    I have an old Ford 501 sickle mower that I got up and running last yr, works great. Now my question is this.... can a hydraulic ram be added to this to raise and lower the cutter bar?

    hope to be warmer now

    Just got my new Femco weatherbreak installed last nite. Femco doesn't make one for a JD 3203, but the basic platforms for the 3120,3320, etc. are pretty close in size, so I figured what the heck and try one. It fits pretty well all in all. The only real problem was the door post, with it mounted...
