[QUOTE="mrbb, post: 127781, member: 13825"] MY 2 cents, the older machine are getting harder and harder to find replacement parts when things fail, many are discontinued as well, meaning you cannot get parts for them at all! leaving you searching scrap yards the world wide web and even then, my not find part, so unless your a guy that likes to modify things when parts are not available, , I say, go look at the JD, and do a GOOD once over, if you don't know what to look for, take someone that does hours alone tend to mean little on older machines, its more about use and how well they were cared for or not how far allowed to have worn parts on them, and how abusive or not the operator/s was to it! so knowing what to look for on a machine , can many times be worth paying someone to come with you if you don;t know, , replacing worn parts can get costly FAST , and make what seemed like a good deal, turn into a nightmare!
