Jmech- I would like to keep my pto rear as I am interested in making a rear mower for it I have some skills and patience and would like to try it, although there is a pro rear for sale on craigslist in my area I believe it's the same guy I just bought a qa42 from today actually, he has a nice pile of cubs and all small engines I wish I would of seen inside his shed but he said he had someone from wisc coming so he couldn't show us, he said he had a 122 with hard cab as his pride an joy also a few bolens, allis, vintage Briggs, hitnmiss, etc said he was downsizing. There's my little story for the day.
oh and my pto has a sleeve thing over it, looks like an adapter for standard style pto splines.
