Great find, ran a 499 for years. The only down side with them, is til you get used to them, watching the reel tends to want to cross your eyes:) I agree with what was said about the bolt on sections, saves alot of hassle. Also check prices on a sickle bar vs replacing alot of worn sections on the old ones. It may suprise you that the whole new bar could be cheeper. Another thing to check is, unbolt the sickle bar on the machine and slide it out. If it slides in and out freely chances are you got a good machine. Up here in the gopher state, we have alot of them, and machines that have been used hard and put away wet often are bent up along the bottom edge of the platform. This causes drag on the sickle bar and raises heck with the gearbox. Good Luck Brokenwrench
