I got a chance to buy a finish mower.used. very used.real used. Problem is that it needs some repair,and I've never heard of the brand,its United Farm Supply.I have the model number and serial number,it has a problem with one of the pulley spindles,whoever had it let the bolts that attach it to the mower deck come loose and elongate the holes.I think I can weld them up and redrill them,but I wanna know if I need blades or something like that can I get them?2) The same person has a John Deere PTO tiller.this thing is HUGE.At least 6'.Will my Yanmar grey 2500 handle it okay (27 Hp engine)? And,is there anywhere to get replacement tines for it besides JD? She told me her late husband priced them and they were 300.00 from JD...ouch....any Ideas?I have made a bid of 400.00 for both of them,they look pretty rough but I think I can make them work...any comments appreciated..KeithDPicayune,MS

KeithThe oval holes you refer to, make them bigger if nessesary & inset a small bushing the right size & weld it in place.Just a thought,call your jd dealer with the model # of tiller & price tines, then you know exacly what they cost, providing your tractor will handle it? ....

Take them and run...You can get spindle plates, which are a large washer with the holes pre drilled at most out door equipment dealers. Most will be able to match up the spindle also.You can always sell the tiller for more than you are paying for both, if your ground is too tuff or your tractor just cannot spin it effectively. I have been looking for one, and they are not cheap or many around. Good luckmario ....
