I tip my hat to a very talented fellow. Always remember him in the original True Grit with the Duke and loved that song the Wichita Lineman. Rip Glen.

You could also buy one of these and use the 3/4" TAV kit 5/8" x 3/4" x 3" Shaft Adapter Pulley Bore Reducer Sleeve Bushing Sheave & Key | eBay

I actually lifted this idea from a woman on YouTube. She bought a bobber seat kit and added it to her CU200T. I just changed it up a bit and think it works better. She used the two holes in the cross bar where the rear of the seat is attached. I thought it would be better to have the springs at...

I think you meant to say "nothing runs like a deere" :laugh:

This is my old tractor 1977 Wheel Horse B80. Nothing works like a horse.

Very true, Fed Ex is the worst offender. They always have an undersized rented truck and everything is just tossed in there with no regard for the customers items. Makes me want to scream lol. The box was kind of intact but the bottom which is supposed to be like a skid was snapped in two...

Wanted to say hello. I have nosed around here every now and then. I'm in my early sixties and still got the love for these little buggers lol. I have a Coleman CU200T coming here Wednesday. I only hope it comes in one piece, ordered it from Amazon. It appears it is hit or miss as to weather it...
