JD model A narrow front: need advice

Posted by randy on August 27, 2003 at 09:49:05 from (66.186.169.186):

I am new to the tractor thing, I inherited my dad's
John Deere model A with the narrow front end w/ PTO.
I live in Maine and have about 15 acres of field that I
have neglected and want to start bush hogging before
it gets any worse. I also will probably want to lime and
fertilize. The fields are hilly and I don't want to wind up
crushed beneath the tractor. My dad did bush
hog the fields with this but he grew up on a farm and it
took him a long time. I was a welder for 10 years
[I am now a commercial photograher] Can I convert this
to a wide front end or any other solution?
I think that the real solution would be a lower tractor w/
wide front, and probably will in time, but money is an
issue.
Any advise or feedback is appreciated.
P.S. I have a 5' bushhog.
