Thanks for the feedback.
The photo in my signature is the machine in question though the bonnet, rear guard, Rear wheels and gearbox are all from a Rancher 2.
I think most people would agree that the 5 speed gearbox is better that the original 3 speed which is why I fitted the latter 5 speed.
I only installed the Rancher 2 rear guard as it has the correct size hole to suit the 5 speed gear box casing.
I did this so I wouldn't destroy the original rear guard just to fit the 5 Speed.
I will be sending photos when time permits but is there anything that will help to ID a Rancher 1.
I intend to take a photo of the steering wheel and bonnet (the original is now back on the machine) but if there is anything else I could be taking a photo of I will do so.
As I mentioned the machine has no ID plate which is normally attached to the side of the mower below the bonnet catches but not this machine.
I am just wondering what differences I could be looking for between the Rancher 1 and the 2.
