I did try to bend it back in line a few times.. almost but not quite. I bought that used set off ebay cheap, and now its lined up almost perfect.

yeah but where is the fun in that?
-
Ah, but how old are the tires on the rental???!!
-
I don't know if all model years are the same or not. Will guess at this one. Download the file and in it is a diagram for just the ignition. Easy to follow.

I run Goodyear and change every 5 years or so... Plus I think anecdotally, the quality is not what it used to be... I am actually thinking of selling my trailer and just renting one when I need it... 2-3 times a year ain't worth tires bearings and storage... probably won't but ...

That's why you see the tire cover booties on motorhomes & campers. There is no excuse not to check & adjust the cold tire pressures before heading out.... and being adequately prepared to loose one (or two) along the way. Besides, do you really want to listen to your better half constructively carring on (whining) while you change a flat??

Best to stay away from the off-brand not-made-around-here cheap knockoffs. Unless you want to do the job over... Note the CR ad gives a Speedi-Sleeve P/N too. Great to fix a gouged up shaft. -
I was not operating it, but in the middle of a mow it shut off like someone turned the key. Once we towed it back, it just starts and within 2 sec dies. If I hold the key in the start position, magically it still runs. Seat switch is good as I have parking brake fully set. I jumped the switch just to be sure. Oil level is at F. Not sure how to check further.

I have one of these and the belt is now missing. It is a 42" SD deck. Anyone know the part #? Thanks.

Right?? They say the sun does more damage than anything.

I have also experienced the dreaded blow out and "collateral damage". I bit the bullet and got the Endurance for both my trailers that get used most often but put chinesium's on the travel trailer that we don't move from our property possibly two to three times a year. Difficult for me to replace a tire at three or five years that shows little or no wear, but I guess that's the price we pay for peace of mind. I feel better on the highway towing with the Goodyears. We had a flat then a blowout on travel trailer (spare was really old) and thought "Good Sam" roadside would save us. They quoted $795.00 and three hour wait to bring me a Walmart trailer tire. So remember to upgrade spare as well.

-

It's a new belt but it twisted when it jumped the pulley. Now it has a bad twist in it and will not work.

Hi, I need some help finding a solution for the spindle housings on my Wheel Horse. The tractor is a 1976 Wheel Horse C-120 Automatic, model 1-0481, with a 48” side discharge mower deck. The original spindle housings are getting worn out and soon I won’t be able to keep them alive anymore. I would like to replace them with new parts if possible. Does anyone know if there is an aftermarket or newly manufactured spindle housing that fits this deck? It does not have to be a Wheel Horse part, as long as it fits and works. I have attached pictures of the mower deck and the parts diagram. Any help or experience would be greatly appreciated.

So the enclosed trailer that @Achto and I took out to the BS needs new shoes in ST205-75R 15 but on the fence about what to get. If money was no object I would get Goodyear Endurance but at $186 a tire it's a tough pill to swallow for a trailer that sits most of the time. Or go with a cheaper probably offshore one. The price range on tires is so wide... $70 apiece to $190. No matter what brand load range D speed rating 80 minimums. Keep in mind I have three tandems to keep shoes on plus two singles. Camper toy hauler always gets the premiums do to the damage that is possible with a blow out. @Pullstart and @jeremi3210 might know a thing or two about that. Trailer gurus say change tires every three years with better ones every five years. I do generally carry a spare especially on long hauls. Pics for attention.

SKF seal #9815 is the seal that you need for the brake drum, it is the same as the axle seals on 1 inch axles. -
MY FIL was a Mechanic at a local Chevrolet Dealership for many years prior to me meeting him. HE was the Corvair guy. He had already opened is own one man Shop when I started dating my future wife.... The customers followed too, seems there was always one of those waterless-wonders up on stands with the engine out... My Wife's first car was a Corvair - a white 64 hardtop - but then she bought her own 65 Mustang... that was more upscale. Except in the winter. The Corvair had little issue going thru 6" of snow; the Mustang got parked if there were more than a dusting.

Gulp Ther was a guy at the BS that told Wild Bill at the parade he had 400. I think he was the guy kitty corner from Squonks corner with all the mid mount blades. There fixed that. There fixed that too ...
