Yes it's for hanging the rear of the deck mule drive off of. I would encourage you to leave it on to avoid losing it. A vital piece if you want to put a deck on. Any luck with the SG light? Just so you know the original gas tanks are pretty available if you want to go that route.

Rj58 winter project

Did a little bit more tonight to it -
Any pics Buckeyes? Are they considered rare then and worth the asking prices? I would love to have one. Patinaed or restored im not picky. A guy Dan and I know has one but afraid to ask if he wants to part with it. Think this is a '58. Almost as fun as a Amigo to drive.

Would have been nice to have in the tool box back when I had the IH model H of maybe the M, But would that count a s two lost tools or only one?

My garage was put up back in the 1920's so there is only about 7' to the bottom of the 2X6 rafter. Knowing that it's bad to over work a back I needed a lifting point for a host/chain fall, So I went with 10' of un-a-strut and there 600# cap. trolleys, welded 2X3X6 " angle iron on top the the Un-a-strut to line up with the sides of each of the rafters, Drilled a 1/2" hole in each end of the angle iron and bolted them to the rafters. hooked my com a long to the trolley and now I can lift what ever I want and move it where ever I want along the 10' of rail. Worked so well that I did the same with a shorter run from the center of the garage to go over my work bench. Then I got a hoyer 400# patient lift , replace the casters with some bigger ones so I can use it in the drive way . spent about $50.00 on the Unistrut and trolley, $100.00 on the hoyer lift . ( now if only I can get people off my back )

I used stainless when I put them back in but hindsight being 2020 I should have used anti seize. Assembled with the tank on the bench and then on the tractor to avoid taking the filter off. If changing the filter best to slide the tank in and bolt it. Kind of a pain to get the filter housing bolts started otherwise. Left the stand bolt out to vent when topping off but overfilled and tranny oil all over anyway.
-
I ended up removing that left side bracket, flipping the tank over and dousing the bolt with PB Blaster. It eventually (with help of gravity) went down into the threads.

That sure is purdy...

Thank you sir. It is definitely a keeper. Has a few scratches and spots that need a touch up, but definitely one of my favorites. The front weights are about 4 feet away from it. I'll stick them back on when I finish it up. I thought it was all done but the electric clutch wobbles really bad and when driving it around today it started spitting oil from around the fuel pump. So this weekend it's getting an electric pump. The clutch can wait...

Got the hubs pulled off today and everything is in great shape keyways axle keys all of it. Not even sure I will want to pull it apart when I get to this tractor as I don't think any of the bearings are bad either axle bearings still feel tight. The only reason for me to pull it apart is replace the limited slip spring and just to see the condition of the gears. But I have a question on seals has anyone had experience using the napa seals on these tractors NOS 11050 napa seal is called a manual steering pitman arm seal. Specs are Inside Diameter 1.125 Outside Diameter 1.379 in Width 0.125 Specs on cr/skf 11050 Shaft diameter 1.125 in Housing bore diameter 1.3752 in Seal width 0.125 in Is that .0038 of a difference in outside diameter enough to not work? NOS 7410 napa seal Inside Diameter 0.75 Outside Diameter 1.004 in Width 0.125 Cr/skf 7410 Shaft diameter 0.75 in Housing bore diameter 0.9988 in Seal width 0.125 in Same thing outer diameter is different Is that because one is actual seal outside diameter and the other is the bore diameter? NOS 6105 napa seal Inside Diameter 0.625 Outside Diameter 0.816 in Width 0.094 Cr/skf 6105 Shaft diameter 0.6252 in Housing bore diameter 0.8118 in Seal width 0.094

No I only had the 2. A 1957 with phenomenal patina, and a restored 1959. Both sold. I did have a bunch of parts though that my good friend @Chris Gtook off my hands!

@kpinnc Every time I see that tractor I love it! It just looks bad ass! Duel spool valves, and a 3-point hitch 👍🏻Where are the front weights?

I went through this while restoring my C-175. Finally after soaking it and moving the bolt back and forth slightly for a week or more I got frustrated and yanked on it knowing that I had another tank. The bolt just spun in the tank, so I cut the head off and threw out the tank. I might have been more patient had I not had another tank, but I kept thinking why am I getting so frustrated with this when I should just cut the bolt and move on.

Not trying to hijack @Racinbob classifield but if you need one of those carbs Bill I think I have a few. Pm me if interested. -
Finally got the new heater installed in the garage so now it’s comfortable to work in there. Got the belt guard painted that I got from @Easton Rich probably 2 weeks ago and it’s just been sitting inside. Today we turned the heater on and brought the tractor inside. Mounted up the belt guard and installed the fuel tank I decided to use. And finished up routing the fuel line and installed shut off and filter. Too dark to see of it drives so the maiden voyage will be tommorow. Also, in the last picture there is a weird little round piece that went on the foot peg. I’m thinking it’s for a mower deck? I took it off as I have no use for it.

512 D. This is a tricky one; I've been telling my customers for years that when all of the information was transferred from books to microfiche everything was good. When it got put on computer for the dealers, everything was originally pretty good. Things got really screwed up when it went online. Things got consolidated and many things got deleted or overlooked. This particular item never showed up on the printed PAL attachment and accessory books. It is however on the old microfiche ( please excuse the crappy pictures ) . -
They are cool tractors. @Buckeyes had a couple of them, maybe even more??

@ 953nut started walking around the entire local walmart outer edge of parking lot . found it to be safe , no car /traffic issues at all , when I started doing that , always included walking backward , very good for balance and surgical recovery , that also burns calories at a quicker rate , stop , stretch , bend twist , made up my own regular walk . obviousely it takes time , but today , always add distance to my walking , I can remember when it all hurt ,not any more , pete
