A friend offered for free, a 48" JD tiller. Trouble is, it's a 12 hour drive one way to pick it up (NJ-Bar Harbor, Me). Before I commit to taking it, I need to know if it'll fit my JD 4400.
Serial # on the tiller is: M02902X538226 (any idea what year this is?).
I'm told it fits a 318, 420 & 430.
Being new to the board, & new to tractors, I have no idea what this tiller, or the recommended tractors, look like (anyone have a pic?). All I use the 4400 for is mostly cutting the 5+ acres of field around the house (Before the house was finished, neighbors called the police & complained about the over-grown field which had sat fallow for at least 8 years prior. Nice, eh?) & moving a little dirt. We have a tiny vegetable plot now (maybe 150 sq ft?), but with a tractor mounted tiller, I'd love to have one much larger (1500 sq ft at least).
So, should I do this deal, or keep my eyes open for a tiller more appropriately matched to my tractor?
My brother & I have built so many Mopars in the last 3 decades, there's not much we DON'T know about them (my specialty is 66-67 Chargers & 68-69 Darts), but when it comes to these tractors & accessories, I feel like a RANK AMATEUR!
Thanx!
