buying used -- loader and tractor separately

[jimg]

Hi,
Ive been investigating the purchase of a used 2120 lately and found that some of the nicest come w/o a loader (which is on the 'must have' list of attachments). Do you think its wise to buy the two separately? So far I havent found any 7309s by themselves but maybe Im looking in the wrong place. What do you think?

Just thinking out loud... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I'm trying to think of how a used loader would become available. IOW, people don't buy just a loader, without having a tractor to connect it to. So, to 'create' a used loader, the tractor to which it was once attached must have either been sold separately, or it died separately. I'd imagine a used loader would be hard to find.

OK, just checking to be sure there wasnt something I missed. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Thanx

Im sure there are brand X loaders made for the 2120 that could be purchased separately from the tractor. Anyone know anything about them?

I don't know a lot about them but when I was looking at chinese tractors everyone suggested either Koyker or bushhog/greatbend for those tractors.. Good luck /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Thanx...I had a look at the Koyker and Great Bend web sites. Looks like this might be an option.
