buckeye 5 #1 Posted March 3, 2010 hey guys, i just bought a c-195 super cheap. it's all original and only has 374 hrs. on it. i know that the rear pto unit and the 3 pt. hitch are hard to come by. question is, where do i start looking? anybody here want to sell theirs?

C-Series14 15 #2 Posted March 3, 2010 I don't want to sell either of mine but will tell you what I did. I bought a 3 point off of a D-Series. You will need the upper arms. Now, I don't know if it is still available but several years ago, it was from Toro for $144. I then went to an auction in Pa. many years ago and found a NOS rear PTO. I have since found a spare set of arms. As for the piece that holds the top link, you could use the one off a D-Series if you didn't have or want to use the rear PTO. Check out the drawings on Toro's site for the part number for the upper arms. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

buckeye 5 #4 Posted March 3, 2010 i know which part your talking about. i looked at it earlier on the toro site. i thought about going the d-series route, but aren't they hard to come by as well? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C-Series14 15 #5 Posted March 3, 2010 I see D-Series 3 point setups on EBay all the time. Don't think I have ever seen a C-195 3 point! Have seen the C-195 rear PTO on EBay though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buckeye 5 #6 Posted March 3, 2010 yeah rick, picking it up on sat. it has one small crack in the fender where the lift levers are, i think that is the first place break. the hood is kinda rough, but i have a nice donor. 374hrs. for only $300. Question; is there a way to repair a crack in the fenders? and what about painting them? thought about replacing with a metal fender, but would like to keep original.

rickv1957 72 #7 Posted March 3, 2010 The fender can be repaired and painted,a metal fender wont fit the 195,Rick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rickv1957 72 #10 Posted March 3, 2010 I could be wrong but the same method as repairing the newer car plastic bumpers should work,Rick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C-Series14 15 #11 Posted March 3, 2010 I fiberglass mine from the backside. Also, they make a plastic welder also, never seen one though. Check the picture gallery for a pic of mine at the show last year...Mine is a 1982, levers down behind left leg. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

C-Series14 15 #14 Posted March 3, 2010 Mine were cracked a couple places. I have used both fiberglass and body putty on the 4 plastic fenders I have. They look nice when in one piece but they are prone to breaking! B) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
