My best mower is a Jubilee and a woods RM660, 72 inch mower. Everyone tells me how great my lawn looks. I too have back issues and can't ride a ztr or do much on a riding mower. Running in second gear, 1800 rpms, I'm doing 4 mph and the blades are singing, because pto is a little over 540 rpms. I think the tip speed of the blades are close to 200 mph.

My most comfortable mower is my 1950 Farmall C with a 72 inch woods belly mower. That may be one of the first ztr's, it has a narrow front end and can spin on a dime. The Farmall seat is the most comfortable seat.

The Jubilee is around 30 hp while the Farmall is closer to 20 hp. I'm not a fan of diesels because they give me a headache and my gassers have no problems starting. Not to mention I know how to work on gassers.

I can push snow with both tractors. The Jubilee has a 3 pt and I have many other attachments for it. It works best for grading drives and digging post holes.

I don't worry about a dealer, I do my own service work on the old simple antique tractors. If you can't do that, find the best dealer that's the closest and get a truck and trailer to take tractor in for service and repairs.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
