Wheel-N-It 2,976 #1 Posted July 5, 2013 Back in May I took a road trip to Henrico NC to bring home a one owner 414-8. The tractor came with a really nice 42" SD mowing deck, a nearly brand new mule drive, a Brinley rear mounted scrape blade, and a sleeve hitch. The tractor is equipped with all the linkage for the rear lift system. This is a HUGE PLUS for me as I have been wanting to add a Wheel Horse to the herd as a perminant tilling tractor. I already have the tiller. I had an extra tiller bracket, so after the paint dries it will go on the 414 along with the tiller. I'll post some pics of the tractor with the tiller mounted after all that is married up. Jay-in-NC made me a super nice custom weight bar for the front. It clips right onto the front where the mule drive goes. Here are some pics for your weekend enjoyment!!! 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very nice addition! Tankman, a good saddle is on the shopping list for the 414. I would have bought one at the Pa. show, but I was on a mission to buy a tip top shape 48" side discharge mowing deck which I did. Actually the seat on the 414 sits and fits and rides great, much much better than it looks. By the way, I was looking for you at the Pa. show. Did you happen to attend without my knowing it???
