When I restoed a 1067 PO had converted it to solenoid. I was on the fence about going back to original since I am a purist but what the heck it was considered a custom anyway so just cleaned up with new wiring. Good decision since it's a go to tractor. Can then use the very common $10 four term switch and they last forever.

Nice! But those cornices are a natural hiding spot for flying, stinging insects. I used to work with a guy whose family were house painters that specialized in 3 story Victorian tenement houses. He was the runt of the 5 brothers and always got the job of painting the eaves at the peak. This often required lashing a wood extension ladder to a 40 foot wood lower ladder. Not my idea of fun...

One of these suitable Bumper for 856?
953 nut replied to FLtractor's topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
None of them are suitable for a wheel horse, they are too wide and as bill already mentioned they would get in the way of opening the hood unless you mounted them a couple feet out front. You need to get off Facebook and get out there in the shop workin' on whatcha already got. -
I've got quite a few for rolled roasts if you have the patience to bone it. Was always dad's favorite. He always got ticked off with my 7mm-08neck shots. Yep or x bow. Problem with this time of year is getting it cooled down without a walk in. I plan on taking a pick up load to a donation place once it cools down out. They pay the butcher 135 to cut & wrap all you gotta do is gut it and get it to them. Problem is here the nearest place is hrs away. They recently upped it from 125 to try and get more processers to participate.

I may be all wet on this one, but... I believe this was the first program to be aired in color.... But not many folks owned a color TV set then.

1960 Suburban 400 with a butchered hood!

Less expensive, more reliable and gets the high amperage wires out from behind the gas tank. This drawing uses the 103991 ignition switch which can be found at any auto parts store.
-
This is true. Since the bulk of my herd is early 60s SG tractors I keep replacement switches "in stock".

I have been seeing some pretty interesting neck recipes. If you got em in a barrel like Uncle Jim, maybe a head shot or two would be in order? What season is plow day again? Bow? Maybe I need to come on Wednesday

ri702bill started following Key switch
-
It is always better to use a solenoid in the ignition circuit - it removes the heavy amperage load from the key switch and gives it to the better suited device. High amperage thru the key switch generates arcing & excess heat - both shorten its lifespan.

That’s a monster! What’s the price of admission? Those oddballs are so cool!

2026 Deer and Fish Tales
SylvanLakeWH replied to Ed Kennell's topic in non tractor related discussion
Neck just above shoulder. Really no meat loss. .350 at 75 yards and 25 yards. I have had good luck with this method. Very little tracking. -

C'mon over Sylvia I got 12 doe tags. Ducks in a barrel too.

To me the 3 piece trans (a plus to me), footrest, clutch pedal, steering wheel looks to be in good shape, lift arm and quadrant, seat, fenders and seat pan, wheels and tires (if usable), front axle, clutch pulley belt guard (if still There) plus running engine (looks to be a HF predetor). I wouldnt care to have maybe 300/350 in If it was in close proximity to me, but I'm a sucker for the little Suburbans. Here is a pic of my 550 Suburban with a HF Predetor engine swap and it worked out great, but I would have preferred to have the original Lauson engine back on it and still might convert it back one of these days. I still have original motor that came on mine, but PO busted the block trying to get exhaust pipe out.
-
Random thoughts with @Pullstart…. Sylvia did you make high shoulder shots? .350 or .450? How much meat loss from the bullet? Would you have the room to double lung shoot the deer and let them run a bit and drop? I love an easy track job. I also love meat. I’m just curious as to your methods, or reasoning. I’ve done both.

Happy birthday Paul and many more!

Here you go Bar post 25 ... that round hood you need ...
-
So not being familiar with those model decks.. and can’t see the front- it’s physically open on the front to allow grass debris into the blades?? So the opposite of my rear discharge 856 deck? Also this 3 piece transmission you say not exactly a plus- is a LOT less durable and reliable simple compared to 856 unidrive transmission?
-
Yeah that might take the purest right out of me ...
