    New Horse Hauler

    Looks like it would be about right, but I find Vevor products to be variable in quality. It might be a good idea to be able to move the charger between tow vehicles and trailers as needed, just use quality connectors and provide weather protection. I don't know about running that charger without a battery, perhaps you can get the manual for it. You still need wiring heavy enough to carry the amps involved at the estimated distance and voltage, the charger won't be able to compensate for wires that are just too small. Another option is to run an inverter for 120VAC and use a small battery charger. The 120 volts can use much smaller wire to cover greater distances and then the charger can be close to the battery, of course you need to protect the higher voltage system well. I wouldn't be very comfortable with 120 volts across the hitch because of potential damage or error.

    Latest addition to the fleet

    That's excellent!

    520-HC 9 pin

    The 9 pin was an Onan thing. It offers no advantages unless you plan on doing frequent engine swaps. I would suggest you are much better off wireing the engine connections from scratch. The Onan is a battery ignition engine and the Vanguard is a magneto ignition so you will probably want to insert a "KILL RELAY" in the rewire.

    Very nice, now you need to work on your "WALL ART" to keep up with @c-series don.

    What have you done "WITH" your Wheel Horse

    Thank you for posting this photo! I found a small e-clip on the garage floor and have spent the last week trying to figure out where it belonged. I've done so many different projects over the past few weeks, I forgot about having my motion control apart on my C-120.

    Priorities

    Would I pay $6,500 for a 420LSE? No. But remember, it was $8,000 sticker price at the dealer back in the day. How much would that be today… $12,000? It’s not unreasonable, when you think of it that way.

    @c-series don Thank you, that means a lot! Yes I’m happy with the sickle bar, much better shape than my other and all original. During the winter I have to fill in drilled holes I have on my hood, I mounted the lights on brackets I made mounted on the frame and now the holes are an eye sore.

    Front Mount Deck Hanger (42” SD)

    I got smacked in the face by something quite solid yesterday, mowing along the beans. It made me wonder how well a RD deck with maybe some rubber flap guard might work rather than the SD. I tend to get the right side blade caught up, while all the chaff is flying through the chute. It’s what controls my speed, or reversing a needed. Also, the importance of safety glasses, even when just mowing.

    Front Mount Deck Hanger (42” SD)

    Good info Kev. Bret Esse has one and some decks I could probably get for short money and put it on busty or alice for a brush hog. Use it across the road for trails and the junior plow field.

    @lynnmor @wh500special DC to DC charger is something I hadn’t heard of before. Could it be installed in line on the tow vehicle? Would it work to supply power to a trailer that doesn’t have a battery to charge? Maybe that wouldn’t make sense, if I only have one battery powered trailer and have potentially two tow vehicles, but just in theory… Are you thinking something like this? https://a.co/d/0fJQshGK

    @Thegearhead0324 That is one of my favorite tractors on Red Square! I always like seeing pictures of it. I’m glad you got a sickle bar back in it. The whole setup is sweet!

    Front Mount Deck Hanger (42” SD)

    Hopefully the video above helps explain things in short, but I believe I pulled apart a standard front mule drive to use those pulleys.

    Eaton 11 Hydro Pump

    Removed from a 417A in good working order. I was cutting my grass with this machine until 2 years ago.

    1-1/8 Hubs

    Good condition see pics
  20. You can get more tension on the std Wheel a Matics by replacing the 2 slot head screws with longer allen head screws with a couple of washers. You can it tighter with an allen wrench as opposed to a slot head screw . I did this a year ago and it's still tight.

    C-145 dropping rpms on its own

    This is going to sound stupid, but I had a similar thing on my C-160. The RPMs would change when the deck was raised up to the stops. The hood stand was cracked on the left side where it meets the frame. The rock shaft was lifting the hood stand which in turn would pull on the throttle cable

    Carhold 42s fuel pump

    I am with Mike on this. I have one on the 856 and 1057 both work well. The old saying is you get what you pay for.
