B2650, FEL With QA 60"mmm, 3pt FDR1672,homemade ballast box, BB 1572 box scraper
Bought a used FDR1672 mower last spring to use with my B2650. Was pretty solid and used all last season and worked well. It is a 12 year old mower. Bought it for third of the price of a new one. Thought I would go thru it this winter and then repaint it orange to match up. I replaced all the bearings and bushings in the 4 bogey wheels it rides on, replaced both idler pulleys for the belt drive and the bearings in the center blade tower. Replaced bottom oil seal in gear box. I have never really done any body or paint work but thought I would tackle it. I completely disassembled the mower. Then took and stripped all of the rust and paint off. I then got all of the parts ready to prime. Definitely alot more work to this body work than I thought. More to come.
