Lawn mowers....

....they cant pull much...as i so found out.

So i was trying to pull this...about 20 ft x 20 ft section of deck that's been neglacted and is...not being used...so i was going to pull it over behind my SUBARU parts bin building so i can stack tires and other things on it...

well, the damned thing is just too heavy for my little lawn mower to pull...I was going to grab the RX and pull it, but then I remembered that i have the RWD one now(as I sold the other one that woudl ahve pulled this thing beautifully)...and the center diff lock on the wagon is not hooked up yet....so, i give up...and see that NASIOC is still up for the time being.







ok, ive waited enough time...gotta unload from the wagon: two EA82s...an EJ205...a Single Range FT4WD trans...several cam cases...interior parts...flywheels, clutches...pres. plates...and...a headlight. Fun.

Cool, i didnt think Cub make tractors...

They don't now. I know its called a Cub. I don't remember the rest

I think this one was made by a company called Farmall. I would have to ask my dad for the extra details.

Made this out of that deck:



Still got more than 1/2 the deck left to use up!
