This is why I now interview guys that wanna buy my horses. To make sure they get taken care of. Gives meaning to going to a good home. :thumbs2:

Ended up buying the 520xi I looked at a few weeks ago after doing a little more research on hydrostat whine. Ordered filters and will do fluid and greasing before anything. The charging light and mowing in reverse lights stay on so I will need to resolve those also. Best thing, no buyers remorse.

Congrats on the purchase!  If you haven’t already, I’d suggest checking out that front axle pivot pin.  You’ll need to jack up the tractor by the frame to check for slop.

Hope you like the color changes. Just something different. 

 

 

I’m proud of you Uncle Jim!

Added a receiver hitch to the rear of my RJ-59 to attach a garbage can hauler. I have a very steep driveway and at 66 it is difficult to get the heavy trash cans to the curb.

Worked better than expected and I still get joy out of driving my grandfather's tractor he purchased new. BTW this is how I learned to drive!
