Happy Indigenous People's Day
wh500special replied to ebinmaine's topic in non tractor related discussion
Wow. When I saw the title of this thread I knew it was going to go off the rails. But I sure as heck didn’t see it going off in the varied directions it did. Bravo for the unpredictability. Steve -
For the 953/1054.. One of levers between legs… one is for Transmission shift.. one is for hydraulic lift? The lever on the left side of tractor in picture is for raising deck height? And the circular tank in picture is gas tank or hydraulic fluid? Also is the carburetor located on the front of the engine same as is my 856 K181?

For the 953/1054 above? I have no idea if the tank is leaking or what kind of shape. Did ask for pictures under the hood to see how it all looks before making the 70 mile one way trip. Looking up the 954/1054 ealrier online to learn about it.. I did come across this fuel line online for $20.00 for sale. Never knew the wheelhorses used metal fuel lines. Does this one go from the gas tank to the orignal carb? How did the metal fuel lines compare to all new rubber fuel lines?

Orginal 550 gets my vote. Pretty much all there too. A real find in this area. Wonder how that ever made it to France.

1939 Ford 9N Aluminum Sheet Metal
T-Mo-(Moderator) replied to T-Mo-(Moderator)'s topic in other brands
The 8N had a lot of improvements and can be easily identified from the 9Ns and 2Ns. It's the 9Ns and 2Ns that people have a hard time identifying correctly. The 2N is often misidentified as a 9N, due to the serial numbers on both start with "9N". The 8N had a 4 speed transmission, while the 9N and 2N did not, it had factory running boards, the 9N and 2N did not, the brakes on the 8N were on the same side, the right, while the 9N and 2N had a brake pedal on both sides. The rear wheels of the 8N were dished, while the 9Ns and 2Ns weren't. The 8N had an air vent panel on the right side on the rear of the hood for the air breather, the 9N and 2N did not. There were other changes, even in the 9N production run and the 2N. Change_history_'39-'64_Ford_Tractors.pdf -
Finished my front weight set today.

Do you know that the tank is leaking? Could be your tank can stay where it is, you will want to get or make a new cork gasket for the gas tank sediment bowl and replace the gas line anyway. The gas tank is under the seat but all you need to do is remove the transaxle to get it out.

Replacement Drive Belt for 1975 WH C-100
953 nut replied to Farmer Forbes's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
There are a lot of internet sellers who sell Piece of Sc**t belts that will not work because they are over 5/8" wide or not the advertised length. Go to Tractor supply and buy an 82 in X 5/8 in Kevlar belt, put ir on and enjoy the ride. If you plan to be around here please do an introduction so we can find out more about your Wheel Horses. https://www.wheelhorseforum.com/forum/47-introductions/ -
Spent a few days gathering parts and painting. Put three coats of paint on the wood. Went out this morning and assembled it. Took it out front and did a photo op in front of the Halloween decorations. Used the matching Roper to move it. The wife threw in some deadheaded flowers to take to the compost while it was there. So it has already been put to work.

If I were offered that machine, I’d pay $2,500. But it’s probably worth $3,500.

widen rear wheels
953 nut replied to sqrlgtr's topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
The coefficient of friction, area, and normal force the keys, right? Tread, chains, and ground condition determine the coefficient. Contact patch governs area. Weight is the normal force. They all must play together! Got to agree with both of you, a good looking trailer queen needs good traction hen being loaded onto the trailer. -
Replacement Drive Belt for 1975 WH C-100
CWH replied to Farmer Forbes's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
Hello out there - Not sure if anyone follows these old threads but here’s my story. I also recently acquired a fine 1975 C100 Horse but found the drive slipping hard especially in hi range. I ordered the recommended 5/8 X 82 belt and was barely able to get it on - no way it would de-clutch period. The belt I removed was new but only 1/2 X 82 in ?? and was barely contacting sheaves. I believe there is an error in parts specs listings and these machines do indeed require the 84 in long belt. I’m going to pick one up tomorrow and fit it on , hoping for the best !! Just adding my two cents. Cheers -

Welcome to Red Square

I would say that engine is original. Can't see anyone ever replacing a Kohler with a Tecky!

And it has the period correct cutting deck... looks to be a 36" model, not a 32"?
