Hi..... .I think I may have (stumbled)into my own answer.... I have just finished reading down in the posts,and by some coinsidence,I have found a very simular mesg content,as to my question.... Under (Topic: No lift without rotation.)... By reading the replys,it does seem that without PTO rotation,there is no lift.... So at the same time I have read the mention of the (Live Thang)supposedly built by one ..Mr.Zane Sherman It seem that this,(albeit somewhat expensive add on)will provide exactly what I'm looking for..... That being(full use of the lift without the engagement of the PTO).At $435.00 (if the price hasn't gone up sence that post)This isn't a cheap fix.Pay the price,or climb down and disconect,the PTO input from the attached implement.Then store the PTO input shaft away somewhere,so ya don't lose it.then reconnect it,before you decide to,use the implement again.It just may be worth the price tag. Picture this senerio...You approach your tractor,the bush hog cutter is still attached from the last useage.You desire to startup the tractor,and drive down the road a bit,and then enter the area you want to mow.Simple enough,but first you need to disconnect,the PTO input shaft,and carry it along with you in your pocket I say "nuts",I do belive I'd spend the $435.00.It appears that my concerns about that issue,may be solved..... Now if I can just get around the uneasy feeling of buying a TO30,knowing that I've read the mention of (quite common)the occurance of the blocks on the z129's cracking between the cylinders,and there aint no cure,nor easy fix,nor is there any supply of these blocks.This little TO30 I've found is seemingly very solid,no leaks,and purrs...My luck will be that that was all before I bought it.A cracked block,is a dead tractor,sold for parts.I digress ...please excuse me....So.....in anycase....thanks for any input.....
