I'm looking for a Ford 768a or b loader  and a Ford 105a tiller for my Ford 1210 tractor.
Already have a few other implements for it but, those are two I've always wanted.
Kind of a hobby for me, used to collect Fieros, down to two now.   Bought this tractor new on my birthday in 1988 and have a lot of fun playing with it.   Simply looking to expand it's capability.   I really don't expect to find what I want on a motorcycle web site but...........................
If you know of either item, give me a shout.

These implements are needed to occupy my time when I can't ride my Valkyrie.

Wish I could,

But they're the wrong color

Well, one never knows if one doesn't ask.

I wouldn't know about the color, I have a Deere skid loader that is Cat yellow.

I use the bucket as a blade.

What category is the rear hitch ?

I don't know of any in the area, but, haven't been paying attention lately. I'll keep an eye out.

As would I if, I had that bucket loader.     My understanding is that there was an optional blade offered for the bucket loader but, I've never seen one so, I'm working off of rumor on that.

What category is the rear hitch ?

I don't know of any in the area, but, haven't been paying attention lately. I'll keep an eye out.

The Ford 1210 has a Cat 1 rear hydraulics lift linkage with a standard fixed draw bar.

Appreciate any and all assistance.   It's not like I can't live without these implements.    It's kind of like that set of Tonka trucks I had as a kid (still have them as a matter of fact), wanted the complete set with all the goodies................      Thought about buying a 50" snow blower implement for it but, you have to have the loader frame to mount it to and I don't have that.    That would have been a real waste of money though, we simply don't get enough of the white stuff to make that worthwhile.   

But, I can use the blade, bucket loader, tiller, mower, rear hoist, platform and sprayer unit with a lot of my other projects I want to do.     At least, the reason (excuse) many haven't been done is because I don't have the necessary attachments.   It's my story and I'm sticking to it. 

[Patrick]

Ill keep an eye open. Those attachments don't last long around.

I've used a rear mount blower for a short time and that was way too much time. They are a royal PITA, but, thats just my opinion.

Oops, you said blower and I read mower.   Sorry about that.

Really?   I have had both, rear and belly mowers for my Ford 1210, both have advantages and disadvantages IMHO.   I prefer the rear PTO shaft driven Woods I currently have on it.   The belly mower was a PITA to put on and take off and wasn't worth a darn in the corners of fence lines.   Just my opinion.   The rear mount Woods mower goes on and off in just a minute or two.

Yeah, if I had a snow blower, it would have to be a front mounted version.

Patrick was talking about a blower.  I was in the market for that for my Kubota as we can get some serious snow dept here - Have had a snow over 40" and two that were over 30.  Snows like that, you need some serious equipment.  The Exploder can handle snow up to 20" if you put chains on it but that itself is a PITA. Now I have the Kubota with front and rear blades, mower underneath and front loader.  Not as fast to move snow as a truck with a blade but it can handle deeper snow.  The Kubota mid mower works fine, not hard to install or remove if you're careful.  Has the drive-over ability. I don't need the rear PTO mower.  From what I've read, reviews and youtube videos, a rear blower is a pain to use.  The front ones are expensive and a hassle to install but easier to use.  I'll just get by with the blade.  Have experience with blades on trucks, used to run a snow plowing business in WI.  I did that during the horrible winter of '79.

Fixed the post you were referencing.   Thanks for catching that.

My BIL has a front mounted snow blower on his Kubota.   He loves it for deep snow but some of his driveway is gravel and that means he has to be very concerned with where he directs the chute or, cover your windshield.  

[Patrick]

Ooops. Yep, I read blower instead of mower didn't I.  Sorry, don't know how I managed that but I did. But, they are still a PITA.

Belly mowers are great. Because of the front loader frame I can't use one on the Kubota so I use a Woods 3 point hitcher and like it.

[Rams]

OK here's a bump, just in case.

One never knows if they don't ask.
