I found a IH 806 for $2500. It dropped a sleeve, now how much is it going to cost to get it re sleeved and new parts? is it worth the money and work? I was told that its 86hp

 

good tractors, weak *** hydraulics......check around on www.fastline.com and a few other sites to see what good running ones are going for.....

 

I wish I had the $$$ for that, I want to build a pulling tractor and that is cheap enough to get a good start since the motor would get completely reworked anyway

 

yeah for a roller it would be worth it for that, but i doubt it would be worth it for a field tractor.....

 

tractorhouse.com is another good site to look at that stuff.

 

They make good grinder/auger tractors. My uncle has two of them and they work great for that, the hydrolics are very weak as mentioned above though.

 

yeah, they are great for a running a hay grappler too, we mostly used my buddies for a grapple tractor and a PTO tractor, Oooohhh and they wont pick up 1977 Ford LTD's with a bale spear though.........just thought id let ya know that.........
