Hey guess what guys,I got myself a big ole' mower this weekend. I got a rather large Sears Craftsman II 5 speed tractor with an 18HP Briggs opposable head engine. It kind of looks like it has been through WW2, but believe it or not runs great and seems to have been taken good care of...mechanically. It is really simple and easy to work on and I think changing out the pulleys will be super easy too. There's a stacked pulley up front and a 7" one in the back. I'll just swap out the back with a 3 or 4" one and see what she'll do.[riding_mower_front.jpg][/img]
Anyhow, since I've got a machine, I'm more serious about actually doing this. Sorry, I was gone on a trip for the last 3 days. I was looking on the USLMRA web site, and it seems that we might have to notify them about starting a chapter if we were to do this?
