does anyone know of anyone selling adapterkits for belly mowers that i might be able to adapt for an rck53gr belly mower off a gr tractor into a tow behind cat 1? my kubota dealer says there is no kit from them but confirmed its a 540 rpm deck and should be ok behind my b7000 for power and speed.

my neighbour has the deck which is in good shape but has outlasted the gr tractor. i've seen lots of finishing mowers that looks like converted belly mowers. it seems like the conversion is just a hitch receiver triangle, plus some steel strapping, and angle brackets bolted to the deck and a drag wheel. that strapping and brackets is what i would be after.

Never seen any such "adapter kit".
I think by the time you find a gearbox and PTO and all the other casters and linkage your going to be in it for the cost of a good already made mower.
