I know it is missing a couple parts, like a steering gear at the bottom near the axle.  Also a belt cover.  Im learning as I go, finding missing pieces to the puzzle to make it functional and cruise !

That's a suburban not a rj. Not sure what model. Someone else will be able to figure that out.

 You have a 1960 550 suburban, that's a 5.5 Lauson in the box

The guy I got it from said he only had it a couple months and that he got tired of it. It was too much work he said to finish. His loss, my gain.

He didnt have any info on previous owner, I wanted a cool story on the history but didnt get one. I wish these tractors could speak. ❤
