    418 - A Starter

    Bought a rebuilt starter from DB Electrical Thanks for the recommendation @Achto a year ago and it finally decided to quit, of course no where near the shop..So it was time to release the belt and SLOWLY PUSH THE ROUGHLY 800 LB Tractor with SDdeck towards the shop. Can't complain it's been noisy since I bought it around 6 or 7 years ago. The starter is an easy replacement but fortunately I had removed all the bolts and put never seize on them that hold the tins on. Putting the tins back on is a slight pain in the rear. Super quiet now.

    32 inch side discharge mower deck question ??

    That is a 37" ( I think ) deck from a vertical shaft riding mower, only decks that used that style of spindle assy.

    Nice score on that 312-8. Mine is my go to mowing machine, so I definitely agree with you,

    What did you do today?

    Absolutely.We bought three grab bars and will install at least two. The wall I was dealing with is an outside wall so i left it intact as possible and used hardwood for maximum hold. Drilling an undersize hole so the threads grab without splitting. The other walls will get solid blocking and a block for a third grab bar in case there is need for a caretaker within the shower. this house was bought in case we would have to take care of a parent, but its only two miles from here and the need for an easier property for us is a possibility. It is a step in shower that fits a five foot opening. Its nice and rigid and solid Vickerel where the cplor goes all the way through

    Inside work is all done except putting the shelves and books/knickknacks back in place.

    Another way is to take the part numbers off the corner of the 3 decals and see when and where they were used. Parts Tree will list the ipl's that have that part number.

    If you have a rough estimate of the year try this. Go into the Manuals and select "Mower decks and reel" As soon as the page opens select "Sort by" for a drop down menu and select "Files" Now all 663 files are placed in chronological order. Work you way up to the 32in SD decks and they are in order of production.

    I retired at 62.5 and used COBRA for 1.5 years. Still had to buy health insurance for 1 year before I was eligible for Medicare. Mrs.K is a few months younger than me. I asked my insurance guy what to do when I took Medicare and Mrs.K was not eligible? His answer...wrap her in bubble wrap. BTW, that one year that I had to buy health insurance cost 4X what I paid for my first house.

    from what i can find the tractor is a 73 with a 5091 gearbox. i found where you did a 5091 and it had a 8 pinion. what is better the 8 pinion or the 10 pinion and why?

    Big 312-8 fan here. Have had mine for 37 years. I can mow my yard 3 times compared to once with my Kohler Twins on the MPG. Good luck with it.

  16. I'm a glutton for punishment. Born and brought up learning to do everything the hard way. @Brockport Bill No kidding. The pictures should show you. Kleen Strip Aircraft paint remover, 1 1/2'' and 3'' wire wheels on an 18 volt Milwaukee cordless, lots of different grades of sandpaper etc etc and a right shoulder that's just about had it. Not perfect but doing the best I can with what I have. Thank you for the nice comment I'm enjoying bringing this 420 back to action, feels good.

    Healthcare is a major factor as part of an overall plan. If you don’t already have a trusted fiduciary financial advisor, now is a great time to start shopping around. I wasn’t as prepared as I could have been. My spouse worked for three years after I retired (hers was more vocation than job) and we survived!

    Betcha y’all didn’t know 211

    I agree that only a small fraction of big pickup owners use anything close to their truck's capability even occasionally. Self-image and the “I can if I want to” thought process are powerfully exploited by marketers.

    What did you do today?

    Planning ahead for solid mounting points for grab bars is an often-neglected step. I hope you are placiing a vertical one on the near wall for stepping in and out as well as one on the “far” wall for stability while getting up or down in the tub.

    Congratulations both of you. I'm contemplating retiring sometime in the near future. I'm 55yrs old....I want out! My daughter has to finish college. Tuition & shes still on my healthcare plan. Thats my biggest concern/expense when retiring young. Also my girlfriend is 40yrs old & idk if shes ready for me to be home all the time?????🙄

    Wheel Weights

    Got um on and mounted back on tractor today. Used 7” carriage bolts and some lock nuts. Started to cut bolts off but they dont stick out past tires so. Opie had to photo bomb again. Only downside so far is warden can track me easier.

    312-8

    Excellent! We'll need pictures. We love pictures. The RH-10 is the correct plug and you can cross reference easily to other manufacturers. You'll have questions, everyone does but I have a 312-8 and it could very well be my favorite. Great machine! Here is a recent thread similar to what you'll be asking.
