jeff, if the poster doesnt wish to post his location on his profile, then i doubt you'll persuade him otherwise, and its very understandable as if you delete a thread, then your location is hidden again

ahh I understand what you mean now, in regards to the transmission. Hopefully I'll have the extra HP available just Incase, ie bog down ect. But nonetheless it will be very nice having a high pto HP amount, especially with running a tiller ect. ascfor HP, I must remember to start writing...

Sadly I'm most likely needing two, as otherwise the drive system will be a PITA, and for lawnmower transmissions, from what I've heard unless you use a k66 or more (which even then isn't recommended) since they can burn out really easily with alot of strain being put on them. Granted my solution...

Sadly in my area, kei trucks are stupidly expensive (around 5-10K for one that's half rusted out) and the golf carts are mainly abused by teens hooking on them (I know as I used to participate in said hooning lol) As for the gearbox mechanism, you've actually described exactly what I'm...

I've heavily thought about it, however due to needing to do clay work, whislt maintaining a small size means that 2wd would just spin. A good friend of mine has a smaller unit like that, also in 2wd, we tried it the other day. Well let's just say it tilled the area where it's rear tires were...

Haha thankyou, I've been trying to update as much as I can, however I want to avoid clogging up the thread with tidbits,and being swamped with work means progress is slow

Oh I'm talking about having to unhook the pto when parking ect ect, plus it does concern me with other implements yk

Wow that belt drive looks really interesting, I was planning on using a hydro off a lawnmower but now a regular transmission is definitely going to be more useful haha. I've found some out of a Ute for a few 00$ which will give me low gearing. As for the pto I'm planning on using a simple belt...

There may be "some" however that would easily go for 1000$ plus, nonrunning. Which when a little Chinese one is half the cost. Or 1/4 the cost of a running unit, it sadly makes more sense, I really don't know why they're so expensive here though. The Chinese one should be here in about 3 weeks...

The te20, sadly no. I learnt the hydraulics are ran off the pto aswell, which entirely killed it for me as I can't justify taking it off just to lower the implement. As for the tiller, I've found a powerful small one for 500$, so I plan on buying that and trying it whislt I source parts and...

Haha I wish only 3x. To buy what I'm looking at will be 10K minimum, and to get something with some use on it would be around 15K. And after just recently spending 7 on a mower she's already fairly not happy

Sadly not here, unless I buy Chinese. It seems prices are doubled + the gst ecr makes it un-feasable

Have looked into that, and with what they're charging it's cheaper to bite the bullet lol. Most places near me are a few hundred for 1-3 days, which multiple times a year is tractor money haha. And by the sounds of it she definitely won't budge

Oh yeah they're really popular here, it's either them, internationals or David browns or fiats. But Massey's are byfar the most popular, the only thing I really dislike is the high speed and large just, size in general. Since the areas I need to use it in are absolutely miniscule, and 15 point...

Hi all, after consulting my wife on buying a SCUT/CUT she has, well firmly disagreed with the idea. However my dilemma is that I am wanting to create a garden/planting area, and due to our soil being 99% clay, I've had to approach the costly territory. So what I want to ask is: Out of these...
