Karl: Speaking of machining and modifications, I have some other thoughts on what to do with my 130, however I'm not sure these are the answer either.
My 130 is equipped with one point fast hitch, and I have thought of removing the touch control unit completely, then fabricating a reservoir that would fit in it's place, leaving room on top and under fuel tank for a triple spool valve, double action with float on each valve. I could then use one valve for blade, one for hitch lift and the 3rd one for hitch depth control. This would require 3 remote cylinders, the 3 spool valve, plumbing and the reservoir. Probably set me back $1,500. I already have a 3 point hitch kit I use for a disk that is too much load for the tractor, both pulling and lifting. Since I only do 5 hours disking each year, plus plow snow out of my driveway, it would make sence to sell the 130, buy an H, SH or 300 with 3 point or fast hitch, install a snow blade, probably revenue neutral. But then if you play with old iron like I do, one does not always do things that make sence.
