I think that there are a couple of people who bought the Mahindra mForce version on this site. I think I remember seeing a thread on it s year or two ago.
Ford: '88 3910 Series II, '80 3600, '65 3000; '07 6530C Branson with FEL, 2020 LS MT225S. Case-IH 395 and 895 with cab. All Diesels
I bought a 2007 Korean tractor. In about 2009 I was mowing with a drum mower and hit a pile of concrete chunks and took out my right cab door. Within the week I had a new one UPS delivered to my house which my sweetie and I installed. Warehouse in Plainview, TX. had 7 in stock.
This Mahindra 2538 has a TYM chassis and a Mahindra engine. For what it's worth I was able get a cruise control module and different suspension seat shipped to the dealer in one business day after we purchased it. Mahindra has loads of these types of TYM chassis tractors sitting down at the main HQ/Distribution center off Jackrabbit Road in Houston. I drooled over all of them while looking around and talking to the Mahindra reps. My suggestion would be to check out the Mahindra version of your tractor, (assuming there might be a dealer nearby) Here is a link. mFORCE 105S | Mahindra It's probably the same offering, but with Mahindra's mCRD engine and perhaps a few other touches. The TYM branded versions come with Doosan and Yanmar engines I believe. I wonder if TYM and Mahindra have an agreement to stock/support one another's dealers with non engine parts?
Yes I noticed between these over 90hp Korean - Kioti, LS, tym, and Mahindra. They all have similar features that I wonder what the deal is over there. I thought the tym had a bit more hp.
Oh yeah I sure like that bucket grapple you got there! Is that for rocks and roots? I fixed up one of my buckets a couple weeks ago putting on heavier bucket and grapple teeth for picking up root piles on some land I'm clearing

That looks like a solid setup you have for getting under root piles. The root grapple I picked up is from Everything Attachments. Chose it for design, strength, and low weight. Single Lid Root Grapple It is the 60", single lid version. Primary use will be for root grubbing, brush removal, and deadfall cleanup. Currently it has only proven itself with moving implements, but it's a start. Are you near Edmonton, or Calgary? I was raised in Fort St. John BC and moved south for college and work. I miss the BC/Alberta Summers as well as snowmobiling this time of the year.
I made this 3pt hitch ripper tool for the roots. I have a cat coming into do the main work of clearing the brush this winter. Then I'll work at it in the spring. That bucket is pretty "tired" but I welded up pretty good so it should work. Had one my of my son's through some paint on. Located by Edmonton.
