Friend of mine has 2 Farmall Cubs, JD 320, 4 wheeler and riding mower. Drives them all. Has both legs gone above the knee. All the controls are shop made and clamp onto the pedals-no modifications to the original tractor parts. Have not looked at them in detail. He has swivel cantilever with electric hoist in the yard and rolls his chair alongside the tractor, moves over into sling seat from the hoist, lifts with hoist and then swivels into the tractor seat.

Takes chair to the lawn mower shed and gets directly on the mower. Never has pity parties.
