My 28 year old friend and I (79 years old) got a 4.11 gear ratio Ford Ranger rear axle welded to an old trailer tongue, and then mounted an extra set of Ferris zero turn wheels and tires. The overall gear ratio worked pretty well as the PRO spins pretty fast at ground speed. I had not transported my Ferris yet, to the site with the Millcreek manure spreader ( and mountain of several year old manure from the farm's previous owner) so I hooked my spreader to the homemade PTO mule axle, then hooked the whole rig to my 61" Skags Turf Tiger.

Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
