Hi,
Have seen a Bolens G174, 4wd, 835hrs with mower and heavy duty snowblower for sale for $5500 Cdn ( aksing )
Know is Deisel, presumably 17 hp.

Does anyone know anything about these tractors and if this is a half decent price ?
Has PTO for the mower\blower so is it a 540 PTO ?
Know nothing about these tractors.

Can you get loaders for these and any idea of cost involved ?

Any details on this tractor would be appreciate.

Thanks
Tom

I have a G174. Depending on when it was made it's either a 2cyclinder or 3cylinder. Both are diesels. Mine is a 3cylinder. It has 3 pto speeds, and yours is a 4x4 (hence the 4 after the 17). It's also 17hp.

These are stout tractors. There's a real good yahoo room for Bolens Iseki tractors.

I think the price is high though that you quoted.

I've got the iseki TX1500 which is the same thing as the G174 except mine is only two wheel drive.

Mine has a loader, and it's very useful. The 4wd would definately be nice if only for the reason that it gives you a little beefier front axle and, therefore, more lift capacity for the loader. I'm sure that the traction is helpful too.

I'm surprised just how far that 17HP will go. It's a tough little tractor that will do a lot of stuff. I got mine with the loader and a tiller for about $4,000 US, but the guy was in a bit of a hurry to get rid of it. Mine was also in really good shape... Good paint, no mechanical issues, etc.

If you're getting a mower and snow blower with it, I'd say $5,500 Cdn is about average. It depends on the condition of the tractor and the market in your area.

It has a standard 540 pto. Loaders are available. Email me for pricing.

I believe that you will find that these models were manufactured from 1978-1981 so the 1990 is not accurate.

I don't believe there were any Bolens/Iseki models from the 90's. Iseki started building Massey Fergusons in the early 90's.
