Yep, a Falcon with a pretty face..... Just about all 6 cylinder drivetrain & suspension parts are derived from its more utilitarian cousin.

Move tractor from Indiana to Bucks county Pa
Pullstart replied to Toolmanbill's topic in Haulin Help
Well, we have the toy hauler and the Turd on the way out after plow day, there’s a different diesel pusher in Colorado waiting for us, and I’d love to end up with an enclosed trailer to pull, but that’s all subject to a handful of variables. So we may have tractors under the belly of the second new coach, or in the 5x10 trailer, or inside their own mobile home -

Move tractor from Indiana to Bucks county Pa
SylvanLakeWH replied to Toolmanbill's topic in Haulin Help
That right there is the understatement of all time... -
March 2, 1966, in Dearborn, Michigan, the Ford Motor Company celebrates the production of its 1 millionth Mustang, a white convertible. The sporty, affordable vehicle was officially launched two years earlier, on April 17, 1964, at the World’s Fair in Flushing Meadows, New York. That same day, the new car debuted in Ford showrooms across America; almost immediately, buyers snapped up nearly 22,000 of them. More than 400,000 Mustangs were sold within that first year, exceeding sales expectations.

Move tractor from Indiana to Bucks county Pa

If this purchase gets more serious and travel is the only hold up, keep us posted. My transportation for the Big Show has not yet been established this year. I have some other items already sold and dedicated to delivery, so room and trailer real estate is not pinned down. -
A photo memory on my phone came up from the 2021 Portage show. I was eyeing a 16 horse Speedex long before I realized it!

I thought the K301, K321, and K341 have the same stoke length of 3.25"?

Well, were going to find out. I pulled the transaxle off the tractor last night and will bring it into work and go through it. Definitely had more than .003 of radial play. Want to power wash it before I disassemble it.

On a 12hp you won't notice much of a difference. 14 and 16hp have a little more thump when the gears are removed (longer throw on the crank and bigger piston) but it isn't terrible in most cases. My Bronco 14 has no balance gears and I don't think it's bad at all.

Let’s talk TIRES
kpinnc replied to Sparky-(Admin)'s topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
Got some new tires that I thought would be a good reference here. Armstrong "Big Bite" 16x8.50-8. 4 ply rated. Actual measurements are dead on 16 inches tall, 8 and 3/8 wide. First pic is one next to a 7.50 wide tire, next beside the old Firestone 6.50 tri ribs. Mounted on 8x7 wheels. -
Geez Don ... kinda like me askin if a planter was for sale ...

Thanks Erik that does make sense. Now that I think of it my boy did mention something about a b hind when he got it. Can you confirm that mine is a plow? The one in post 162 Also is it safe to say a any plow with a slot hitch is a plow or were their other brands of 4 Wheel tractors that used a slot hitch?

401 Suburban Resto
Eriks Red horse herd replied to Achto's topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
Yes it's a Wheel Horse plow but for a later walk behind tractor 1954-56. They used 8 inch plow made by Brinly . Early 1953 and earlier model's used a 7 inch plow. You can tell it's for a Walk behind tractor because of the long slot hitch tongue even though they didn't have a true slt hitch like the 4 wheel tractors. The Rj 35 on up used a shorter tongue -
i have seen them in the WH brochure's years back . I think they were available on a 200 series tractor, not 300, 400 or 500 series. @mae

1973 16 HP horse with FEL & weight box
HyperPete commented on HyperPete's classified in Wheel Horse for Sale
Nope, sorry, it's sold. It will be changed from "pending" in a couple of weeks. -
Wondering if anyone out there has one or has seen one. Just remembered getting one when I worked inside the South Bend HQ in the mid 1980’s. Don’t recall who gave it to me but pretty sure it was a gift. Will post a photo when I get my hands on it this week. Don’t recall it ever being used or even opened up for that matter.

Tell us the pros and cons of this splitter
ebinmaine replied to ebinmaine's topic in Tools and Equipment
We've had the same thought. I'm curious to know if or how Boss compensates for that. -
1 1/8 axle with a new bearing will have .002 to .003 play

Tell us the pros and cons of this splitter
Wayne0 replied to ebinmaine's topic in Tools and Equipment
The only thing I have an issue with is, the piston is under the wedge, not behind it. Looks like a weak point to me. I guess you couldn't have a 2 way that way. Might work out fine. The proof is in the pudding. -
I put it away in December, ran fine, no smoke, didn't use oil. In February it wouldn't start, it had fuel, air, and spark, might be valve issue. I took to a small engine shop and they said it was .003 out of round/taper, but it ran good before. They disassembled the engine and told me it was going to cost way more than I wanted to spend so its for sale to anyone wanting to reassemble the engine or repower it. I has a rear 3 point, rear PTO, manual front PTO clutch, seat, both lift cylinders, hood, grille with working lights, rear tires and wheels are like new. If no ones interested I'll part it out on eBay

But I can win in a gas pissing contest, so there’s that! I think I found my new transfer pump.
-
That's a little too much for a carbureted engine. Especially a smaller size. 1 to 4 PSI is the standard.
-
I've decide to sell the D-160 and let someone either repower it or put the engine back together. I'll list it locally and on the classifieds here. The shop said it was .003 out of round/taper, but it did not smoke or use oil. I've bought another D series for 2000.00, seemed the better deal
