We need more info. Do you need front hydraulics? Can you do the installation yourself? Can you find the kit somewhere? For sure that JD won't stock it anymore.

Unfortunately JD doesn't stock many parts for their older yanmar engine tractors. so if ur thinking loader you may have to look aftermarket with a pto driven hydraulic pump .

No.

Sell the tractor you have now. Buy a 4-WD tractor with a working FEL.

Hello friends. I'm new here and I have a couple of questions. I just bought 3.5 acres in Missouri and I'm looking at a 1985 Satoh S650G Bison. It has 6166 hours, inline 4, 3 point hitch, runs well according to the seller, and it's $2750. So, 1) is that a good deal? and 2) Is there a list of loaders somewhere that would fit that tractor with little or no modification? Thanks in advance for the help.


This is a gas engine tractor. 6,000+ hours is quite a lot of use for a gas engine tractor.

Are you adept at troubleshooting and mechanical repairs? Do you have metric tools?

Parts for 40+ year old orphan-brand tractors are very thin.

Can you operate equipment with a traditional clutch and gear transmission? Shop tractor clutch rebuilds are $1,500 in low cost, rural Florida.

Manual steering gets old fast.

2-WD tractors often lack the necessary traction to fill a loader bucket with dirt.

Aftermarket Loaders are available for most tractors. I will guess your cost at $4,500 delivered.

You would likely need a new, higher capacity hydraulic pump, joystick and plumbing, +$2,000.

Plus labor for installation.
