Hi, I am new to tractors - we mainly grow things in greenhouses but decided to expand outside to a couple of acres of vegetable cultivation, and also need something to mow a couple acres of grass.
I found an older John Deer 1530 that was used on a horse farm mainly for hay moving. It runs pretty well, and my only concern is it has kind of an odd bucket on it - it is smaller and also only has one ram for tilt.
Two questions:
1) Does this bucket suck?
2) If so, can it be replaced with a larger one without a major retrofit (e.g. new rams)
