Jason,
I think I see the dilemma here. You have found a 9N that you want and you"re looking for reasons to justify buying it. The folks have done their best to tell you to forget it. I"ll tell you the same. A 9N Ford is about as useless as teats on a boar hog...and especially for what you need. Walk away and forget you ever found it.
Spend some time shopping around...you may have to drive some distance to find the machine you NEED.
B&D gave you the straight poop on mechanical requirements....heed that advice to the letter.
I have searched for years to find a JD 900HC. I was thinking they were more on the lines of an offset 950 instead of the 850. Regardless of which, they"d be my first choice, based on my prior experience with the 1050. Had JD built an offset on the 1050, it would have been the ne plus ultra of one row cultivating tractors.
Although it hasn"t been mentioned, it appears that cash outlay is of a concern. I think for what you need.....you can expect to spend $5,000 and from there, the sky is the limit. The 9N is not a bargain for your uses at $500.

Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
