Ford YT 16 Work Tractor

Hey guys, this topic is about my Ford YT 16 (yard tractor). I got this thing for $150 running and driving and would mow with new blades! I of course took the deck and axle off, the axle is a Peerless 801 and I locked it, I still need gear oil and silicon before I put it back together. This tractor will be a work tractor, with 24" AT489s that were on the Craftsman at one point, the 16hp Magnetron B&S Oppy will stay on it, and I'm gunna make a trailer for it. I'll post pictures asap.

nothing like a HD work horse. thats what i use my bolens for

Fantastic! Gonna be a mean machine. Can't wait to see it!

Heres what it originally looked like.

i still have the deck for my bolens, and the driveshaft, hell, even the lift linkage, all i'd need is a belt and 3 blades. oh yeah, and a ton of welding on the deck. like i said, looks like a fun project.. its good to have a heavy duty tractor laying around. is the transaxle lock the only thing you plan on doing?
