Darrell, I to am looking at the new compact tractors. At first I was leaning real hard towards the JD line up but I wanted to keep an open mind about them and I stopped by the local Kabota Dealer. He also carried the NH brand and was very helpful. What I found was even the smallest NH is designed basically like the largest tractors. they dont have subframes that you have to worry about bending in half or bolting up an extra frame to. The JD Dealer said that in order to use a backhoe I would have to install a big frame rail to stiffen up the tractors existing frame or it would bend. Then if you wanted to put in a belly mower you would have to take all of it off. This is way to much work for me. The Kabota had the same frame problem. and they have an aluminum differiential case and transmission housing. The NH is cast iron.
If anyone has more information please let me know.
