 Re: GTR 35?
I don't want one. It's cast like a mudbuddy.

 Re: GTR 35?
I like that fact that you are only greasing compact bearings with a floating shaft now, less drag. Ton less grease to be consumed.

 Re: GTR 35?
I guess time will tell if they will hold up. I know how well the old one has held up running stumps. The cast one better be tough. I'm sure they have done a lot of testing or they wouldn't be using them, or at least I hope they have.
