The 242x has significantly higher COG than the 425. I use my 425 uneven terrain all the time never flipped.

As far as I'm aware, they do continue to advertise in some trade publications to utilities, municipal buyers etc.

That is continuous flow but will just rotate a bit slower. These tractors are not throwing skid steer, or even mini skidsteer class flow at an implement... So you're able run things like broom, auger, grapple more so than say a hydraulic trencher or power rake... Fwiw, I've had nothing but good...

Yep.

Low hydraulic oil can absolutely do that. Check to be sure you don't have a hydraulic lever stuck in detent on the rear... You get weird hydraulic results in general like that. Reverse too? Parking brake hung?

Lol. I don't Facebook. Where's it located?

Thanks for the update and pics. Good luck with it. 🤞

They used the Parker MGG series for that. 0.6 displacement is what I used to convert a chipper. 0.58 is available now at surplus center. Close enough. There are compatible knock offs for the Parker. Assuming the yazoo was gas, direct drive you're looking for up to 3600rpm. If diesel more like...

Did the same and welded notched pipe on the outer stems....then filled with ultra-seal from gempler's ...not a flat in years on 2 425s and an 1850.

I've posted them in the past. I'll try to get more while servicing it this month.

Factory wheel motors. It's the larger series pt started using. Literally runs circles around our cuts.... For utility jobs. Will get some more pics while apart for end of season service.

Lol heard, it'll be an estate sale.

Several years ago, I replaced the Robin in my 425 w a Kubota 25hp.the weight, torque and fuel economy are fantastic. Added a couple of inches to the rear of the pt. Fuel tank went to the top of the engine cover. Can't stall the engine. My setup was all pumps on once side of the engine, so found...

Wider stance and the flexibility of the 4ply tire will improve, ride, tip over risk, and only compromise traction at the extremes. Chain, or non metal versions can replace the traction. I've had great luck with gemplers ultraseal for ballast and puncture prevention. I run a 425 convertered...

Fwiw, Any hydraulic sweeper of compatible width 4' ish for the 425 will do. The standard mini skidsteer flow is 10gpm, I've converted a few tools w no issues. power-trac will sell you the qa plate Just an idea that might expand options.
