To start with this tractor is a dedicated puller. I already have the rare factory smooth rear cover with no holes for anything, pto driveline completely removed from rearend housing,all hydraulic components completely removed from the tractor, electric start, light billet steel hubs, light rear steel rims, 18.4-38 Armstrong 6 plys at 40% (about the lightest tire in that size you"ll ever find that actually work), manual steering, MT narrow front with small wheels, oil bath air filter housing completely removed, pony start main fuel tank(cause its smaller than the electric start one), factory fuel filter setup will be replaced with a lighter modern spin on style. I do not pull in a restoration stock class but it still cannot be torched on and welded on to get lighter, all my mods bolt on and still have Deere casting numbers on them, minus the rear hubs and rims.
