for my 550. Backhoe has been a good rig but now sits idle most of the time. Since no more digging is needed only loader work would the 550 be a good candidate? I am aware of front spindle concerns.

Your thoughts?

We've always had a 550 loader tractor on the farm. We also have a 550 with backhoe.

I am new to this forum. What happened to her?
I would be interested in a backhoe for my 550 or indeed the whole rig if you still have it?

I agree with ShepVa. That 550 just would not do what you need it to (course they are good little loader tractors). Just think, having to take the loader on a off for tillage, awkward in tight spaces.. If you need any help with good "reasons" to "justify" this purchase, just ask:)

I think this is a good oppertunity to get another tractor :-)

Like an 1850 with a loader like mine.....

You can never have too many tractors, and this sounds like an excuse to go shopping...

Let me know how your head feels after you tell the boss ..... .
