Frank The Tank   10 #1 Posted June 21, 2017 I am a 516H owner. I'm 32 years old. I inherited my Tractor 🚜 from my father a few years back. He decided to purchase a 56' cub cadet to mow his 5 acres. It still takes a long time to mow but he takes his time. My wife and I moved to a home with 2.3 acres. The Eaton 700 is taking a dump. I'll most likely be posting in the want section for the 1100 set up. I know this is what I need after the research I've done here. So, Hello and thanks for any advice and the warm welcome I expect from this great forum. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vendor on Red Square....by the way, keep your operating rod from your 700   ..  you will need it..( that is the horizontal one that goes to the top of the hydro.)  3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used to frequent oldminibikes forum with the same handle. Friends and family called me Frank The Tank well before the movie Old School, in case anyone was wondering. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frank The Tank   10 #19 Posted June 23, 2017 I was a member of a few different auto and hobby forums over the years. I figured it would be good to introduce myself and have some interaction prior to going straight to the classified section. Thank you everyone for the warm welcome. I look forward to doing the 1100 upgrade.  Then maybe I'll start the search for some other implements. My old wheel horse runs pretty strong since I've replace the fuel line and filter. She's due for some fresh oil and an air cleaner.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
