Hi John

I use tractors for 40 years I should not have
courage to design and fix a 3 point hitch.
Why reinvent the wheel.

Dependig of money available I suggest at least
a MF 65 or 165 preferably diesel the gas model
is gas hungry on hard works. Under 3000 hours
of operation. You will have live hydraulics
position control - live PTO - power steering-
differential lock - slide adjutable rear wheels
width. If little more money is available you can add loader - heated/conditionned cab.

Fords - John Deere and other poular tractors
same size and 1960 and after with above mentionned
specs are good too. I hope you're kidding when
you mention a plow for your pick-up !
You can have a good "tractor plow for $100-$
200 or less.

If you are new to farming you will have plently
to learn farming. Farming and tractoring is a life long experience. I suggest you begin with a ready
to use good tractor. Then you will have time for the rest.

It is my humble opinion

Good luck

Joe Ferguson

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
