John Deere 3235C/Jacobson HR5111 - 134" Mower Build! - 05/07/2020 04:33 AM
I am taking the decks and some of the hydraulics off of a Jacobson HR5111 and mounting them on a John Deere 3235C reel mower. The hoped output is a John deere Jacobson hydrid that mows 134"
I bought both machines last year and am just now getting around to starting this. So far I have the John deere running and driving and it's hydraulics working to the old reel connection locations.
The Jacobson had a blown engine have the decks removed and am working on getting it ready to weld together to make 1 machine. I will load some pics soon and try to update as I build it out.
I am also using the 4 wheel drive axle from the Jacobson and mounting it on the Deere. It is partly because I am having to stretch the Dere to make the decks fit, and I want to make sure the machine has enough traction.
