Been a while, but I know there is a set screw that comes into play somehow. Double check your service manual.

Seems to me about 3 ohms, but could be wrong. It goes in the hot wire to the coil. A Chrysler ballast resistor should work.

I should have rockershaft, would need to check.
Rebuild kit will vary depending on how deep you want to get.

43e 0 and 440 will work as well, but will not be correct.
I have a 420 block and head on hand if you need one.

Howard,
As long as it is set up for a hoe, should go right on.

Exhaust pipes back in stock

FINALLY, I have the short exhaust pipe from the manifold to the muffler on 420-440 back in stock. For those of you that had inquired, sorry for the delay, they are here now.

The weld on sprocket rings I think he is referring to are the weld on 350 rims, they do not fit a 2010.

Where I am at right here, it is "pool table" flat for the most part. That is why the kids harass me for a snow hill every Winter. Like I really need an excuse to push snow, but that is what I tell people.

That is an aftermaket blade, I can't help on the manufacturer. There might be a tag on it somewhere that will identify it, or maybe someone where will recognize it.

If all you are doing is the track adjusters, any grease guy will be fine.
Levers should sit on the stops, if they don't, something is out of whack.

An hour sooner, and he would have a pretty good chunk of change still in his pocket. Now the towing company and the body shop are going to get it. Can't realy fault the kid in the tow truck, at 35 degrees in wet snow, nothing with rubber tires would have done it unless it had chains. Again reinforce...

They used to come in just a brown color. I think that Deere impregnates the leather with something like a preservative and that makes it look like a darker natural leather color.
Usually they get treated eventually with a little hyd oil conditioner when the seal on the tilt cylinder leaks.
