Progress #2..

Good evening Horse Family 😀. So, after work I stared at my project wondering how and what I was going to do about a PTO 😕. Walking away to see if I had the heart to take my electric PTO off another engine, I seen the big box of parts that I hadn't gotten to examine yet. Surprise! Two manual PTOs, extra starter, muffler shroud, coil, charging circuit, piston, bearings and an assortment of fasteners. Didn't take long and finally got a PTO that may or may not be period correct but it's on there. Packed bearings with grease and bolted on the mount for the lever. Looks better and I can cross it off the list. I do need to find the front mount for the Tach Matic so I can run one of the few newer, bigger decks like on the C120 and C195. Ag tires ordered and all fluids changed before the weekend.

What year tractor? 

I personally prefer the look of the older ones like that.

Might be easier to just weld up a later type frame/ axle holder to some pieces of flat steel to bolt through the frame.

Thank goodness you are able to tell me what it is. I was getting concerned if it was or not considering it has a 14 HP now and wasn't sure about the decals. Figured someone pieced it together but all the same it runs, drives and hydraulic lift works. Does have a one bottom plow I can't resist to try sometime after new rear tires
