Where the heck was 953 nut this time?
WHX?? replied to 953 nut's topic in non tractor related discussion
Get a scanner Kev and if there is a call and snow head out. Give the EMTs and head honcho fire guy yer phone #. Yeah lotta times it might be an old coot like Richard who can't get out to plow even days after big snow. Post a note down to the senior center if someone's got problems... and unlike Richard stay away from the hot blue hairs ... -

There fixed that ... Be real careful with that eli crap Richard. I was on it for a bit and told the doc I want off it. I'd go out in the shop and one little micro owie and would bleed like a stuck pig. Unreal .. I ran clean out of shop rags & black tape bandages. Doc says quit wrenching ... told him where to go. He didn't quite get it when I joked about getting the wrong red on a tractor. Good to hear your home again those gals down to the senior center were startin to complain... -
Good to see the correct clamp position. Never saddle a dead horse

Good luck with your new to. Any issues with it lots of pros here. Lot of good info here on deuces not to mention 520s. I'll third that and when it is lifted it hangs to one side which I think they all do. I very seldom lift it when blowing just when heading to the barn.

IDK, that dragon looks pretty confident! -

@Pullstart Why in the world would you do this? Both of these transmissions were co-developed with Ford and are basically mechanically the same as their 6R80 and 10R80, and let me tell you, I would never trade a 6R for a 10R. NEVER. I have rebuilt one 6R ever and it was high miles. I am currently rebuilding my third -60K mile 10R THIS YEAR. And that's since 1/1/26, not in the past 12 months, I've done about 10 of them in the last 12 months.

That might explain this little guy.

For all we know, she could have a couple of V8s being rebuilt in there and TOLD Dan he could have that little spot in the corner to play with his tractor stuff! LOL -
We may be a bunch of but we all are family and we stick by each other in good times and bad. Good caring people here on Even if we every now and again.

Apparently she (semi) stood her ground and kept some of her knickknacks there too because I see more parts that didn't make it to the drying table! -
So I says Dan we gonna paint on Saturday? ( I forgot it was V day) He says yep I had her move everything to Friday. WTF is he talking about? Oh he had her move her V day festivities to Friday so is he can paint! I say what festivities?? He obviously has not been married long enough.

Most of the time I don't even lift it up when backing up while doing snow.
-
Safe bet that the 520-H will have an Eaton 1100! Je parie en toute sécurité que le 520-H aura un Eaton 1100 !
-
Mine is the same. I have a 44” two stage on a 417-A. I’ve never really had the need to lift it higher, as long as it’s up a few inches for transport or backing up it has worked fine for me.

I’m not sure if the ambulance/fire dept in your area is Volunteer or not. Here they are all volunteer but separate organizations. I donated one plowing and salt-sanding per year. The rest I charged for. I didn't feel bad about charging for my services, because I volunteer plenty of hours a year with the fire department. If I were you I’d go to the firehouse and or ambulance station and let them know that you are willing to help in this aspect. If you decide to do this, let me know how you make out. I’m curious to know what they do in other areas. -
My wife's favorite part of restoration season is when I bring my painted parts in the house to cure for a week or maybe two. This year it was soon enough to say that I decorated for Valentine's Day. Just look at all the pretty red & white knickknack's that we have on display.

We have friends in north Missouri that utilized a gas well on their farm for 30 or 40 years. A couple of years ago, I believe, the government shut them down. I don't remember the exact reason but they surely miss the heated apron in front of the garage as well as heated garage and shop.

Honestly after all the 'dust settled' and the funeral was done, I found myself really needing to do something with my hands. I had just sold off a lot of my collection that previous fall, and I found I really needed to get back into restoring tractors and rebuilding engines. I really found it therapeutic to just get my mind into something else. I also knew my boy was looking over my shoulder the whole time, and still is! That's just something that worked for me.. All the best to you and your family!

We're kind of a big extended family here. Many of us share our good times as well as our bad.

We've got plenty of pictures of our son that passed away 18 years ago. What I miss is hearing his voice. We had his cell phone with his videos but when it became obsolete, we lost his videos. Even now, I can feel a hollowness creeping into my being from time to time. Pam and I learned that her mourning was different from mine and we had to give each other grace. We'll be praying for "a peace that passeth understanding" during this most difficult time

BADGE CLIP FOR tractor clip
peter lena replied to peter lena's topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
@JoeM thanks for the look, as usual always making up / trying something / anything for an issue . as you squeeze that clip onto the tapered lever , the narrower end holds that clip , , even the lip on the clip assists the tight hold , regularly use a 1/8 " nylon cord , match melted ends , for very secure tie offs , since doing this no key issues , pete -

How can I find out about this in my area? I plow voluntarily probably more often than I’m paid for, and I’d love to be able to help in times of need like this! I’m so glad he let you come home! I am not a doctor, obviously. However, I don’t understand why they don’t start on a low dosage like half the normal rate for a couple days, then reevaluate. I know that some people need meds, and I’ll likely be that person some day, but it seems wise to ease into something rather than dive in head first. -
Looks good. A tip for spraying - Run a chain through the hitch pin hole, & hang it up. This allows you access to the whole thing when painting.

Got warm enough to get some primer on the transmission, looks like enough warm weather next week to get some red sprayed.
