whats this grader
gwest_ca-(File Mod) replied to Brockport Bill's topic in Implements and Attachments
Looks like this one -
If ever needed, I would not be opposed to putting a small one in this trailer. But I think we are to the point that the motorhome will be our refuge.

What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?
MainelyWheelhorse replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
My two neighbors are some of my literal family members so we get along great. And neither like myself, care if something gets moved in or around. An example being having temporary parking spot for a trailer etc… things are going great. -

Lubrication dilemma

IMO, the sealed bearings are the way to go. They keep the grease in where it is needed and keeps the dirt out. No need to fill a wheel hub with a pound of grease that makes a mess. The low RPM of these sealed bearings should insure a long life. -

Car AC problem/symptom and question
Blaine replied to wh500special's topic in non tractor related discussion
I’ve been wrenching professionally since the 80’s. I left Ford in 97. I was the only one that could read a schematic and got all warranty work after the others slurped all the gravy customer pay off of the ticket. Been with an independent ever since. So we have the joy of working on everything. Very little gets turned away. I’ve seen a lot over the past 4 decades. Unfortunately, since all cars have started to all look the same to me, i can’t recall who does what for many things, i just know it when i see it. Things that seemed like a great trouble-free way of doing it gets replaced by not so great ideas. I still attend training when something worthy comes around, and i read a lot to stay up to date or learn about something new to me in my bay when needed. We see a lot of F series and Explorers, and a few Escapes, but i’ve never come across this exploding bag of sand issue yet. Definitely will keep it in mind. I cut open another dryer, can’t remember what it was for, but the new condenser came with one so it wasn’t needed but they included it as a kit. It has the same larger size of desiccant, like I’ve always seen. -
Lubrication dilemma

They look good, I'm aware of the inner being stationary. Caught it in time I believe but I will definitely verify when I reassemble. -
Is this just and extra oil drain plug on bottom of block and has anyone been able to snug it up without taking motor loose from frame. I fixed the drain pipe to block while I had it tore down for some much needed preventive maintenance, But I missed this one. This is on a 520H and it is leaking some but looks like its blowed up with that drop or two of oil dripping and getting blown around
-
I agree. Someone really put some pressure on that blade. It appears to be really bent where the blade itself attaches to the quadrant, as well as the upper support frame is also bent. Probably fixable, but not without some reinforcements welded on.
-
Look for the ID tag. It should be on the dash support just under the dash.
-
Looks like a 67 era long frame with a engine not available on it. Engine has both a recoil and electric starter on it which I have never seen on a Kohler

Lubrication dilemma

Ken - how worn are the spindles - usually the bottoms?? Theh get worn by the inner race(s) spinning on the spindle when they should be stationary.... Regardless of what grease you use, the inner race needs to be non-rotating. You may have to address that fisst. -
A FrankenHorse??
-
Looks to have a lot of damage. Everthing is bent the frame blade and blade bracket. Worth more like scrap price. there is nothing to hold blade bracket in place if it ever had one'. It's going to take alot of work to fix it, and It won't work like it is.
-
You have to get that off the tag from the tractor before it could be identified properly. There are no decals showing and the engine is a replacement so there's no way of knowing exactly what you have.

Lubrication dilemma
Kenneth R Cluley posted a topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
I have decided to upgrade the wheel bearings on front wheels of Rear engine rider. The original flange "bearings" are Taiwan lets call flow through not sealed . The hub of wheel has a grease zerk and entire hub fills with grease until it flows through bearings and out side. I have purchased a sealed flange bearing and cannot decide if I should pull the shields and just pump it up till it flows through or flush out and pack with Pete approved Lucas high pressure and replace seals and not use zerk anymore. What do you geniuses recommend? I realize I would have to regrease on some maintenance interval either way. -
Car AC problem/symptom and question
adsm08 replied to wh500special's topic in non tractor related discussion
I don't claim to know everything, but I've been with Ford for 20 years, 10 of them as a Senior Master tech. -
We looked at those in comparison to the huge window unit we bought. I did not find the value in the mini split. The AC we bought was well under $1,000 and the mini split was going to be 2.5 times that or more. We know some people that have mini splits installed including the electrician that was going to do it. None of them are super pleased with the results they get under outside temps about 25°. That's pretty much the entire month of January and can spread another month either direction up here.

Low hour 418-A for sale. Nice tractor, bought it from Spin Jim a few years ago and he really took good care of it. Starts right up and runs great. Rear weights and chains for both wheels go with it. For another $100.00 I'll throw in the 42" snow plow.
-
I'm going to do a mini-split system in my garage mostly for a/c but also for heat too.
-
Yup - looka to be a 1965 to 1967 vintage. Not sure if the engine is original - maybe not...
