I found this on craigslist for $2500. Its a 2005 Rayco 1625A Super Jr. Had to drive 2 hrs to get it. Changed all the fluids. Needs a little TLC yet (welding some cracks in some guards) and maybe some rayco yellow paint. Hour meter doesn't work but I am guessing by the wear that it has about 600 hrs on it. It has 900 series green teeth on it.

Are you kidding me?! For 2500.00 you stole that!! Even with repairs and paint,
Great buy!!
 
Yeah, as you see it sitting there. I dont know why it has the 900 series greenteeth on it. From what I have read, it should have the 700 series on it because the engine size is a 25 hp Kohler. I am gonna get some new teeth for it, but I dont know weather to get the red or the green ones.

I still use the rayco superteeth (have them re-tipped right down the road for cheap) so i couldn't tell ya. you still got a great deal on that grinder tho

Unless u are in soil with little or no rocks go with the green. Even old landscape beds with gravel or river rock in em will put a whipping on the reds pretty fast.
And oh ya....great buy!

We still run the superteeth too, where do you have them re-tipped? How do they perform and how much does it cost? We have a bunch of used ones at the shop.

I take them to a place called Jensco, a tool sharpening place on rt. 6 just east of rt. 306. I have my chipper knives done their also. I think it's 8$ per tooth, about 3 or 4 $ less then a new one. they cut the old tip off and re-weld a new cutting tip on. I only do this with my small machine tho, the big grinder will sometimes break the welded tips right off, but they perform like a brand new tooth.

He originally want $4300, but he was moving to ohio in a couple days, and didnt really have the room to take it with him. He also had a f250 2wd pickup for sale really cheap.
