Guys, Here's what I do to make the poison dog proof. I built little shelves to screw to the studs in the garage and in the pump house, both high enough to keep the dogs away. I also build little wood boxes to screw to the pilings under the house. To these, I screw one of the poison stick baits. The stick baits have a hole through the center of them, and will fasten down well with a 4" sheetrock screw. It keeps the mice from taking the bait, gives them a little rest to feel comfortable with, keeps the bait out of the reach of the dogs and best of all, kills the little rats. You have to unscrew the box under the house to put the stick bait in it because I screw it about an inch from the studs, but it keeps the dogs out of the poison. You can also slide those stick baits onto wires to protect them. Mice eat it instead of the wires. Can you tell I've put a little thought into killing mice?<br>

I really wish I didn't have to do this to them, but they will pee and crap everywhere, and that I can't take. I was redoing the insulation under the house and bumped into 2 copperheads. They help too.

If you only have an ac machine, 6011 will do the job also. You may want to cover the weld with 6013 after.

Thanks dfkrug, It is in nice shape. The tractor is 4wd, so you think it does have 4wd? I just don't remember seeing a hydraulic unit on the front. I'm going to see it this weekend again. Thanks again. I hope it's still there.

Last week I fixed a finish mower I hadn't used in 10 years. I've been using a "bush hog" in it's place. When I mowed with the finish mower, I was amazed at the job it did. It yard and pasture looked so much better than it did when I mowed it with the rotory mower. I don't think I could mow the whole pastre with it, but what I did looked great. I'll never be without a finish mower again. I think you should buy that first and get a rotory mower later. My .02.

I had a belt size stuck in my head, B-120. I bought one although it was 6 inches longer than a sting length measurement run through the pulleys. It was the correct belt size for this mower if this helps anyone in the future. A B-120 is 123" in length.

Thanks for the replies. The dealer says the tractor is a 2000 model and just never sold. He said all the hours come from lot use, and I could see that. I think I'm going to pass though. It has been sitting for too long. I see possible problems due to inactivity for so long. I was going to do it when it was a 2003 model, but when he said 2000, well...

JD, I live in Houston, where mihindra is based out of (Tomball TX, about 15 miles), so I'm thinking parts won't be too much of a problem. As far as resale, I realize the mihindra won't pull as much resale value, but it also is 5000 less to start with. My wifes 1st cousins actually own the deere dealerships here in houston, so I tend to want to go with them, but keeping an extra 5 grand in the bank is appealing also. The mihindra looks like it will do the work, JD has the reputation.

Thanks for the replys. They lead to another question though. The 35HP Mahandra is listed at 4300+ lbs. Do you still think 4WD is nessessary with that much weight? That is unusually heavy for a compact tractor. Thanks

I don't know the crosssover numbers, but I have an AC 5020 that also has a Hinimoto label on it. I think the MF # was a 240? When I see a hinimoto or mf they are exact under the hood.
