    That would be great, but the hitch point would be a little tall. Must be front wheel drive?

    No eye bleach needed. There's a surprising number of those old "hundreds" still out there cutting grass. One-Lung Kawi's (Especially the FC540) still giving a shout-out to the whole neighborhood once a week or so.:salute: Muffler baffles have been gone since '94. :rofl: :lol:

    Biggest issue I've heard with them is the cam gear is plastic and will waste the motor when it goes, and you know the saying, if I heard it on the internet it must be true.:rofl: :lol: I've actually have an extra motor that came with my first 185 that was the original for the tractor. Was replaced shortly before I purchased/stole it and could always open it up.
