Sometimes you just gotta watch the paint dry!

No need to torture yourself like that, just send me the
address and I'll come take it off your hands!

Looks great! Thanks for sharing!

Boy that's a nice set up. Can you also adjust the angle to mow in different angle positions?
I like you ford '36 delux coup front rims. They are a good alterative for the 19" narrow tires
I have a set or two I'll sell if someone needs them for a 9n/2n loader.

Kirk, send me info about the wheels you mentioned. Kurt [email protected]

Yes, that is a beautiful sickle setup!

Kirk-NJ · May 6, 2013

These are the ones I have. The ones with the hubs came off a 2n. These hubs are off a ford deluxe coupe. Although they look the same as the ford tractor hub they are not. If you try to mount a 9n/2n hub on these rims the holes will not line up. If interested I would like $50 for the 4 rims/4 tires and 2 hubs.

Thanks, Kirk

yes you can tilt the entire sickle from flat to the ground up to about 10 degrees. your angle of attack if you will. (front to back) Lengthwise it will supposedly cut from 45 degrees below level, up to 45 degrees above level. Haven't tried it yet, still have to grease everything, and put on the belts. I'm a little concerned where the pitman meets the sickle. It's a ball and socjket joint and it's a little sloppy.... we'll see

I think I had the 502 sickle on one of my 4000 and it would almost mow straight up. it was great for mowing the brush that encroched on the logging trails.

I hope mine does the same. I know mine will mow up high, but i think i mispoke. I don't think it will go down as far as 45 degrees. I was quoting the old ford advertising. I don't see the inner shoe moving so it would let the bar down that far. Of course if the tractor is on the same slope, then maybe. But that would be a little scary!

Couple years ago I paid $100 a piece for 2 hubs and was glad to get
em.... I think I still have the old hubs somewhere the drums are worn out...
Yours would B a steal for use on a N...
