Hello all, Im new to the forum and I look foward to posting and working with my Power King. I just purchased a 1980"s 2418. Serial # 57845 I got a dozer plow a 5 ft mower deck and a 3 pt hitch with it. Im pretty sure it was a one owner tractor. My goal is to install a bucket loader as soon as I can. It has turf tires, not sure about these, my property is hilly and It was slippin up the front yard hill today, although it was real wet. It seems to gring when you put in gear, not sure what thats bout. I plan to install the 3 point hitch. The mower deck need to be put back together, It had a crack in that has a welded repair. I have tons of questions. Anyway, I live upstate NY, Kingston to be exact, I drive tractor trailer for a living. We own our homw and it sits on an acre of hilly clay!! So, there you have it for now. By the way, you all can call me Buster.
