I bought a Honda 520 Pioneer last summer. I dont need some huge SxS so it works for my needs. I like that its just under 50" wide so I can ride it on most standard atv trails. Added a roof & side mirrors. Mostly use it around town as my city allows it on secondary roads. I can dodge the street legal requirements by simply having the SMV triangle on the rear. My 80yr old mom has one to & she is able to manage it just fine. Shes approximately 100lbs & has no issues with not having power steering.

On the high end for sure unless it's mint. Plow brackets are usually around if you need one. Good Luck

Thanks for the replies guys, I'll give it a go and let you know. New seal should arrive tomorrow.

Onan.... look at the condition of the dreaded 9 pin connector in the wiring harness closely. Perhaps even seperate the halves to look at the condition (ask first). It is the source of the majority of starting / charcing problems due to high resistance over the years that melts it.....

Easy short frame transmission pad repair
ri702bill replied to Bert's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
I also sell a reinforcing plate kit that I highly recomend being welded into the bare frame. I provide a template where to drill 3/8" diameter holes to allow plug welding from the backside in 8 or so locations. I did my 854 that way close to a dozen years ago with NO issues. -
Owners manual for C-105 & 36" Rear mower
gwest_ca-(File Mod) replied to C-85's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
1982 tractor operator manual and an earlier manual that has service info that applies to many years and models. -
Richard I believe my 64 k 241 has that short pan. So I’m assuming that takes 2 quarts?
-
Put a handle/ grab bar of some sort on there. The first time my wife rode on our sulky, I let out the clutch and she almost fell off backwards.

Jim good info there.I usually use a measuring cup. That way you know it’s correct.

Pull out the dip stick wipe clean then lay on the block next to the fill hole. A true way to check your oil.

It was buy a member here that he did some research on this. At one time it was hard to buy in bulk of W30 weight to save on $$ s.

Getting back into WH after a few years and a 520H has popped up locally I'll be checking out. 93/94 maybe (controls on the column) 700-900 hours, refreshed 48" deck and a snow blade. Asking price is $3000 but after browsing the classifieds it looks like this is at the higher end of the price range. Apparently it's had the hydraulic pump replaced, which I'm interpreting as the Eaton 1100. It sounds like maintenance has been kept up, and the pictures reflect this. When I go to look at it I'll be checking for the usual leaks and smoke, as well as any valve train noise from the Onan and confirm it's got the plow bracket on the rear axle. Any other specifics to check out? Anyone have recent data points to compare for pricing?

16hp vangaurd side cover on an 18hp?
horseman with no horse replied to horseman with no horse's topic in Engines
upon looking at the parts breakdown the o rings for the side cover on my particular model 30 and 35 use different numbers and are in fact different upon visual inspection so they arent compatible. -
Amen to that. Priceless

Plus quality time with a brother ...

Thanks Jim, it was a worthwhile trip to say the least. A 16 Auto with a lot of potential, ARK 500 (which will likely go on my c165), two 48" decks which will make one good one, rear wheel weights, front wheel weights, a pair of Carlisle turf tires never been mounted, and two Stihl chainsaws (the third one I need to service and return in July), plus a handful of other odds and ends for essentially $2k. I got my brother's generator running and tuned up after we rebuilt the retaining wall so there was a bit of work and I burned a bunch of gas but all in all a great trip. Some work in front of me now though but I'm good with it!

One thing nice about our horses of a different color is if it doesn't grow on you one can always change it. -

To each his own but definitely not my cup of tea... I use Rustoleum Canvas White. -

Pullstart replied to Pullstart's topic in non tractor related discussion
The new coach has a smaller profile tire, these will not fit proper. They are Colleen’s for the foreseeable future -
Welcome to the FEL club. I think you did good on the price. Couple of guys here know a thing or two about hydraulics if you have issues. The number one thing about leaks is overtighting fittings.

Easy short frame transmission pad repair
Bert replied to Bert's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
Thanks, that one in your pic looks strong. Some additional reinforcement on mine wouldn’t hurt. I normally would do a proper repair but I was actually wondering if I could weld that in and noticed the bolt holes lined up. -
