Any idea what a fair price would be on a good used LR72 with gauge wheels?
Thanks

I have an LR84 and the tines are straight in line and not offset and staggered like the one in the photo.
Beats me but it almost looks like two things clamped together?


**Edit--I'll add it is two pieces clamped together. You can see where some tines were removed and apparently bolted to a piece in front that is clamped on. Only some of the tines are actually clamped to the LR72. Look close.

It's an interesting design concept, however, and with thinner and sharpened tines would make a great industrial quality de-thatcher or scarifier type thing.

That does look modified. My LR72 also has the tines in a row and all the spaces are filled. Looks like some tines are missing. It would be interesting to see a front/side shot to see how the tines on this one are staggered. I paid about $850 for mine.

I purchased a LR72 with gauge wheels (in very good condition) and 15ea additional replacement tines off Craig's List last year for $435. However, I agree with Sixdogs and Deerhead that all the tines on my LR72 are in a row.

I see your point now. See this side shot. Would you let theses modifications keep you from buying it?

I was just quoted $975 for a new Woods LR84, the Landpride version was similar priced. Those aren't Woods brand gauge wheels either.

Other than the missing tines, it looks pretty sound. Like sixdogs said it appears to be an industrial dethatcher. If I were buying it I would find out the price to replace the missing tines to make it whole again and figure that in the price. What are they asking?
