Put my 460 to work today. took it up to my dad's place and mowed his big pasture. this 10 acres is full of Bahiagrass that aint been mowed in three years. needles to say it was in bad shape. all i have right now is a 5' mower.

when we hit a thick patch of grass, i would reach down and grab the TA. Gotta love that TA. first chance to really use it. Mable never looked back. we would pull thru the thick then back to the high side.

took about 3 hrs to mow his 10 acres. Here is a photo of Me and Mable on a nice fall day.

5' brush cutter shouldn't be to much work , but your 3
bottom plow will be a lot closer . Nice picture , awesome
to see old iron working .
 
Good looking tractor Bass! I've got a 460
Diesel that is a WF. I bought it non running
after it suffered from a wiring fire. I
rewired it, and had to do some messing with
the injection pump to get it running. I have
the parts to convert the injection pump
advance over to the later style that will
work better, so I hope to be able to get to
it this winter. I also hope to convert it
over to the Navistar 7.3 glow plugs to help
it start easier. I need a utility tractor
around the farm that has power steering,
live pto and hydraulics, taller tires, and
the diesel economy. I use a 674 as my yard
tractor now, and it has lots of power, but
not enough traction or weight to put it to
the ground. It also has a gas engine and is
quite tough on gas. One of the few gas
tractors we have anymore that are everday
working tractors, so I'll be glad when I can
start using the 460 D for my chores. I'm
sure it will need a bit more work once I get
to using it all the time, but that's why I
buy my stuff needing work, I know what I'VE
done to it.
 
I'm also a proud member of the 460 club!
Mine has become my most versatile tractor,
light enough to be nimble in the yard,
powerful enough to do all but my heaviest
tasks. It's good to see the 460 getting the
respect it deserves; it's about time :) Hugh
