    Great job on the re-power. Those flail mowers are beasts! When you showed the flails it looked like they are the "L" shaped ones, you might see if "T" shaped ones are available when you need to change out the fails as I believe they are a bit heavier and might cut better.

    Nice repower. Maybe you could rig up a way to offset the tongue when needed to mow closer to trees/fencing and keep the rider out of the way. I'm building a "pull behind" mower soon and I'm going to give it a shot.
