@johnnymag3 when you say Eddie Murphy do you mean like Eddie Murphy, Eddie Murphy? Probably not the Eddie Murphy I’m thinking of, I doubt thathe cuts his own grass!!! Yes that Eddie

On the pricing differences... I meant to update this a couple weeks ago and forgot. Bills Place did get right back to me. They use several mainstream online markets to sell product. As anyone who's ever listed on either - the jungle site - or - the popular auction site - (I do not) can tell you... it's a PITA. All have rules. All have limits. All have different percentages of net and different shipping policies. Bills Place uses a pricing software to help with this. It, like anything, has flaws. My order of preference for online Wheelhorse parts: A#1 ... absolutely @76c12091520h After that I email billsplaceshop.com

Wanna build a black hood...

Gonna combine a pair of originals or get a set of wide blanks? I'd like to learn this someday. Definitely a bit beyond my welding skillset right now. -

I forget now... was this started before or after The Colossus??? Perhaps @ebinmaine can recall? -
Hi Don...... I still have the Eddie Murphy Tractor.......My son as Darb can attest to has a match also a 418-A ......Many folks here from Red Square have seen my herd and purchased many things from me through the years ....

So will a narrow 42". That's why I reinforced my frames.

That Is half the fun tearing them down Mike. And scratching you head and saying where does this go.
-
60" plows will do that!
-
And THAT is why that area needs to be looked at while the cash is still in the wallet. Also - do NOT trust someone elses cover-up "fix" to hide the damage. I sell reinforcing plate weldments to prevent the damage, not hide it. The best fix is to repair then weld the two together...
-
One good indicator of condition is the throttle shaft / linkage wear. A lot of play indicates it being on the governor a lot. I just figure start up front where the power is and work back That machine is desirable and will bring a little more. An hour and a half drive is pushing it for me, that is to just look, but it is a hobby. Most tractor people are pretty honest and will hold it.....but always call before you leave I have on a rare occasion someone change the plan.

kpinnc replied to kpinnc's topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
Me too sir! Definitely got me beat on those fronts and rears. That tractor is a little beast! One thing I have to do is widen a set of standard WH rear wheels. Not gonna go 14 inches wide but at least 9 or 10. At least that is the plan... -
Let’s talk TIRES
Tonytoro416 replied to Sparky-(Admin)'s topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
Tread or lugs on a new tire do no good if only 70% of them actually come into contact with the surface. When setting up my 416 I was not settling for anything less than a flat contact patch. Makes a world of difference if your tires are hunting for traction and your able to give them all that’s available -
Yes. I've done it. Also had this exact issue. On an engine with no oil pressure it would probably be fine.... and I wouldn't do that either. The stub of the shaft or as @Easton Rich said, a freeze/welch plug.

Mine are not mounted yet, no. -

Slowly but surely getting at this. Motor is being real fun since parts are hard to find. Magneto coil was toast so it seemed a Briggs one would work with some slight mods. Fit the laminations pretty well but not much room to route the spark plug lead. Front end apart for deep cleaning and paint rims. Sure is different working on three piece rims.
-
If I am not mistaken those are firestone 23° rear ag tires, those are worth a chunk of change as well.

418-A “The ‘Tail’ of a Horse for Cindy”
c-series don replied to PeacemakerJack's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
@PeacemakerJack Thank you for getting back to me so quickly! And thank you for all the good work you do abroad 👍🏻❤️ I’m happy to hear that Cindy is still using and enjoying her tractor! Don’t forget to tell her that she’s not alone in her love for these tractors, and there’s a whole group of nut jobs here on Red Square that feel the same way. We are always available to help answer any questions should she ever have a problem and you’re not around. -
Holy smokes!!! It looks like someone rammed into snow banks, etc, (I don’t even wanna know!!). The previous owner of my 00 312-9 bent the plow blade up on either end…. I just didn’t want to know and never asked!! Like @JCM quoted; D8!!! That should say enough!! Ok; im going down a rabbit trail here… i cant stand it when those kids/young adults have Wheelhorses that there running around for a ‘mud mower’!!
-
Yes, but going from the outside is hit and miss. The last two I tried- first went in easily, second stopped about half way and I wasn't willing to really hit it hard enough to go further. I just cut it off and ground it down. Best bet is to cut the pin in half and drive the tapered end in flush.

Rim width has a big effect on how wide the tire spreads, and how flat the tread and sidewalls end up. Especially true for ag cleats. -
Happy Happy CC
