71_Bronco 1,072 #1 Posted June 3, 2019 Just curious if anybody has done this before. I would assume it would be more for looks than function though. I could see it potentially being useful if you had a short-frame tractor that you were setting up with a more modern mule drive deck, as the forward swept axle would give more room for the deck and attach-a-matic. Has anybody done this? Or am I just a little crazy? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't got the answer at all but I'm curious to see what the others will say so I'll be here following along. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
71_Bronco 1,072 #3 Posted June 3, 2019 I know it kinda defeats the purpose of the short frame (short wheelbase, easy manuverability). But, if it allows the the necessary space under the middle of the tractor, for an attach-a-matic, I could see the use. Only issue would be getting a functional PTO adapted to the tractor vs the pedal set-up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Takes up to much space being qider and I don't drive it. Plus if you don't put the wider rear rims and tires on it then looks weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
