The FDR2572 is the top of the line finisher. Beefier frame and larger gearbox than the FDR1672. About a 2.5k difference if I am not mistaken.

Thank you. Does anyone know if wheel spacers a needed or available for the L3560 to put chains on the back tires? I am not sure if I would need the extra width for stability. (My property has a lot if hills) but I wasn't sure is chains would clear the inner fender with the R4 tires?

I don't want to buy a box blade until I know what width my tires will be. I think the width is about 70 1/2" from sidewall to sidewall right now.

Wow , I cant help but comment here .. Thats an amazing price for a Grand L 3560 and with the 3rd function option , The difference in loader spec is very very minimal ( like a couple hundred pounds) .. sure wouldnt keep me from buying it , . My guess is its sold now anyway . A 2016 is no different than a 2019 . Those tractors will last a lifetime

I did purchase the tractor. They delivered it Friday. Played around... I mean did some work over the weekend.:D I got the rear tired filled with beet juice this morning. That made a huge difference. I have been doing some fire wood and dirt work hand having a little fun getting to know the tractor.

Thanks to everyone for there input.
