    Side shot Saturday... AND SUNDAY !

    Hey Don , how about a picture of you wheeling around the basement on the pedal tractor. I'm sure your wife wouldn't mind taking the picture with Lucy shaking her head while she observes. I'm sure they have seen it all at this stage of the game.@c-series don

    Side shot Saturday... AND SUNDAY !

    I recently did a little clean up and painting in my basement which required rearranging a few tractors. So I figured I’d snap a few pictures for you boys!! You can see the doorway that I bring the tractors through in the back of the first and second picture. The ramps to get up the stairs are under the tractors in the last picture. Unfortunately the opening is not wide enough to get tractors with the wide rims and 23x10.50’s on them. I’d love to put my LSE and Work Horse down there but I’d have to switch tires just to do that. That’s too much work and then I feel like they would never come back out.

    Well Eric, at 5:15 this morning we got dispatched to a car accident. Car into a pole wires down.No doubt because it’s snowing, probably someone going to fast. Anyway while I was waiting for other guys to get to the firehouse I happened to remember I told you I’d take pictures of the rear of the trailer. So here you go, hope this helps?!

    What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

    Got a set o' those here too. They were in the pile when we picked up the Workhorse GT1800 we built for our friends. They now set on The Ugly Bruce tractor. Excellent traction aids.

    Bolt Depot in Hingham MA has em. Order online. Those thick washers and the studs and nuts for wheels are part of our constant stock in the Parts department here.

    I've seen that too. Neat set up.

    Got another one. A 416 this time.

    @JCM You and Cleat both got some niiiiice rigs. @cleat that front end alignment set up is the cat's meeeyoww. Nicely done. Beautiful tractor. That can NOT be overstated.

    What do you use.

    I was looking at that one Mike, but looks like some fab work would have to be done. I just did not want to deal with that. Thanks for the reply.
  15. Retired Wrencher

    What do you use.

    I agree to that Mike 100%. But there better than the stock round Kohler muffler in my opinion.
  16. Retired Wrencher

    What do you use.

    That is the one Mike. For what they are there not a bad muffler. I have in the past cut the bottom of a little to get rid of the two cut outs. It makes it look a little better.
  17. Retired Wrencher

    What do you use.

    That gravely points down Mike.I have been looking and it always seems to point back to the gravely muffler for ease of install. Thanks for the post.

    Ag Tire Width Preference 10.5 or 8.5 ???

    IMHO.... it won't matter for FUNCTION. We've tried a bunch of different tires & tractors & setups over the years. They all work fine - given the correct set up. So go for looks. Personally I prefer a wider tire for two reasons. 1. I like the aesthetics. To me, a wider tire looks better. 2. The FUNCTIONAL part... a wider tire can hold more fluid. More fluid is more weight is more traction. My experience shows me that you NEED to separate the chore list here by way of proper preparation. For snow ❄️ an AG tires is not the best choice. Functional. But not ideal because the chains will set down in between the tire bars. This I've never done. Perhaps @Pullstart @Achto or @WHX?? can answer.
  19. Going to fit a set of ag tires and have rims for either 23x8.5x12 or 23x10.5x12. Duty - Farm chores pulling trailers, mowing, pushing snow and moldboard plowing. Recommendations? Thanks!
  20. I like the 2k primer that gassing problem goes away. my bad and this one I don't know if you ever tried this on single stage paint, I like putting two coats of clear enamel on as two final coat of color. Apply 10 minutes or so after the last color coat. It can be buffed and adds UV protection too. Only available in spray cans tho.

    @WHX?? I’m still on the hunt for a PTO-66. I have absolutely zero use for one of those but being a WH collector and considering the rarity of those units it’s something I’d like to add to my collection. There’s a good video on YouTube of a guy running a grain elevator with one of them.

    What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

    Oops. Ran into a bit of a glitch in painting my 522xi fender. It looked reasonably good until I noticed some areas where the paint wrinkled and/or orange-peeled a bit. I had allowed extra drying/curing time for the primer to make up for the relatively low temperatures in the shop, but I guess it wasn't quite enough time. I'll be more patient this time and wait at least a week before I wet sand the rough spots, plus at least an additional week before applying a second application. I'll set the shop temperature a few degrees warmer as well. On the plus side, the next coat(s) should be even smoother, and there's no big rush, since there are several other parts of the tractor that I can work on in the meantime. If it had been a bigger paint job, I might have used 2K primer and paint. Maybe some other time.

    Payment Methods

    I purchased a Senior lifetime pass US citizens for (I think) ten dollars. They are also good for discount camping at CoE campgrounds. One time at campground check-in, I forgot my pass and they had them on site so I bought a second one for ten dollars--cheaper than driving back home to retrieve my original. I carry one and the other in the safe in the event I loose the original.
