Jim_M 179 #4 Posted December 19, 2010 Thanks guys! Joey, It was nice meeting you today. I hope the tractor does a good job for you. One thing I meant to tell you...When it comes time to replace the belt it's a BX78 or B78 whichever you can buy locally. Have you done any wheelies yet? Mine is still on the back of the truck. I had to haul firewood to the house when I got home and by the time I was done with that I was about worn out. I'll unload it tomorrow and post a picture or two.

Jim_M 179 #13 Posted December 20, 2010 awww look the cubs first snow hey is that a tractor like i got from u in background? if so tell me about them big meaty tires so i can get some as a matter of fact post a picture so i can see that little beast better i might wanna put some wheels on like that Joey, The tractor in the background is a 654 with a chinese diesel in it. The tires are 23 x 10.50 x 12's on 8.5" rims. I'm not sure you would be able to fit them on a Lawn Ranger, they barely fit the 654. They do make some nice Ag tires that fit the lawn ranger. Take a look at Miller tire's website or look on eBay, you'll find them. Jim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
