For what it is worth, if there is a hole in the market area they are giving the compacts in red and not the super-steer's to Case-IH dealers. Another critera is they don't already have two lines of compacts.

Gary where did you find that deere has better resale value than the Kubota's? Just looking at the literature to compare the two Kubota has to it's advantage larger tires, larger lift capacity on three point, larger ground clearence and more weight, the drive for the front axle is straight with no u-joints and the Kubota has wet brake's vs dry for longer life, the Kubota has over running clutches on the pto so it is easier to shift with the mower or tiller on. The loader on the kubota lifts more and does it higher by more than a foot. I won't get into the rest of the benefits of the Kubota because they are small pluses compared to the work performance differences I've mentioned. Those dealers have to sell the 790's they have in stock as well as the Kubota's and they will find someone to buy them. Quota's Quota's Quota's.

Gary, I snow blow with a rear mounted 60" Lucknow on a gear 1910 Ford. Going slow enough is the problem- a hydrostatic transmission would be ideal. A creeper range would be second best. As it is, I have to sometimes slip the clutch or take less than a full bite. The uneveness of the snow depth from drifting would be perfect for a hydrostatic. The Ford 1910 has a 2- stage clutch and that helps to prevent clogging/shearing pins somewhat.

I have a 284 International. It runs well. I bought it with a Woods Belly mower so the 3-point hitch was missing. Specifically I am looking for a 3-point hitch. I notice some other members have mentioned this tractor. I was wondering if anyone knows if there are common parts for this tractor and the Cub Cadet since, at least I think, they are/were sold under the IH brand. The 284 gas engine is a Mazda; I think the new Cub Cadets are Mitsubishi. Also I have not been able to confirm who manufactured the 284. Possibly it was Satoh which was later sold to Mitsubishi, I think. Does anyone know if there are common parts between the 284 and Satoh or Mitsubishi tractors? Does anyone know if there is a fairly reliable source of parts for this tractor? The case/international dealers I've talked to are kind of hit and miss. Any information would be helpful.

Michigander--I am also wondering about the effectiveness of a rear discharge when compared to an air-tunnel side discharge. My concern is similar to yours--will the rear discharge rear mower have enough lift to raise the grass AFTER running over wet or damp grass with all four tractor tires and would sure appreciate hearing from those with rear discharge mowers in that regard.

Get it all at once. I purchased a Kubota with FEL,Disk,PH,Cutter and boxblade. You can finance it all at once and the rates are low with Kubota was 6.9% and so far I am happy with what I purchased. It is a lot of money and my first tractor took me 42 years to get it so I got it all.Plus my dealer gave me 10% discount by purchasing it all at once. Good Luck!!!!

Mike, I have a TC35D with an NH 84" belly mower...it was expensive but it works great. I mow around about 25 trees and the super steer/belly mower combo is the ticket.

Judd I don't know of any of our customers that have used them enough to tell what they are really like. Both of the units we have sold were to L-35 customers that wanted to go a little bigger but not to the big one's. My thoughts are they to fill a niche just like the B-21 and the L-35 by being something that has powerful hydraulics like the big one's but go where they can't. I haven't seen anyone trade one of these style tractors for a conventinal style compact with a loader b-hoe so they must be doing what they were intended to do.

As I recollect John Deere used a primerless paint process in the late 80s. The process was a failure as the paint lost adhesion and peeled off the tractor panels. There was a recall under warranty but the problem wasn't that obvious until the tractor had some age to it and beyond the warranty period. Also JD provided some financial assistance to replace the panels if the customer complained enough but I'm sure that offer ended years ago. I was one of those complaining customers.

I believe John Deere did not recommend repainting as they felt a new finish would not adhere to the metal in these panels. It may have been a problem with the steel also in addition to the paint process.

Thanks for the info Brent. I received email response from Great Bend that they do not have an application for this specific model. I would certainly like to find a good used one and save a few bucks off the price of new!

When buying a blade, be sure to consider lift height. I bought a BushHog angle/tilt/offset model and tryed to put it on my 4200 with turf tires. The 3 point pins were so high that I could hardly lift it off the ground.

Looking to move some snow? Check out this link. I saw one of these rigs on a semi on the interstate the other day and thought it was to cool. Finally traked down their web-site.

Need help with specs for valve settings and clutch set up info for pre 11000 1050 (1981). With the latest Arkansas Ice storm, I decided to do the right thing and finally do what has been needed. Clutches need to be replaced and Deere wants around $250 for each plate....ouch. We have a good brake and clutch service here and why couldn't I have these clutches resurfaced like they did my brakes???? Does anyone have any experience with this or am I the only cheap skate that thinks Deere parts are way to expensive?Any help with a site that lists specs or the valve settings would be greatly appreciated.Happy new year to all, John Camponovo in Central Arkansas
