Most of the parts for the Grass King are available from 
http://flailmaster.com/about.html And some are still available straight 
from Alamo. If it is a 3 point mount it is also likely to have the PTO 
mounted pump. Those were pretty well self contained. The local town has 
one that they use and it is pretty much a pin on unit.
