Axles and seals are still available from Deere, I have seals for less. At sometime in the future, I hope to have new axles available, but no idea on when. Side brackets might be current, but last I checked on one, maybe for 420, they were like $750 per side. There is a chance, maybe even a good one,...

I am pretty much wiped out of side brackets, I have 2 NOS front idlers left, that is it. All of the aftermarket axles are gone, so that wrecks that idea as well. I do hav...

If you mean a 6 way blade, angle and tilt, yes there was. The #62 blade is an inside arm manual 6 way blade.

I should have added, that a lot of the credit goes to Jeremy, he is the one that has done a lot of the work on the board, and came up with some great ideas for new features. Now if he can get me to figure out how to use it all.

Thanks to one of my customers, I was able to come up with a pattern for the battery hold down for the 430. I have it in now for programming, and as soon as it is done, I will let you know.
