Not super common, 3 1/4" are harder to come by . Most I have seen are 9 bolt in both of these sizes . I have seen one set of 4" nine bolts , they must have been hard to keep together as any 15 size tractor has weight and grunt to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HTR sold us 3 tractors (MX 270, mtx140 and MX 230 all Euro). For the most part they own none of the tractors they have. They are old order Mennonite or Amish and don't drive vehicles. They supposedly work on these tractors for the dealership that sends them to the USA . Jesse started working for his current landlord and he took over the tractor side of the business . He sold 100 tractors two years ago I think. I think he probably owns most of this unless there is an investor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking about 2 different things? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessie started at Lancaster silo equipment and rents a barn there . HTR is totally separate from this. We came close to trying to import a MX we could have bought for 14k overseas probably around 2014 but didn't move fast enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know that htr has the best reputation here locally. 14k for a mx without shipping...that would be a broken down parts tractor here now it seems. Im guessing you just have to know what you are getting at htr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im guessing you just have to know what you are getting at htr. 14k was a tractor advertised on tractor house (I might be forgetting the exact price but this is what I remember) . Jesse said he would have arranged shipping for a small fee . I'd have been happy with that, I'd buy three at that price and salvage what I could over time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice to see a trailer pull in the driveway with the MFD and one of the row crop 1456 and the 1026 ......

SMDFarmboy24 Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Both my 706 and 806 came from Jesse. He was good to deal with. That's quite a collection up for sale, I took off of work with the intent of going to the auction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also got a 5130 from him since then. Got two dual PTO from him for Magnums recently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
