Well to make a long story short I went to look at a loader that was on a White 2-70 to put on my 1650 and ended up buying the tractor and loader.
The good is it has a little over 2500 original hrs.
2nd owner bought it about 7 years ago and bought new
16.9X38 tires,8 ply and they're 85% at least,runs good and the transmission/rear end gears look like new.Bad is I can look at the gears because the fellow took the whole cover off the rear with the hydraulic unit,uncoupled the chain on the drive shaft,removed the battery boxes and assorted other parts to 'fix' the tractor.Original problem was the tractor sat for about a year after the owner had 2 heart attacks and then only could get the trans in the low side set of gears.I'm assuming the range shifting rail is stuck maybe a big assumption anyone know of any other problems I need to look for or things to do before putting it all back together?Paid
$1800 for the tractor and loader so I guess it was an OK deal if I can get it going without too much trouble.
 
Were you able to shift transmission yet? Sounds like a good deal even with trans problem I paid more than that for a used loader. I would make sure trans lube pump is working that was one reason I had trans problem. If you have to pull engine to work on trans I would consider new bearings for engine we waited to long and it was expensive repair. Good luck I liked my 2-70. Greg
 
I'm kinda undecided what to do with the tractor right now,probably put the loader on my 1650 and maybe change the tires and wheels out.Fix it if it doesn't run into too much $$$ or just keep the parts I might need for my 1650 and sell the rest off of it.
 
Have you decided if you are going to sell any of you're 2-70 parts? I'm needing some cosmetic parts for mine. Would be interested in buying rest of tractor if you part it out.
