That's OK Carscw, I can take it. LOL

I have been working on this thing and I had to order 2 new light sockets and I also had ordered a new lense for the front of it, They sent me a whole new grill, because the lense is no longer available.

I think that the contrast makes it look great.

Hey RickS, It does look great with the new black griill. They are still selling models at Lowes with your style of grill and lens. Some call it the cyclops lens. The difference is in the mounts on the plastic lens to the grill. The old type lens have round plastic pins which seem to be more fragile than the newer type of lens which have flat plastic tabs as I recall. They may have sent you the new type so they had to send the grill to match the tabs. :smile:

i looked around and thats what they're doing now....you have to buy the whole kit and kaboodle...instead of just the lens....

Does anyone know approximatley how much my Lawn tractor weighs?

I have not got the means to get it weighed. I am trying to get some ramps to load it into the bed of a pickup.

With the 20Hp twin engine I would say around 630 LBS. U.S.

 

[RickS]

Thanks a lot, then I can get the 1000 lb ramps and they would work fine.

Yes as long as you do not weigh over 300 LBS. You would have to add your weight also if you drive it on instead of pulling it on by some means as a come along or winch.

:laughing:Nope not at all near that weight milestone :laughing: But I am sure that the 1000 lb steel ramps from Harbor Frieght will do the job.

Yes, i would think they would be more than adequate. From a safety standpoint I would make sure that they were secured well to whatever you were loading onto so they did not slip and cause a fall.
