Akestner 36 #1 Posted June 18, 2014 ok, yesterday I bought my first wheel horse ! its a 520H like I had been wanting not sure what year, I pick it up tonight looked to be in great shape no rust at all that I could see had 600 hours on it and I payed 600 for it the deck is a 48'' cut and looks to be in excellent shape I'm super excited about it pics. to follow I was just wondering what kind of a deal did I get on it ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 37,196 #2 Posted June 18, 2014 Considering the hours on it... I'd say you got an excellent deal. Can't wait to see it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seuadr 489 #3 Posted June 18, 2014 sounds like a sweet deal - i was north of a grand for mine with a few more hours (although it had a snow-blower) just think, with all of that money you "saved" you can start buying attachments! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akestner 36 #4 Posted June 18, 2014 that's the plan now I was hoping to buy one at the show and another horse with a sickle bar but I think i'm gonna go after a tiller and a blower btw mine doesn't have the bracket on the rear axle how hard are they to come by and how much are they Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm trying out a "combo" from ebay, i don't think we are allowed to post links to auctions, but if you search for a hitch adapter there is a guy there that sells a couple flavors of his own - he sells just the bracket or the bracket, attached to a mount that also has a traditional ball receiver for pulling trailers, etc as well. I wanted both and ordered one, but i won't likely have it till this weekend so i can't comment on the quality of the build (although it looks pretty solid) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
