Picking up a B8200 locally this week. The tractor has had a relatively easy life aside from being stored outside and being used very infrequently. I was lucky enough to find a gentleman parting out a B8200 with a blown motor and ironically enough, he had a BF300-A loader up for grabs. I made the trek this morning to grab the loader and will be picking up the tractor later this week. I used to have a B7200 until I sold it several years ago to a friend, and ever since then I regretted it, so this one will be a keeper.

The tractor will get cleaned up and all filters and fluids will be changed out, then the loader will be mounted as soon as I order up the rest of the subframe hardware.

Good looking tractor and good on you for locating a loader!

Where did you get the shackles that fit in the stake pockets?

You said it had an easy life.. You DIDNT SAY it ran..
Actually, sitting outside & not getting used ARE ABOUT THE WORST THINGS that can happen to a tractor..
You better make darn sure she purrs like a kitten before you mount that loader..
Its not fun crawling over, under & around one, to work on the engine.
Good luck w/ your project..

I think you should probably junk your "new" tractor! I mean look at that seat; It's rurnt! Comments like that is what a brewskie (or too) will do for/two you! Also-Look at my profile, triple digit posts as of tonight! Yea, I'm a cheap date.
