North Cackelacky...FINALLY.
Tractor
None right now...
Posted an ad wanting to trade my 1998 Dodge 2500 4x4 diesel for a tractor.
Guy responded this morning wanting to trade a JD 2155 with a 175 loader.
Not a lot of specifics as yet beyond he is the second owner and it is 2wd.
Sent some pics,looks clean and appears to be all there.

Asked about hours but not much else.

So,what do I need to know about this tractor?
What should I look out for?
If he does want to trade,I might try having a mechanic go along and take a look at it.

Thanks

By all means... drag your mechanic buddy along! Don't know off-hand what either parts of the trade are worth - the truck or the tractor! That'd be a first place to start with me.

Check out Used Tractors For Sale at TractorHouse.com: John Deere Tractors, used farm tractors and farm equipment, tractors for sale, Case IH, New Holland, Agco, Kubota and Used Farm & Agricultural Equipment - John Deere MachineFinder for some ballpark ideas on the tractor price range. Maybe New Cars, Used Cars, Car Reviews and Pricing - Edmunds.com and New Cars, Used Cars, Blue Book Values & Car Prices - Kelley Blue Book for how much your truck is worth (you may know... but the tractor guy might not have a clue).

Check the usual - blow-by on the engine, clutch function and pedal freeplay, range shift and tranny shift and stay in gear, tie rod ends sloppy, tires - ok, loader arms straight and pins not too sloppy - no welds, hyd cylinders dry, pto works - shifts in and out - ok, .....

Good luck,
