Actually and I can't believe I'm say this but Kev has got a valid point. Once you get it set up and dialed in not a bad way to go. Sometimes need the anti sway pin to get it to track right but we have made those right on the plow field. Done plowing you can put a draw bar right back in for tub pulling.

I may be off my rocker, but the one on top that slides right into a Wheel Horse hitch works great for me! I have both kinds, and prefer that one generally.

30 has a bigger throat, a.k. more air, more power.

I had a thought several weeks ago that maaayyybe I could use the two kits shown to create the tractor more like an S2500. The 2500 and 2600 were the heavy haulers of the series. The fleet beast. The 4300 was more of an owner operator seller. Nicer options. More chrome. The Paystar had the setback front axle and HD frame of the S2500. After taking some measurements today it appears that I'll be able to use the frame and running gear of the Paystar and the nose and fifth wheel of the 4300 to combine into a 2500. Probably. Biggest obvious challenge will be cutting the 4300's hood to shorten it quite a bit.

As stated not much difference in performance. Having a sleeve hitch in your arsenal will open your tractor up to other Brinly implements. Which are easier to find.

Very nice , USED set of #92-6840 blade skids. Some wear but lots of life left.

The basic rules for hockey and soccer are very similar. Hockey is a lot faster pass though. I like to go to the Green Bay Gamblers games when I can. They are in the Eastern Conference of the United States Hockey League. They used to be the fighting-est team around. Always used to joke that we went to a hockey fight and a game broke out. Things have really cleaned up in the last 6 to8 years though. Not too many fist fights happen any more. The games are still great though.

The Wheel Horse clevis hitch allows some offset as @sqrlgtrsaid, and the brinly plow itself has additional adjustability as well. That being said, the slot hitch and matching plow is far simpler and has less fasteners to loosen and annoy the operator. There is also no setup to do and no rabbit hole to go down with adjustability options. What you see is what you get. I have both setups, and I can't say one performs better than the other. Yes, the brinly can adjust how much bite it takes but the tractor is going to be the limiting factor. As a matter of fact- the only difference that I've always found is in the tractor you use to pull it with. Good luck with your decision. You'll be happy with either one.

The BBT has been ridiculous busy as usual. She started doing a second position for the hospital. Accounts Payable. This afternoon we moved the main backyard gate from "open out" to "open in". This makes it easier for us to move snow and also keeps the dog from the possibilities of pushing through the gate. Trina's also been busy for several days replacing the floor in her momma's kitchen. They didn't like the way the other (plastic fiber fake wood) things were laying down. She and her momma put down a 1 x 10 pine floor. Leftovers from the barn build. Polyurethane will be applied soon.

New question, what is the difference between a Carter #26 and #30? This 14hp has a #30, but I've only ever seen #26. I might just be plain dumb, but I've never seen one.

Wheelhorse Parts and More makes the best sleeve hitch it's made with 1/2" thick metal. The original Wheel Horse sleeve hitch was made 3/8" thick metal.

Some progress pics of the tanker. The wet sanding went well for stage one. After this pic I used the flat sheet od sandpaper to "adjust" the line-up of the front and middle sections and glued them together. Here I'm doing a simple mockup for the rear suspension position and the frame rails I'll be adding on. Not sure exactly where the whole thing is gonna set just yet.

If you do, stress penetration over building it up, the starter body sits nearly flush with the length of the mounts so if it gets built up you will have to grind it down.

Looking for a set of WH wheel weights that's not so far away. There is a set posted in classifieds but they are 9hrs one way to them. Already checked with seller and he will not be attending the big show. If anyone has any closer or able to bring to the Big Show in PA. let me know.

And it would have been but for the heroic defense of goalie Hellebuyck. He should never have to pay for a beer.

I see them every evening Lynn. Also saw a herd of 16 at the old Red Lion Country Club last week.

Chipping away at my Stallion
Red Stallion replied to Red Stallion's topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
I've decided to run my engine out until it dies properly. The noise was definitely from the valve lashings, as I put it all back together last night, and the noise has gone away. Onan P220g engines are basically non-existant down here in Australia. Parts are impossible to find, or I'm paying more for freight from the US than I am for the part. That plus the engine configuration apparently does not like the hot weather down here. However, I don't want to let the beast die out forever. So I'm looking into engine swaps. There are few reasonably priced v twin engines, but for now I'm putting it into the "future project" bucket as I've sold the land I had bought it for, so I don't have much of a use for a mini-tractor at the moment. But it's been a fun little project taking it from and old gunked up machine that was tricky to start, and now it fires every time after a couple of cranks of the starter. Thank you to everyone for your wealth of knowledge, especially for @lynnmor. I can tell your very passionate about these machines. -
1989 C125 starting problems- Maine Mechanic?
rmaynard replied to Maine Red Horse's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
That sound to me like it is flooded. A stuck float valve will cause that. Where did you get the carburetor that you used to replaced the first one? -
Thanks Red, this is great info and good pics. My Father in laws looks very similar to yours. Inner tab is cracked right through opposite the cylinder and has a smaller one like yours at about 4 o clock if that makes sense. The motors out so I'll pull the flywheel and what not and see if I can find someone to weld it then report back. Cheers, Patrick

When you crank it over, does it sound normal or does it sound like it's spinning a lot faster? -
