So I need to look for a par 36 bulb, what about the connector, is there a specific one that I need?
-
PAR 36 is a common bulb, and LEDs are easier to find than old incandescent. They are brighter, use less power, and last forever. LED is the way to go. First pic below is an old incandescent. The rest are LED for comparison.

Anyone know where does this wire plugs into??

If you post the model number, someone on here will most likely link you to the wiring diagram. -

Wanna build a black hood...

Some dummy ordered the wrong spacers... Luckily, said dummy has a lathe. Opened the center just enough to fit WH hubs. Quick and easy fix. Definitely brings the track back even. Much better! -
Made some non slip pads tonight for the foot boards on the 418. Got the rubber from work and custom made with some gorilla spray adhesive. Not bad for first time with a utility knife. Lol!!

I agree @kpinnc, that seat pan just does things right. Kinda like five spoke or rally wheels. ageless. -

I've had old dirty oil all over the base and frame around the engine area. I traced the cause to the dipstick housing grommet. I received a new one today. I pulled the old one out and discovered the bottom of the grommet was threaded. Ive never seen anything like it. This picture is the new one. It went in with some effort, as did the dipstick housing. I think I've seen the last of that oil leak. -
Looks great!

Not sure what the end game is for this but it's too good to let go. It's got some issues but is largely original. I'm going to start with a gearbox for axle issues and penetrol treatment to preserve the patina...

What happens is the grease inside them gets hard and the contacts don't move as they should. You can take the switch apart if you are careful and clean it up then regrease with a little dielectric grease on the moving parts. It is a little difficult to get it properly snapped back together but with some patience it can be done. I have never had one yet that could not be saved that way. I will try and take some pictures of the next one I do if there is one. -
16 Auto with welded hub
ineedanother replied to ineedanother's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
Interestingly, I put a hub on it so it's a roller and was able to push it (somewhat) for a couple feet at a time as it very lightly went "thub thub thub thub thub" from the hydro. Likely each piston crossing the wash plate and leaking enough to let me push farther. I'll swap this one out and clean up the surfaces when I get the time and motivation -
Brought some good reading on vacation...

sqrlgtr replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
yeah, it doesn't feel quite right when it toggles. Looks like I should be able to find a replacement pretty easy, looks like it is just a common size rocker but IDK fer sure. @cafoose may have one on a parts tractor I could "borrow"... -
It color is light blue. The second pic it's next to the orange wire

16 Auto with welded hub
ineedanother replied to ineedanother's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
Oh yeah, the hub is trash, and pretty much was before the "repair". -
I suppose it depends on the condition of the axle. Once mine spun, I think I lost enough tolerance that there was no getting the tight enough to hold. Not being able to use a key didn't help either. My keyways were wallered out terribly. The repair hubs worked great until I put them under heavy load.

ineedanother replied to ineedanother's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
Yeah, that's great that he does that. I sent one to him but he felt like the pitting on the rod was too much so I just replaced it. Not many places will touch that for what he charges so huge kudos to him for doing that for us. -
Prolly your best bet if your not afraid to tear into it. What kinda shape is the hub in. Guessing trashed??

Hey Eric, do you happen to know by spec or otherwise how to identify that? I'm definitely curious.
