Tractor Sizing Jinma Crate Size

[mitchash]

Anyone know the size of the crate that a Jinma 254 comes in? What is the approx. weight? My 254 should be here next month, might pick it up with a small dump truck, would unload with winch and skidsteer. Thanks, Ash

Unfortunately it sometimes depends on the mood of the Jinma factory aswell as shipping restrictions.

We've had some arrive to the point where you could drive them out of the crate, and the last one seemed to have every last nut and bolt removed and packed tightly.

That said, a small dumb truck and winch should be suffice. If you plan to use the skidsteer forks to lift it, it will have to be a full size skid steer.

I would also keep the skidsteer around for assembly. With a fork lift, my average 254 goes by quickly. I had to do a 354 the other day when our fork lift was broken and it was an all day affair.
