Too late for that Big Mike! Ever since I beat you to the donation box...... even Tom thought mine was better.... and faster. He told me. Try again next year!

Re: Leaking Hydro
Good job on the repair. I didn't know that these "newer" tractors were cursed with the leaky gasket. The diy brackets look good too. I should probably do that....but I probably won't.
Good to see you again... and don't be such a stranger.

Re: First mow pics
Sounds like a good plan Ken. I like the WD idea, we have some at work so I set out four cans to take home. Maybe instead of spraying....I will make a dunk tank. Might need a few more gallons....not a problem!

Re: First mow pics
Got the vacuum hooked up. It works ok.....It doesn't help that my mower deck has about zero lift. I would say it grabbed 60 percent of the bean pods I was aiming for. I only used it in in one section of my yard and filled one can. I will probably do a different section each week for a few weeks. The...

Oh man Dave.... that sucks! Were you able to finish hooking it up? How are you feeling now? I hate messing with mower decks. Especially the 60 inch. I'd almost rather pull the motor out..... honestly. Hopefully your all better now!

Yes the old stuff has it's "charm"! Most of us probably have these old tractors for one reason....we don't mind the occasional project. Lol. Don't climb under and get all oiled up for us. Just kick that 147 to the curb and let me know when....I will be right there. Lol. Does it have electric lift?
