yeah, I know Ive been gone for a wile, but I put wheels on the wheele bars and made a weight rack on the front, and now i'm cutting my tires for traction. I ended up getting a full- time job on a farm so I don't have much time for the internet or tractors but the show is in 7 days so I got to get moving fast.

well... I gave in and shelled out $171 for a pair of 25x12.5x12 kenda bearclaws last night. this is the first time I have bought new tires for one of my rigs.

I don't think it is a peerless, cause it is cast iron. I think simplicity made it, and it has 1" axles, and it is a 3 speed

New exhaust looks great, but with my knowledge and experience with the oppy, i would recommend a bigger pipe, maybe 2 - 2/12 inch...

Naw, no stacks... Its a plow tractor so unless they will be way a ove your head you wont like them... The noise and exhaust fumes will be right in your face. Thats why the stack on my bolens is so big.

personally, i would stack it. make it about 6 inches taller than your head. pop inline, cylinder style mufflers in there, and that would be sick. put a 90 on the end and cut it like i did with mine. blows the mung away from you, looks cool, sounds good
