    Any experience with construction attachments brand of third function?

    My dealer is entering the build of my tractor for delivery and suddenly tells me they don't have a Land Pride third function kit available. They've been trying to get it since March supposedly. They can substitute a construction attachments kit. Not sure how dumb of an idea this is. Any thoughts?
