ohiofarmer 3,156 #7 Posted January 18, 2019 (edited) The one just posted in Redsquare classifieds. Drjarvis. Anyway, the 800 Commando is a nice straight machine. He kept the rear tires and seat and the front end is tight. Just a few electrical gremlins to solve. it runs pretty well. he wanted to keep some parts to get the price down for a quick sale, and I really did not need those Ag Tires and seat, so win-win A nice polite seller. And also a member here. He did mention what a terrific person vinylguy is and also some of the original forum members as well. So I am doing OK in my goal of having 3 working mowers by spring....

ohiofarmer 3,156 #13 Posted January 20, 2019 Well, Ok here are the pictures--and also a way I figured out how to unload a tractor more safely. right after i picked up the 880, I went to pick up the backordered toolbox from harbor Freight. Just a piece of cake to unload it with the high position motorcycle lift they also sell. So I also lifted the unloading planks level with the truck bed, backed the tractor to the end of the planks [by hand], put it in gear to hold it, and lowered it down. Then i added Bronco saw horses I use at work to pull the truck away, and lowered each plank a step at a time. there was very little weight on the planks at this point. so here is the tractor, nice and straight and safely and easily unloaded. Enjoy 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
