Hi All,
I found a John Deere offset mower for $1900 and am trying to find more information about it to see if it's a good buy. It almost looks like a finish mower, but I'd like to use it to mow ditches along my parents' driveway. Please see the (tiny) pictures attached.

Thanks,
Ross

I was finally able to get more information about the mower and larger pictures. The offset mower consists of two parts - a regular 60" John Deere mid-mount finishing mower deck which has been modified to attach to the arm (NOT 3-point) which bolts to the rear axle housing and replaces the top-link hole on a John Deere 955. According to the seller the arm is made by some company in Wisconsin, but I couldn't see any branding. I took measurements while I was there, and am going to see if I can hook this thing up to my Kubota BX 2660. (I have a feeling the arm is too long so puts the mower deck too far away from the tractor, which would leave a wide swath of uncut grass if I tried to use both my 60" MMM and this at the same time.)

See the large pictures attached for more details.

I know this is an old thread, and the idea sure is cool; but I'd want some counterweight on the right side regardless of how it attaches to the tractor.
