I think for the sucker I would require the same coupling as a backhoe?
Welcome to TBN
Yes, more info needed...does the rockshaft lever mover freely? Is the linkage that connect the lever to the tranny damaged? Can you manually lift the arms?
As for the "leaf sucker", I have never heard of that, and a google search of AMV8 just turned up Aston Martin info...and I don't think they made implements. Is it from JD? But it sounds like you need another rear remote.
With the amount of info you have giving, it wont get much better.is everyone else as stmped as me?
