Looking at a Super M and have some questions. (Please forgive any incorrect terms, I'm an old farm boy needing an acreage tractor.) Specifics: Super M serial SM F-49219 J - narrow front (quite wobbly w/ lots of steering wheel play) - live hydraulics (factory) - aftermarket power steering (belt drive, L side) - 3 point hitch(light weight) - drawbar mounted on rear axle - 12 volt conversion, new battery - no lights - crappy loader w/ blade, no bucket - small seep in radiator - no water/antifreeze in engine oil - no engine oil leaks, no blue smoke, starts good - might be missing, hard to tell - new rear tires, good front tires - sheet metal dented and dinged - clutch, brakes and all gears work Main uses: snow removal, light dirt work, sickle bar mower. Questions: Is it worth $1500? They were asking $2100 to start with. Not going to use that loader, think I have another to put on it. How hard is it to fix the front wheel wobble? Can the power steering leak be fixed or are parts impossible to come by? Its not a hose leak. What can you use the 3 point for? It was so flimsy looking and the pin holes were quite small. What does a 3 way valve assembly cost roughly? Wanting to have up and down pressure for loader, bucket and possibly the 3 point or other attachment. Anything else I should have checked? Thanks!
