[AT] Over-running clutch for Ford 3600

[Dean Vinson]

Chuck, good point about the higher vantage point.  But that little 3600 is
nonetheless proving pretty addictive as a mowing tractor.   Easy to shift,
easy to back up, nice handy size, and as others previously pointed out the
live PTO via two-stage clutch works just fine.  And I do like the lower
center of gravity for my hillier areas.

One thing I discovered yesterday, though.  When you run the brushhog over a
bumblebees' nest and the tractor is in 2nd gear, giving it full throttle
doesn't much help in terms of outrunning the angry little things.

Great choice, Dean. It offers a much higher vantage point from which to see
such tall-grass-hidden things as rocks, baby calves, wash outs, etc.  Seems
a fair trade for the loss in duck-the-limbs clearance that comes with the
altitude. Also salute you on this worthy day for your Air Force service to
our country.
