leeave96 490 #4 Posted June 12, 2013 No - the early non-HC 520 had the standard straight axles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dcrage 630 #7 Posted June 12, 2013 Did they have the 60" deck in 1988 and 1989?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebo-(Moderator) 8,538 #8 Posted June 13, 2013 The first swept forward front end was on the 1988 520 HC. They made a 1988 520 with the normal front end as well. They do not have the gear reduction steering but I run a 60 inch deck on my 1988 520 HC with no issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leeave96 490 #9 Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) Did they have the 60" deck in 1988 and 1989?? I think the original purpose of the swept forward axle was to allow for a 60 inch deck. Without doing a look-up, I'd say the 60 inch deck was available on the swept forward axle tractors from the get-go. Edited June 13, 2013 by leeave96 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
