illinilefttackle 399 #1 Posted September 8, 2015 Hi Guys- WELL- you might remember a while back I posted a "wanted" post for a 111-5 chassis - so my old legs could get on & off easier ( lower to the ground). While looking for a Horse candidate ( honestly I really was), I discovered this "THING". I told myself I could never live it down, but the deal was too good. Practically got it for hauling it away! It starts instantly and goes thru all the gears smoothly. The Deck shuddered badly- I found it needs 2- $6 spindle bearings- I didn't really want another mower- but what the heck! The only thing I haven't figured out yet- is how I can hide it from my John Deere neighbor- he is the Guy that I get into some pretty stiff discussions about WHEEL HORSE vs. JOHN DEERE. I almost feel like I have committed ADULTERY or something- well maybe not quite that bad- Here she is...Thanks Al Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

6wheeler 603 #13 Posted September 13, 2015 Tell your neighbor you bought something else from the guy and he threw that in. Then tell him you felt bad for the poor orphan so, you decided to give it a home. Or, just wear a bag over your head while using it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
