JASinPA,
If you can change the oil and oil filter, spark plugs and air cleaner, you should have no problem installing the clevis hitch and rear attachamatic. The instructions are in the two owner's manuals of the clevis hitch and rear attachamatic. The rear attachamatic connects to the rear axle housing. The clevis hitch is interchangeable with the rear hitch pin drawbar. I posted two pictures showing the rear of my 520xi showing the rear attachamatic and clevis hitch.
I have been using the Ag tires with wheel weights and chains year round for the past two years. I prefer to using the Ag tires then the turf tires when plowing snow and using ground engaging attachments. The Ag tires do make some tracks in the grass at this time of the year when the ground is very soft, but nothing to drastic that would stop me from using them.
I'm just to lazy in changing tires, chains and wheel weights inbetween plowing snow, mowing grass and using ground engaging attachments in the garden. I would look for used attachments in your local paper, Ebay and on lawn and garden tractor websites. Where do you live at in PA? I live in northeastern Ohio.
