They come up on epay now and then, Reed. I have a 110 square fender with a tiller also and of course some previous owner lost the mule drive. Cheapest one I saw quite some time ago now was over 200 bucks. I keep hoping to run across the dimensions for one so maybe I could try to build it. Too cheap to pay that much when I have less than that in the tractor, with a mowing deck and front blade that all work fine.
So far so good.The whole family now works for Walmart.I am in management and my son will be soon to I believe .We all even work for the same store so its kinda fun at break time.Other employees kid us about having our own table ! There are 4 of us working there and our shifts all overlap .Not that I love walmart but people who think walmart doesnt pay anything would be surprised.I get $20 an hour now with my first raise coming in april plus bonuses. (They can be as high as $5.000 in my position and I finally have healthcare lots of paid time off and generally work a 40 hour week .And I am not salary .I would never do a salary job again,Did that twice in my life and got screwed both times..I found 1 mule drive on ebay for $350 so far,I am not gonna pay that much either.If I dont find one this year I will pay the local guy to till up the garden till I can get one.I am going to try to make it to garden tractor daze in Portage Wisconsin this summer,My whole family lives around that area and thats where I grew up .We still have a cottage on Swan lake a few miles from Portage so I may make a mini vacation out of it.
You have a picture of this mule drive you're looking for Reed ?
It would be worth buying one just to get the specs to fab them like you mentioned then sell it to get your money back.Here's one on steal-bay, I mean eBay.

another,
WOW, if it's just two pulley's spaced apart with a bracket, fabbing one up and offering it for $225, people would have a nice small income.
Make about 10 or 12 per year. And if other models are slightly different fab those too. I can see a market for these things for a retired person to make.

For me, yeah. Since I don't actually need a tiller, not willing to spend that much for something that won't get used anyway. @reedb66 probably should jump on it though so he can start tilling a garden!Shipping might make this too high. It’s in Brimfield, Illinois
