cstempert 27 #1 Posted November 26, 2014 (edited) Has anyone tried? I found a 418A with complete hydro to update my 416-8 I checked parts a while ago and there were many to change so getting a complete parts tractor is a much better option I use my 416 for grass and leaf collection on my extremely hilly 2 acres and a hydro would be a welcome addition just don't have room for both and the 416 is in very good shape The other option is to buy it fix it for my son who's coming of "grass cutting" age but not qualified enough to operate the gear tractor on our terrain and make room for it Edited November 26, 2014 by cstempert Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JERSEYHAWG / Glenn 4,487 #4 Posted November 26, 2014 Just a question. Does your 416 have the pressure lubricated engine? For those hills? Asking cause my 416 doesnt,, I never liked to use it on my very hilly 2 acres. Thats why I bought the 5xi. Sorry to be off topic. Glenn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cstempert 27 #5 Posted November 27, 2014 Steve. Here's the 416 Jersey. It's an '89 with the Onan performer so it's pressure lube. It runs great, cuts well and more importantly stays together I spent almost as much time repairing a 96 Husq prior although the Husq was hydro and easier to drive hence the desire for a hydro WH I've done no research on the 418a yet but it's a complete and not bad shape possibly easy fix to get going again. Its near you Steve. I broke the ice by buying a couple wheel weights for the 416 but I have no idea what the guy wanted for it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
