So I"ve had my old C for quite a while... But I have never needed it for mowing.
I now have about 7 acres I need to start mowing, old bahia pasture that has grown up for the last 6 years I need to start getting back into shape.
My tractor had a long sickle bar mower when I got it, the kind that bolts to the axles and the drawbar. It"s in reasonable shape and worked when I took it off over a decade ago.
Here"s my dilemma. I put on a 3 point conversion and have been using the tractor for a little grading and such. I believe I would have to remove that 3 pt conversion to put the sickle bar mower back on. Swapping that out to mow isn"t something I really want to have to do.
There"s a used 6ft King kutter shredder I could buy for a good deal, dunno if my C would take well to that on high overgrown pasture, even though I recently rebuilt the engine and it"s likely stronger than it was new.
Or maybe I could weld up a frame and built a 3pt setup to attach the old sickle mower to the three point I have on it now..
What would you guys do?
