Looking at the case 430 for sale in the photo ads and seriously considering a purchase. I have never own a case machine before and have a few questions. what is the HP of this tractor? are they generally a reliable tractor? are parts easy to come by? is this tractor considered a utilty tractor? can the exhaust be swept down (back) instead of up? I have many young trees that I have to drive under.
Lastly--would this be the tractor to use to help mow down and maintain 8 acres of rolling (sometimes steep) heavly overgrown land with many trees? Will also be using the tractor to plow, maybe till if it will go slow enough, a small garden and to help clear snow in the winter.

At the asking price and transportation costs I am getting close to what I can buy a front mount-zero turn-mower (used), so I am trying to make a decision before I travel to look at the tractor.

Thanks for all you help and thoughts!!

I have a case 430 - diesel - makes upwards of 38 hp. I use it to pull a 6' bush hog and have no problems - wide wheel base and very stable. Starts, runs and just plain works. My exhaust is dropeed down and run out the back original. I know on the exhaust header there is a blind flange on top of mine - so I would think that there should be a blind flange on the bottom of that one - ready to reroute the exhaust. I can send pictures if you like.

I bought mine for $3500 four years ago. It seemed like a good $/hp deal in my neck of the woods.

i'm partial towards case tractors and have found them to be very reliable. The 430 came in many
styles,this probably would be a utility. it has a
188 ci engine, not sure of hp but will probably
handle what you have described.you could reroute
the exhaust. the problem with the ztr is that you can only use it for mowing.the 430 is a little overpriced,i think but thats up to the buyer and seller to determine.there is also a nice 311 on the photo adds for half the price. good luck
