Modified Deere 185 Hydro Drive Garden Tractor
 ✖  |
Just for fun, I shortened up a Deere 185 Hydro Drive garden tractor by cutting 12 in. out of the middle. It draws a lot of looks whenever I display it at antique tractor shows. The tractor was originally equipped with a Kawasaki 12 hp engine but I didn't need that much power, so I replaced it with a Kawasaki 4 hp engine. It came off a Toro walk-behind mower and is really easy on fuel. I had to remount the steering sector straight up and down, instead of at an angle, because of the lack of room.
