What have you done "WITH" your Wheel Horse
702854boy replied to rjg854's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
Could we pin this thread like what was done to the What Have You Done To Your Wheelhorse Today thread? -
WonderWhy was the joke name back in the day. Monkey Wards carried Simplicity for awhile. I actually had one of these many years ago. Someone has repowered this one, and it looks like the drive pulleys have been changed for more speed. Mine was a pretty good wheelier with the stock drive ratio, so the added front weights are probably needed. There's not much to hold onto except the handle, and leaning on that makes it turn, so you have to get the feel of it pretty quick.

Update.. I messaged the seller yesterday and he got back to me today.. this is what he said: attached screenshot.. sounds as if he didn’t take the time to set up up permantly to gravity fed run drive ect? Or this tractor has fuel tank under the seat so CANT gravity feed permanently.. I do have an aviation electric fuel pump I bought for my 856.. took it off and used a piece of rubber to elevate the fuel tank to gravity feed it.. I could use the aviation fuel pump on this 953/1054 if I get it?

Oh ok. Thank you for the helpful info

That is sweet - my brother still has Dad's 9N, need to get him to check for aluminum but I'm pretty sure it's not aluminum. I owned an 8N for quite a few years, not a whole lot of difference between the 2 models at first glance. Wish I still had that tractor. I see these all over the place, begging for rescue, but I don't have the time or the money.

@Ed Kennell had my knees done 20 years ago , 6 months apart , almost Chomical today , 3 days in hospital , then a week in a nursing home to learn how to walk , then home for rehab . learned the most using a roller stool , for pull / push engagement . MAKO has totally changed that , had a hip replaced , then home with visiting therapy , also on my lower spine fusion , my wifes thumb bone removal , was very long time consuming , months , helped when ever needed . also had a stroke in my eye , years back , watching the inside of your eye on a 4 ft screen , blood flow , muscle movement , was incredible , my fathers appendectomy , 1920,s looked like it was done with a shovel ! biggest issue today , ? FEAR to do anything , pete

Nice! How old are the tires? What mileage does not take away, age does... I see built-in storage for the ramps - a huge plus as long as the track spacing works. Properly loaded, that should tow nice.

Picked up this 18' car trailer. Loved the powder coat red color (and no Uncle Jim they did not have lime green! at least in stock) The son dabbles in concrete work and we needed something just a little bit bigger looking into buying equipment. The logic was now we can haul it home if we find it! Plus, it can haul a few show machines on nice days. I will say after looking around and comparing what local dealers have, there was a huge difference in the quality. The bargain units looked like jr high welders put them together, and frames were skimped on a bit. Auction trailers were just priced right under new, I can't figure that one out. After you pay the price, buyer premium, transfer and tax it worked out to be little savings and no warranty. I ended up paying 15% more but got way better quality.

And SO much harder, too, IMHO. 👍 -
Nice! Looks to be a Flathead 4 cylinder... Polished aluminum similar to what some folks do to 701, 702 one piece gas tanks.... Some folks, not me.

Like the town of Quahog, RI - the setting for "Family Guy". While traveling for my last employer, I was asked several times If there really was a Town of Quahog in Rhode Island & if I lived near it!

I was told the Prison Building was in Lexington Ohio, next door to the sister Division of my last Employer. It was actually a State Hospital, I recall.... Correction - A retired State Reformatory, in Mansfield County, Ohio - down the road a piece... https://www.mrps.org/inside-shawshank/

I don’t believe so, you can check the manuals section for the IPL and check part numbers. What are you looking for, I have a 42” SD that I would be willing to let go for cheap too (in way better shape) -
Have you ever considered making a ski recliner, could sell well for skiers with a broken leg.
