$2750 is not necessarily too high if everything works, INCLUDING the TA. It gives two speeds in each gear, designed so that ground speed could be reduced and power increased in "hard places" without clutching. Most have either been repaired, or do not work, so check it out. They will work for years if used properly. The 560 either came with fast hitch or a drawbar. There are kits to convert fast hitch to 3-point, or if it came with no hitch, a 3-point could have been added. Fast hitch is bolted to the rear end housing, aftermarket 3-points are usually bolted to the axle housings. The brakes are easy to work on, replacement disks are readily available, but in some cases, the metal parts the disks expand against need to be resurfaced or replaced. People either love 560's or hate them, the gas version burns a lot of fuel.
