    What Year is My JD A

    Looks like my '51 A, ser.no 679770. If you see a water pump it's the last year for A's, a model year 1952. Looks like an exhaust system is in its future. Enjoy the A journey.

    Did John Deere offer front frame mounted weights for the 1951 A ? If not can model 60 weights fit? And any ideas for hanging newer suit case weights from the frame just behind front Roll-o-Matic wheels? Worried about hill climbing in New Hampshire.
