Ed1, I am not arguing with you on the 504's capabilities. Just sorting that out first. The 504 is a 3 PLOW tractor, fact. I have never ran a 5 speed gasoline 504, but I am more than confident a diesel TA 504 will pull 3-16's. I know for a fact a diesel 504 will pull a 10' disk all day with loaded tires. I know it can (with a struggle) pull a 4 yard Reynolds scraper in 1st gear (6ft+ cutting edge). The only thing I have seen drag the diesel 504 to its knees is a 5 shank chisel plow in Louisiana clay.

1. The serial number puts it at 1962.
2. There is no I in the list I have, but a J for Rockford clutch.
3. W is for forward/reverse shuttle shift. I would buy a parts tractor just for this item to put on my 504. For using a loader it is invaluable. Buy it, if you find it too small I'll buy it from you later on (seriously).
4. Y is for 12 GPM hydraulic pump.
5. FF is for a 4.5 GPM 3-point/fast hitch pump.
4 and 5 are the most common pump options on a 504. Is this a wide front or tricycle? I would like a picture of the tractor if you end up buying it. Especially the fwd/rev unit. Finally, I'd give $3200 for it without thinking twice if it checks out mechanicaly sound with decent rubber on the rear.

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
