too bad that wasn't in the tri-quad state area.. I'd seriously consider it.. Smile

Yeah, that's the one I mentioned the other day. Pretty nice looking for a 45 year old tractor. Complete with a series 10 front weight bracket. Smile

You sure?
I know you'd really like a 3 cyl gasser.
And you've been flirting around with buying a jerk o matic for a while.
This would be a great candidate to kill two birds with one stone.

don't think it isn't tempting... if a similar one popped for sale a lil farther south.. it might follow me home..

for instance.. a gasser 5000 NF.. I might have to drive for that one.. Smile

is it as simple as a pedistal change?

are the pedistals the same among them?

the NF later models are just so rare around here.. never see them.. an odd 6000 now and then.. etc..

I believe it is that simple. The 4200 has it's own wide front axle, but the 5200 and 7200 (and '76 66/7600 RC's) share the same wide axles. Don't know without checking p/n's, but I -think- they all use the same NF pedistal. May even be the same as the prior RC's.
Any time you get a '65-up RC, it will be a flat deck.

Hello Chris , I used to know where there was TWO single wheel fronts for the 5000 , if you are interested I can check to see if they are still there then you would not be limited to just a narrow front , you could grab a wide front and convert it yourself . Thanks Tony
