A dear friend who recently passed had B6200 4wd, manual tractor that he used to pull trailers and non-running small cars about his yard. I may end up following me home and I have a few rookie questions.

While it starts quite reliably, it has some character issues that I suspect might require attention.

First, the steering has a huge amount of play before it actually turns the front wheels and the turning circle is gigantic. Is this normal or is there some common issue that can be repaired without great expense?

The clutch does not seem to be doing much as it clashes when going into gear with teh clutch depressed and it sounds like the throwout bearing is crappy. Are parts readily available to refresh the clutch?

The rear 3 point hitch seems to operate OK. There is nothing attached to it at the moment and the tractor appears to have no attachments. Can things like a 48" mid mount cutting deck generally be found?

Could a front mount or rear mount bucket or backhoe be added to it?
