pfrederi 17,685 #1 Posted September 11, 2018 My name is Paul and I am a WH addict.. I have a problem. I have more tractors than I have needed implements for. I do not swap implements anymore each implement has its own prime mover. So I need some new different implements. So the question what is the most useful non-common (mower deck, snow plow blower) implement that you have. i may need one like it!! (Note my wife's suggestion that I get rid of some excess tractors is a non starter.) 8 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skipper 1,788 #3 Posted September 11, 2018 Guess it's also a matter of what WH it should fit, but here are a few to consider Hydraulic tip trailer? Power rake grader? Backhoe? Boxblade? Spike Harrow? 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SylvanLakeWH 25,503 #4 Posted September 12, 2018 Front mount generator... Winch - front, rear or what the heck - both... Ball hitch - front and back - for moving trailer(s) around Cup holder - for when you just want to drive one around on a summer day... 2 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankman 3,518 #5 Posted September 12, 2018 These days, not an implement, but a good sized umbrella seems to be necessary. 4 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

clueless 2,976 #7 Posted September 12, 2018 Not really an implement, but the front permanently mounted ball hitch is probably the best thing I've bought for my tractor in the past few years. With two boats, a sailboat, and a 5x10 trailer I'm constantly moving them around. I have a cervical vertebrae issue with my neck, nothing bad but turning my head far enough around when backing up trailers can be painfully. The front hitch works great, much easier to put a trailer where you want it. I put a convert-a-ball on it, makes changing ball size a matter of seconds. The older you get, the more you have to work smarter not harder. 3 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 48,801 #8 Posted September 12, 2018 Sorry Paul... not uncommon but a tub...I have no clue how the missus ever got yard work done without one! Not to mention how she used to haul parts from shed to shed! 3 hours ago, Tankman said: good sized umbrella seems to be necessary This is where @Ed Kennell throws up his pic of his sun canopy with the fringe balls! Talk about uncommon! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OK Jim, but don't forget the mid mount disc, the heated cab, and the infamous "Mad Max " front mounted tiller. 3 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

c-series don 8,676 #11 Posted September 13, 2018 Although I don't really use it, it is perhaps my most unusual implement. It's my planter, complete with all the seed plates,fertilizer hopper and row marker. I haven't seen another one that is as complete as this. I don't even have a garden!!! Next I need the mid mount 540 rpm PTO 66 that I have absolutely zero use for!!! It's just a cool rare piece. 4 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,330 #12 Posted September 14, 2018 Lots of cool suggestions here. Paul I'm glad to see you're finally facing up to your addiction. Can't believe your wife said something about getting rid of Tractors though.... Clearly is HER that has an issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 17,685 #13 Posted September 14, 2018 Some things to consider thank you all. My soil is mostly rocks bound together with clay. i have a mold board plow for a WH but never used it. My 40hp Case DC 3 works to pull a two bottom through it. The disk i have for it bounces along on the rocks even with 200 lbs of added weight. I have a rototiller on a 12hp 8 speed and it works but it is painful watching it bounce up and down on the rocks and takes many passes. The garden I have made is it and there will be no more sod busting. I have an FEL on the D200 she also has a 3pt York Rake and a 3pt 60" finish mower (which I do not use very much at all) 753 has a sickle bar C175-8 has a sweepster C120-8 rototiller C141-8 Front mount mower C120-8 Mid mount blade 310-8 has a receiver hitch and front trailer ball She also handles lawn sweeper and plugger (but that doesn't do much with all my rocks) C175-8 has Cyclone rake Charger /Electros (3) 2 snow plows and one Blower 418A Mower Charger 12 Mower ( loaned to my neighbor) Looking for work C-175-8 Charger 10 Commando 8 I have a tub trailer but do not use it much as i do not want to beat it up. I have a trailer my Father and I built over 50 years ago. (Originally towed behind a PorterCable MK26) Been modified and now is with my L107. I have a generator for the house. Thinking some kind of dump wagon may be the next project and a cup holder!!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
