleaned. Gas smelled like varnish. Only will start if the fuels turned off at the filter though. Then open it up and she runs great. Not sure whats going on there.

Not enough Farmalls in this thread.....Heres my 460

Redfin? RC 30, or bigger, though I doubt you'd need the RC-80 or 100. LGP tracks make a huge difference, and are all season without hassles.

I have several tractors I use to collect and gather my fire wood.

This 1954 Massey Harris Pacer is small enough to get around in some tight spots in th ewoods with out clearing a bunch of trees and brush away. The Blade comes in handy to push brush in nice rabbit piles too. does a good job with the snow also.





The 1951 model 30 will pull bigger trees out in a hander area to cut them and also runs the front mounted buzz rig very well/



When you need real pulling power the 1949 55 or the 1957 555 is the answer.

The loader on the 1961 Allis D17 is on the light duty side but will pick up some big hunks of wood to load in the trailer that woods splitting isn't a option.

The old Ford 641 with my old stump grinder on it. Sold the stump grinder a couple years ago.



This is the little trailer I use behind the 641.



Some times you have to get creative with small loads, Joe
