I sold my 1991 3650 a month ago without backhoe and with standard shuttle shift and 762 hours for $10,000 with a 5' rotary cutter and a grader box.

I don't know if anyone is interested. In my search for a tractor I came across a slightly used 2001 (I think) JD 4700 with JD loader that was a repo at Hendren Equipment in Mooresville, IN. The tractor didn't meet my needs or I would have bought it. The tractor was a Hydro unit with about 360 hours on it. The bucket didn't even have the paint worn off. They were asking $19,900 and said that they would take $19,300. I don't know if it's a good price but was definitely a nice tractor.<br>

If the seller will take it back, send it back, give good feedback if he stands behind his product, but only after he leaves you feedback (so he won't stab you in the back and leave negative). Try to leave the deal on a good note. Sounds like the tractor has too many problems. Put your money toward a better tractor.

A good heavy grader box (box blade as some call it) for starters. Woods makes a nice one. A light box won't hold up and won't cut well. I use a 6' box that Massey Ferguson used to make that weighs in around 900#. I believe that either Gannon or Gill may be making it now.
Next I'd probably invest in a pulverizer. I like the one that Landpride makes in the 25 series. The tines are flat steel vs. the spikes that alot of less expensive pulverizers use. The spikes tend to either break or bend when you hit any large buried rocks.
That will get you started. After that there are all kinds of nifty attachments you could look at (Rock hound, Harley rake, etc.). Good luck.

I've got one. You are correct that Davis was a division of Case. The Davis Roadrunner was a Case 580B tractor with a trencher on the rear, backfill blade on the front, and a fixed 4 post ROPS. They were available with a D100 backhoe mounted on the front. Mine was built in 1973. I trench 12" wide and can go about 60" deep.

Quick hitch at TSC works well. I took mine off my Kubota 3650 before I sold it. The only problem with a category 1 quick hitch is that isn't much consistency for pin spacing like cat. 2 & 3. So I removed the top hook and used the included link. With this method, I only had one pin to connect after hooking the lower pins with the hitch. Well worth the money if you switch implements much. Good luck!

I know what you mean. I don't get as much tractor seat time as I used to. I build custom homes and develop land. So I've got all the toys but little time to play with them myself. Don't give up on the toys. Good luck!
