bds1984 1,500 #1 Posted July 18, 2020 Sixty hours that is. I have only accumulated sixty hours since I've redone my C165 five years ago. I thought for sure I would have put more hours on it but I have since acquired two other machines I use year round; one for mowing (315-8) and one for snow plowing (520H). 6 1 1 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Retired Wrencher 5,838 #2 Posted July 20, 2020 (edited) bds1984 To me it not the hours but the enjoyment of having one to do our work that has to be done. Enjoy the tractor. Edited July 20, 2020 by Retierd Wrencher 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ro-Go 76 #3 Posted July 21, 2020 Fantastic tractor. Not a fan of the diamond plate, but the black hoods are amazing. My father's old c-145 hydro is waiting for me to restore.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 67,053 #4 Posted July 22, 2020 I’ve seen this tractor, it is so nice in person! This is the one that has convinced me that the 520 swept axle and gear reduction steering is the bees knees! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bds1984 1,500 #5 Posted July 31, 2020 The swept forward axle is just a bonus part of the 520 steering system; for a time I just had that and no gear-reduction part. It is the gear reduction part that is the best! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
