The Howse 5 foot bush hog should work very well with your N. A couple of things you WILL need are an overrunning coupler and limiter chains. The ORC is needed because the N tractors drive the PTO in such a fashion that the inertia from the bush hog spinning will drive the tractor into anything in front of it if you don't use an ORC. The limiter chains control the cutting height so that you do not have to depend on the hydraulics to maintain proper cutting height. One thing to check is whether you have the original 1-1/8" PTO shaft. If so, it might be worthwhile to install the updated 1-3/8" shaft to gain the added shaft strength. HTH
