Guest 88vic #1 Posted April 27, 2019 I know its an RJ but not sure which one, I havent found a serial number or model plate in the box of parts. Hmmmm. All in all, still a great day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest 88vic #2 Posted April 27, 2019 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 ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHGuy413 2,772 #3 Posted April 27, 2019 That's a suburban not a rj. Not sure what model. Someone else will be able to figure that out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest 88vic #9 Posted April 27, 2019 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest 88vic #10 Posted April 27, 2019 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. ❤ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
