I am looking at a used JD 670, it has MFWD, mid and rear PTOs, but, no front hydraulics and wanted to know how hard, or, how expensive would that be, to add on, and, if even still available ?

I just traded my 670 after looking for a fel for over a year.

I had a 670 growing up... great tractor.
You can get aftermarket loaders - Woods and the like still. It's going to be tough to find just the JD FEL though. As for the hydraulics, shouldn't be too terribly difficult. I think you need to take the body panels off to do it, however. So it will be at least a 1 day job.
You could go through and call equipment companies that dismantal machines too.

My JD dealer called me back, the cost of the hydraulics kit, is $2,413, that's a deal breaker, and doesn't include installing, so, I can undertand Cartod trading in, didn't know it was that hard to find, the extras, FEL, 7BH, etc., I guess when you buy these things new, you almost got to load them up, too expensive to upgrade down the road,
