After a lot of help from this forum, and some serious shopping, I've decided on a JD 2210, with 210 FEL. Implements seem a bit salty at the local JD dealer.. but I could be mistaken since I've not really shopped around for those, yet. I believe I've read here where the 3PH is a catagory 0/1.
Recomendations (brand, model, aproximate price, size, etc) on the following, please:
Box scraper.
Post hole digger - 9". (I believe it needs to be short)
Rake.
Thanks.

KingKutter has an XB line that is catagory 0/1 for the box blade and rake. Worksaver or Farmstar has a catagory 0/1 post hole digger. You are right, it needs to be short. Itegrated engineering has a high lift kit for sub-compacts. If you can get ain touch with them, this lift kit might help the limited lift the sub-compacts have.
Enjoy you mew tractor!!! ....

Thanks.. I know the JD dealer has the Worksaver post hole diggers. I think he quoted around $800. Seemed a bit steep to me.
Any suggestions on where I can find any of the brands you mentioned?

We often use Bush-Hog for much of our shortline equipment and find it well built. They do have equipment in the 0/1 catagory like what your tractor needs. ....

Tracor Supply has the KingKutter line. Most of the time the XB sized implements have to be ordered, but I have noticed they are stocking more of it. KingKutter is an affordable line of implements that carry some quality issues to keep the cost competetive. I believe Worksaver and Farmstar are the same implements. The $800 you were quoted for the Worksaver PHD is exactly what I was quoted a couple years ago when I had a sub-compact, but I believe it was limited to a 36" auger. ....

Frontier brand (sold through John Deere dealers) has box blades, rear blades, rakes, phd's, tillers, spreaders, etc... sized for the sub-CUTs. I'm somewhat surprised that your dealer didn't point you in that direction, mine was certainly pushing the Frontier brand. ....

beagle - Do you have contact info for "Itegrated engineering"? I tried that spelling as well as "Integrated Engineering" and got buried, but couldn't find what appeared to the the right people. A co-worker has a bx2200 and has problems with many 3ph impliments. Maybe this would help him. ....

I recently purchased a Woods PHD25, 9" auger by 30" long for $800. I was quoted a Land Pride for $860. The Woods PHD works well on by BX2200. ....
