JD 2210 broken PTO....how bad is it?

[barry1me]

Guys I have a friend of a friend thats selling a 2004 2210 with FEL and ballast box with 350 hours on it for $6500 but the PTO doesnt work. The owner said his brother his a rock with the brush hog and the PTO doesnt work anymore. Im looking for a cheap tractor and wondering how bad of a repair this would be to fix, and how much money to get going.

I saw that tractor advertised on CL today with the disclaimer: "I don't know exactly what parts need to be replaced or at what cost to fix the pto. I'M SELLING THIS TRACTOR "AS IS" with NO WARRANTY OR RETURNS!! "

To know the cost you'll have to know what part(s) broke. If you can't see the damage that means the problem is somewhere inside the back half of the tractor. Until you start troubleshooting and taking things apart there is no way to really know what you are buying into. If a shaft or gear is busted inside and you end up paying someone for repairs it probably won't be a cheap tractor anymore.

You've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya?...............

So Barry,

I thought you came to the conclusion that a SCUT is just too small for your needs? The Deere 2210 is a SCUT, you'd be really sorry if you put more into a tractor than its worth. Especially if it is too small to fulfill your needs.

im just trying to find a cheap loader....a scut would work great for 99% of what I need there is just a price point im trying to hit. If money were no object I would go pickup a 1026r with FEL for about $13k right now....I still love that tractor. SCUT, CUT, or Skid loader I dont really care just looking for a cheap loader to do a hand full of jobs around the house each year.

So Barry,

Something like this would be way nicer than a SCUT loader. No rear 540 PTO to worry about either!

I talked to this guy the other day, sounds like it has a bad headgasket(coolant loss), and has a sticky hydro on right side. Im going to talk to him next week and see what he says.
