I'm in the market for a better tractor. One with over 60hp, cab. Better hydraulics.

I really like the looks and specs on the 180,185,190,190xt.

What's the possibility of finding one with a snap coupler hitch?

What's it take to swap in the arms and bell from say a d17?

If you find an early 190, some of them had factory snap coupler hitches. I have a one ninety gas with factory snap coupler, and have seen a few others.

D-17 series 4 snap-coupler parts will fit on 170-175-180-185. D-19 or 190 parts for the larger frame tractor.

Could you convert a 200 to sc with the D19 parts?

The lift arm cylinders pin to the axle in a different place. If the upper (D-19 location) anchors have the holes drilled in them, everything should fit. I just don't remember if they drilled the holes or not because they aren't used on a 200.

Should have asked before I committed in a 190xt then. But I'm pretty happy anyway!

As always, thanks doc
