Just a quick update on the 73.
The k341 is still kickin butt...no issues...no burning oil.

I was having to replace front wheel bearing every season.
With a little research, I chose to install a wide frame front axle.
For some reason it steers like it has power steering now??

Additionally, I utilized a 5 lug front hub kit from extreme motorworks.

I also fabbed up a spring loaded idler pulley for the 36 cutting deck.
Only had to replace the v-belt 1 time in 3 cutting seasons (3 acres per cut)

Thanks for all the info you guys put on here...it really helps me.
