-
This is one of the those items that Glenn would’ve had made a not charged you a fortune . Maybe something @wheelhorseman could have made and offer on his site . Jim do you know anybody that could 3D print some ?

My beef exactly Jeff and likely everyone else here. I suppose they gotta pay someone to put them in a envelope. I'd bought two dozen and made some friends. Just burns me Who in their right mind would pay that!?!?! Thanks for letting me rant.

My 520-H is a '89 which originally didn't come with reduction gearing. A few years back, I did find a system for sale and installed it on that. It is very nice with front mounted attachments and 60" mower deck. Routine engine mx isn't as bad on a 418-A with the cab. WH went with no oil filter on the M18. Anything heavy on the rear cylinder would be definitely be a PITA. I did get pretty good at taking the battery in and out with the cab installed during this whole process. I did pick up my 12 volt power from the accessory line prior to the fuse, since I installed separate fuses for everything I installed, and just getting those wires routed was very tight. The junction box in the pic below that I mounted forward of the fuses came with the kit. Luckily, no 9 pin on the 418-A. Much simpler electrical system. -
I believe you've had enough....

Yea ten years ago at the big show the vender who sold the rudder skids for the foot plates on the 3 , 4 500 series tractors sold them and I wish I’d bought a small bag of them . I believe they went out of business but not for sure . Found these but still ridiculous for something that cost a couple cents to make .https://www.katom.com/064-00160245.html?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=[ROI] Shopping - All Products Target&utm_id=187797395&utm_content=14749848875&utm_term=&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=187797395 says qualifies for free shipping . These places / people that charge high shipping rates really chap my arsh when they could just mail them in an envelope with a couple stamps .

Kinda what I did on the 1045 still fought it all the way.

Have to do some more research on that Squonkie ... does't say what size these are. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/mmu-33239#overview

I machined that bent rod down with a poor man's lathe (Carbide burr and emery cloth.) Then " machined " the egg shaped holes in the hood for the door bushings to work

When I redid my bathroom, I put in regular size tub that was also a whirlpool. The little lady always like a tub, and she may have used it a dozen times in the last 3 years. Now that we're getting older, I wish I just put in a walk-in shower in the same space. Food for thought.
-
They do have the exact one. For 5 each and 12 shipping!!! Now I am a self admitted cheapskate but lets get real. I may have been born on a Saturday but it wasn't last Saturday.

Done that too Big Unit but doesnt work real good with this style of hood hinge with the bent rod welded to the front of the frame. Would have to grind off the rod and make a new longer one. The later style yes works real nice. That was a huge improvement on big block square hoods.
-
The other thing that might suggest it's a one is the slot hitch? I don't know of any other brands that used one. Maybe Brinly made that just for WH??? On a 401 ... note the tires... run what ya brung ...
-
I've never seen an actual bearing no. for them . Just 3/4" ID x 1 3/8" OD x 12" wide. The older 88 and 89 520's use the same bearing. Don't know about " Heavy Duty Spindles".

You know you are a true horse head when you have things "in stock" ...

First thing I thought of Denny when I saw the joy stick! Problem is we usally did't have enough snow to justify it. This year being somewhat of a exception untill the back end of winter when we did't get any snow. Had it out for those light dustings just for the seat time. Not fammiliar with a 418 electrical sytem Andy but yes be careful of a the accesories. I did draw measurements on the high powered lighting I put on but blew the nine pin out on every 520 I modded. Now that everyday is Saturday never blow at night anymore. Don't have to worry about blowing early AM or when I got home from work in the dark. You would like the 520 front end running gear ...makes a world of difference when using a suicide knob & turning radius. I see @Easton Rich has some for sale now. Pullstart may have a extra setup too. Might want to consider a foot motion kit too. Bad thing is it's a pain to do maintenance on a tractor with a cab on ... 520s anyway. Can't even check check the oil decent with a deuce on. -

i did and to be honest, the heat output probably won’t make much of a difference in the cab. I put my digital multimeter on the battery and turned everything on one by one and it did draw down to just under 12 volts when I turned the heater on with all the lights on. The heater was free with the package as part of a promotion they were running at the time. I do plan upgrading to a digital volt/amp gauge on the tractor. Also will be looking for a reduction steering kit to put on it. I believe everything from a 520-H system should fit on a 418-A with little modification. I’m planning on the cab being a permanent install and didn’t want to put it on the 520-H that I have because that reactor was my Dad’s and has sentimental value and enjoy using it for mowing and other things. -
WH D 250 steering box to power steering.

Thank you, I will look into that. I have another question. Do you know what the thread type is,For the arc front end loader for A D250, I blew a hydraulic hose and I need to find out what thread they used in the hydraulics. -
If it is the 7/8 OD x 3/4 ID bearing, that would be nice.
-
What is the actual bearing number fir the front wheel bearings? Looking for both the standard wheel bearing and the oversized heavy duty one found on some 520's. I don't need the bearings for the swept forward 520 front end. Thanks.

Did you go with the one from Original Tractor Cab? I see that theirs had a 25amp draw. Just wondering if you have enough charging out put from the engine to keep up with it?
