[AJD] JD rake part

[Bruce Mahr]

Louis: The brand name was Arnold which is an aftermarket manufacturer of 
small engine and lawn mower parts. I don't know where they are from or how 
wide a distribution area they serve. I'll try to look to see where they are 
from the next time I'm in there.
This I think is like a thatcher attachment for a mower blade, so should be 
available anywhere I would think.
