Don,
Nice pictures. I never realized a D17 could go that wide! After the post about the tip-over and recent death, I am thinking about setting the wheels on my D17 out a notch.
Nice looking tractor.

No Mike I have not replaced the pin and bushing in the front end yet, but it is coming in the shop next then your old planter will go through refit. looks like I will have all the parts to make the planter work like new again.
Yes I have been shopping your EQ line, you have been real good to me on my needs too.

Don...Don't forget what we talked about on that D17 when it comes up for sale...you do remember,right? Ol' buddy! LMAO! Can't believe that you forgot about that so soon.
Mike...You mean he isn't just storing the equipment for you there? Hmmm! You know...he's going to have that big huge building ready pretty soon! Should have room for lots of AC stuff! LOL! Rick
