Hello,

Would like opinions on a 48 HP tractor for this price?

Gear transmission. Probably not loader compatible?

Seems like a good deal for a tractor using 3 pt hitch implements like rototilling before seeding.

Your thoughts please .

TY

Kind of an unusual tractor being a narrow that isn’t loader compatible, but looks like a sweet deal if you have a use for it.

Based on your profile, appears you have other tractors for loader chores.

After watching that video today, I was wondering how long before that specific tractor was going to be asked about. Crazy that Kubota is pretty much giving them away.

Messick’s add says right in it, if you read it all, that it is NOT loader compatible.

It appears the DTN series mounts the ROPS where the loader uprights would go. On KubotaPad the LA766 is listed under options for the LA4802DTN but you would have to get all the associated parts to fit the loader and then figure out where/how to reattach the ROPS, if even possible. It is unknown (to me anyways) if the LA4802DTN comes with the hydraulic connections and controls for a FEL (I'm thinking not) but if not that's an added cost if you want to add one.

All that and no promo financing - would be a "No thanks" for me.

You didn't notice, but it has a ROPS mounted in the rear, it's just short.
You can change it out for a standard ROPS
