Michael....are you from jersey or ever lived there? I used to know a michael Pelligrino that worked for a software company in Jersey.... You don't really want a belly mower, unless your tracor is only for mowing. You are better off with a 3-point finish mower, slightly wider than your tracors wheels. I can back mine under stuff (swing set...Trees)that I couldn't with a belly mower . Most belly mowers make your 3-point lift useless, and are more expensive. An N doesn't have live PTO, but are very good tractors....they are small enough (don't take up much room in the garage, barn)and light enough (don't wreck up your lawn) , but they make a lousy loader tractor (too light, no power steering). A rear mounted 3-point scoop will do almost all a loader will do, except lift a load high enough to dump in a truck/trailer. I scrape out my barn, but I made a little retaining wall ramp, so I can dum into my spreader. For gardening (mulching, lifting and moving heavy stuff, etc.) they are very useful. Good Luck Steve
