That crate looks an awful lot like what they ship (or at least used to) those green things in. Just saying......:BlahBlah:

That 1541 may be a deal or a money pit. The hydro issue could be as simple as the release valve stuck part way in the release position or a bad charge pump. You can pickup a used 1641 pump off Flea Bay for around $75.00 but the tractor has 1300 hours on it so how much more time does the Mag 15/18 have left before it shoots it's cookies? I kicked it around and decided that the 1864 was enough for now for me.

Hope your 2072 turns out to be a score.

Congratulations on the 1864, my favorite cub!

I am going to be watching this one develop i have been eyeing 1862/1864's recently power steering seems like a nice feature.

This thread will be going into hibernation shortly. No heat in the shop and I have the water drained. I'm guessing it will be sometime in March before I get into it. :beerchug:

I thought you said it was 47° down your way? That's t-shirt weather for us folks up north.

:bigeyes: Looks mighty fine, Sam. Congrats!

Well cool! It made it there in one good piece! Looks like a good start for a project from here!


No joke! If it was 47 I'd already be working on my tractor...... outside!! :BlahBlah:

Awesome deal Sam! That's a helluva crate!:biggrin2::biggrin2: Surprised they don't want it back!

It's great when someone represents a machine well and you are happy with the deal! Unfortunately that doesn't happen too much anymore this day and time!:beerchug:

Looks good SAM.:beerchug:
"Hibernation?" (sniff, sniff) what's that I smell? No heat? There are companies now days that sell such a thing, that warms an area you know?...:biggrin2:
Just hackin on ya Sam. But really, it's time to warm up that space.:bigthink:
