biggredd267 0 #5 Posted September 3, 2013 Wow! looks great! I was wondering...My son's father passed away 2 years ago and I have this tractor I believe to be a 58', but I am not sure. It looks similar to this one here, but the shifter is in the middle, not to the side like yours. Otherwise looks identical. I will post a pic as soon as I can. Another thing...How do I find the model number on the tractor? I pulled the hood off of it and I see nothing. Is it possibly located somewhere else on the tractor? Thanks in advance. biggredd267 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

prondzy 3,883 #8 Posted September 9, 2013 If you have a serial number for the tractor it would be located on top of the frame rail in the front of the tractor with the 4hp kohler looks like you have a 61' 401 maybe one of the others will chime in and catch something that I missed. Biggred267 if look at the front axle is it casted like in the pics above (it will be a suburban) or is it or is it a straight across piece of steel (it will be a RJ)? Post a pic if you can so we can tell you what you have. By the way the suburban looks awesome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coadster32 793 #11 Posted September 15, 2013 Nice tractor, and you did good on the tires. That's a decent price on-line, then you have to add on shipping. (I like the little one without the shoe picture.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slammer302 2,155 #14 Posted August 28, 2015 Its hard to believe its been almost 2years since i rebuilt the suburban. I went over to shop tonight to fix the water lines and i couldn't resist taking it out and mowing around the shop with it still one of my favorite workers even though i keep it on light duty these days 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
