A guy asked me last night if there were belly mowers made for the WD or wd45. I got thinking I have never seen one. I'm sure a b or c one could be modified and maybe easily to fit. Anyone have one or seen one? ------------- When someone tells you Nothings Impossible, Tell them to slam a revolving door |

A friend of mine has one on his WD. Don't know the make, but know he used to use it to mow his lawn. ------------- Looking at the past to see the future. '53 WD, '53 WD45, WD snap coupler field cultivator, #53 plow,'53 HD5B dozer Duct tape.... Can't fix stupidity. But will muffle the sound of it! |

| Woods L306 fits a WD 45 I've only ever seen one, it's the same mower as used on the B/C with differant mounts. I dought you'll ever find one used but you can still get one from Woods. You'll have to order it and be prepared to wait till they make it. When I ordered a new one for my C it took five weeks to get it.and $2500. My neighbor ordered a new one last year for his Farmall he said it took a month and cost $2800. The new woods was the best money I've spent on yard equipment. In the 15 year I've had it it's only needed grease and a couple belts. I prefer a narrow front for mowing it's nicer for mowing around trees. |

The mower decks are all the same but all the mounting hardware and drive pulley is totally different. I have seen a few on a WD but the gas you save using a CA would pay for the mower in a few years time

There's a Woods L-306 for a WD/WD-45 for sale now on the Louisville Craigs list .
I have 2 306's on 2 CA's and they are good mowers.

I agree. WD/45s are too big and thirsty to have a belly mower under them. A CA is smaller and much more maneuverable, which is ideal for a lawn - not something big and clumsy. ------------- '49 G, '54 WD45, '55 CA, '56 WD45D, '57 WD45, '58 D14, '59 D14, '60 D14, '61 D15D, '66 D15II, '66 D21II, '67 D17IV, '67 D17IVD, '67 190XTD, '73 620, '76 185, '77 175, '84 8030, '85 6080 |

| Always have a center roller on that mower if you use it on a WD-45. You'll eat a lot of drive belts mowing uneven ground as the engine has too much power for the mowers drive belt. |

Have had this one for about ten years, power steering makes this work great. New belt right after i got it. Guess i am lucky with the belt! Cant imagine it would use that more gas than a ca. Got the belt from Motion Ind. Didnt right down the number, half price as from Woods, and just as good. I mow roads sides and around sheds on the farm. ------------- CA WD WD45 D17 D17 Diesel 7060 8050 8070 |

Here is a picture of my mowers. The first is a 1952 WD that came from my Granddad Curless' AC dealership in Liberal, Missouri. It has a Woods L306 mower on it with factory power steering. It is a sweet mowing machine. http://s384.photobucket.com/user/crowebar2/media/IMG_2978_zpsffiaxvvj.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  The next is my 1939 B with a Woods L59 on it. I've mowed with that tractor for 15 years or so and it is also a great little mower. http://s384.photobucket.com/user/crowebar2/media/Allis%20Chalmers%20Tractors%20%20Implements/1939B.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  This is my 1956 WD45 with factory power steering and an 82S mower for the pond banks. http://s384.photobucket.com/user/crowebar2/media/Allis%20Chalmers%20Tractors%20%20Implements/WD45Mowers004.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  Then I have 2 712S garden tractors with mowers and some other attachments. All in all great mowers for the various applications. http://s384.photobucket.com/user/crowebar2/media/Allis%20Chalmers%20Tractors%20%20Implements/712S.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  ------------- The 14th Annual Exclusive AC Swap Meet will be held in Boonville, MO, March 7-8, 2025.

I've got a WD mount for Woods L306 sitting in my barn collecting dust. Might part with it for the right price.
