    Landtrac 280DTC

    I'm looking at a used 280 w/FEL with 572 hrs, asking price 6995.00, looks in good conditon, however I noticed a site glass on the rear housing (left of PTO shaft) for fluid level, I'm assuming hydraulic fluid, there was no fluid in the glass. Does the tractor and/or PTO need to be running to...

    Long 280

    Any input out there on a Long 280? I found one with 572 hrs. and the asking price is 6995.00. I know nothing about these tractors, however I did read that the company had money problems, but was back in business. The machine seems in good shape and I think the engine was Korean. There is a...

    JD 790 or Massey 1529

    Ok, I'm ready to buy a new one. I'm down to the John Deere #790 or the Massey #1529. The Massey sure felt smooth and I think the loader will lift more. But, it seems JD is pretty bullet proof and holds value well. I would appreciate any feed back. I'm tired of looking! Yes the #1529 will...

    JD 4310 w/ loader

    Allan, thats a good question, my math was off, it is more like half that. This tractor thing has me wacked out. I'm thinking used tractors are not the way to, unless you know the seller.

    JD 4310 w/ loader

    Thanks for the response. It is the 3 pt hitch adjustable link. I guess they could have backed into something, but its bent bad. My fear is that it was turned over on that side and that it did something to the bearing seals. I do not know anything about the new tractors, so I'm not sure what...
