    The brass? insert that is inside the plastic knob, has a splined outside diameter. The brass or whatever its made out off insert inside bore is smooth and pinned on to the mule drive adj. bolt. I should have been more clear in my description. Still don't know how clear this description is and hope I haven't confused you . Bottom line is Ive never seen one that has threads in knob.

    From what I’ve seen on mine, keeping with Wheel Horses philosophy of simplicity. There’s not much to them, the knob is pinned on(at least with mine) to what looks like a fine thread bolt with the head cut off. Simple direct stuff. Easy to fix. If someone had one to take measurements from and the knowledge and access to a machine shop they wouldn’t be super difficult to reproduce.

    I need to pull this one off and see what kind of handy work went into making it.
  10. MainelyWheelhorse
    I assumed they were threaded. There isn’t any splines inside the old brass insert on mine. I thought of tapping the end of the shaft 3/8-16, locktighting, and pinning it if need be.

    All the mule drive adjusting knobs I have are splined and pinned on.

    How to attach snowblower?

    Ed Kennell replied to SamHit's topic in Implements and Attachments

    And those mods are not minor. There should be plenty of correct blowers for sale in your area for around a $100. Maybe another trade deal.

    i use a 42 inch recycling deck with my 314-8. The baffle on a resr discharge holds ghe grass clips in a little longer for recuts! But it also holds wet grass which i mowed over this week (dewy) that clings to the decks. I had it off today to clean!

    Rough day

    kpinnc replied to kpinnc's topic in non tractor related discussion

    Well just an update: today marks two weeks since the fire. I have trouble recognizing that because we've been so busy that it feels like lost time or no longer than 2-3 days since it happened. We have learned alot about camper life. There was definitely a learning curve but we are getting there. One giant hurdle was waste disposal, but my wife bought me a new "toy" to traverse the distance to the septic that has been affectionately named Cuzzin Eddie. It holds the same volume as the black water tank on the camper and is touch free. While not my favorite thing to tow around, my Wheel Horse doesn't complain. Of other notes: Temporary power to the barn (fence chargers, battery chargers, and barn lights) is nearly complete once inspected and the the power company will connect to it and at least we don't have to stay here all the time. This will allow us to focus on all the other things that come next. Contractor is coming tomorrow to help us decide on a plan for the house itself. He actually built my home in 2007, so no one should know his work better than himself. The insurance company total lossed my Tacoma. I still have no idea why. But I'm keeping it anyway and will just fix it and have a salvaged title. It is unaffected mechanically, and just had some plastic parts with heat (no flames touched it) damage so fixing it should be relatively easy. So anyway, we are making progress daily and there is a faint flicker of light visible in the tunnel. I thank each and every one of you who have kept us in your prayers and a few who are close by that have helped us out in person. It won't ever be forgotten by me or my family!

    wallfish replied to SamHit's topic in Implements and Attachments

    Wrong blower for your tractor. That blower is designed for a vertical shaft tractor and will not work on a HZ shaft tractor without modifications.

    The 42" decks are readily available and some are in very good condition. There are a few on FB Marketplace and at times really good deals.

    Thinking I can supply an engine for it. 12 or a 14. Bring the roller minus the boat anchor. BUT, and I've told this story before, Charlie Pitcher showed us a beat up rusted cylinder Clinton engine at the show. Inside the cylinder wall was rusted and it was a locked up engine. He replaced the rings with a set of chrome rings and put it all back together right there at the show. Then got it fired up! Huge smoke show and there wasn't a 'skeeter within 200 yards from us. He left it running just sitting there on the ground and the next day he sold a non smoking, running Clinton B1290 for an RJ or Suburban. Let's try it with that engine if'n you're up for it! I'm now hell bent on blowing up an engine as a display! We tried to get my father to let us blow up his engine we put on the 603 but he declined. We should've kept that Briggs engine we gave to @Docwheelhorse and blew that up. 10 - 15 guys were hanging around that have never seen an engine lock up so thinking it would be a learning experience. I have a 16 hp Teccy engine that runs but has ticking, knocking and head gasket issues so that's certainly a good candidate for blow up engine. Then give away the good parts like carb and coil to someone that needs them. Or maybe that engine you have turns out to be the one! Late Thursday after the crowd is gone and right in the middle of the field.

    I got a snowblower in a trade, when I bought a c175. But I just can’t understand how it would be able to work with any machine, let alone the c175. I’ll include some photos. The belt seems to be centered, while all the wheel horses have the pro for the belt coming down from the side of the machine.

    I ought to do something like this for my 78 C-141 Auto. The brakes are a bit lacking.

    ebinmaine replied to whtractors24's topic in Transmissions and transaxles

    I'd like to make a suggestion on the spring position. Flip it over so the tang ends point down. I've lost some in various machines over the years because they can lose tension and gravity takes over.

    We spent a fair amount of time in bear country with the kids growing up... Mrs Sylvan is not a fan of bears... so of course, whenever we went on a hike I would always review the 2 simple rules with the kids: 1. Open tuna fish can is in Mom's pack correct? 2. Don't need to outrun the bear, just Mom. Kids thought it was hilarious... Mom was never amused...

    If I was there to see your face and watch the reaction when the "Experiencing Tech difficulties" screen came on, I would've been laughing so hard a Hearst would've been needed to take me home! I knew you were waiting for that moment to bust on me!

    I just went through this with a '73 auto. I'm going to true it up with a better anchor point now that I'm sure it works well but here is what I fashioned to avoid digging in the hood tower...

    The one on Ebay is deck only. I don't think the front carrier is included.

    We have a growing bear population here in Missouri and even have a limited hunting of them. A couple of years ago my brother-in-law and I were camping and hiking a trail in a state park when we came across a sign warning sign about bears. We decided that if the state had only one sign, it was wise of them to post in in the middle of the length of the trail. I looked down and he had worn a clunky pair of work boots and I had running shoes. If needed, I felt pretty safe that I could keep ahead of Larry.

    Lee1977 replied to bradleydavidgood's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors

    The year model doesn't make much difference as all the 414-8 are basely the same. I have a 312-8 that I don't know the year model. I also don't have a Wheel Horse that hasn't been modifited in some way by me.

    When you talk to Lincoln at A to Z about the deck ask what he as for seats, may be able to fix you up.
