I wasn't sure if he added that part afterwards to warn others not to do it before he did it.

What's the story here? -
I'll get a photo tomorrow sometime and post it in here if someone doesn't beat me to it.

50721 8 36in deck # 103119 spindles
ineedanother replied to John c's topic in Implements and Attachments
I might have those spindles and pulleys here recovered from a deck since gone. I'll look tomorrow. -
In low range I am able to shift through all gears with the belt engaged and there is n grinding, if I try to go from low to high with belt engaged there is grinding, other way around, no grinding, high range all gears work
-
What would be the cause of low range not low ranging and just neutral? I do know we will probably have to take the tranny back off the tractor and tear it apart again.

Thanks for the story. We would love to hear more about anything in the factory I’m in central Texas. Best I can tell there were some WH dealer in East Texas and far NE Texas. Also seems like there were some Louisiana dealers. Maybe the used tractors to sein crawfish from the bayous. If you have any info about dealers this far South I would enjoy hearing it

Yep. I was having the same thought while I was working the leaves alone today. And when I was taking the dock out of the lake, alone a month ago. Then again, the bright side is that I can still do work like that.

It’s not just into wood I drill holes.

I spent a year at UCLA. ...Ugliest Corner of Lower Alabama. Ft. Rucker during my time. All those holes remind me of the holes that armadillos would make EVERYWHERE. I never had to aerate my lawn! -
You guys talked me into it - I already have all my tractors converted to all LED taillights - put the tall chute on the 416 so I took the time to look what needs done - stator is putting out 16-17 volts AC to the lights - going to be easier changing it over to 12 DC than I thought - want to add a rear magnet mount LED spot with a quick disconnect too while I’m at it .

704 3 speed to 8 Speed Swap
DBlackston replied to DBlackston's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
Does anyone know what brake bands will fit this? I am trying to locate one to buy. A picture I can compare to would be great! -
This one is a 416 so definitely a simpler harness with only an hour meter and a volt gauge. I must admit that the GT1600 and 312 harnesses are simpler yet. The 520's are a bit more complex but I do like looking at all the gauges.

Spent a few days at the farm this past week. We had the water ways restored (removed junk trees and brush) that had grown up since dad died nearly thirty years ago. We had a couple of perfectly calm days and decided to tackle burning some of the twenty brush piles. We burned nine of them. We had the disk behind the tractor in the event we needed to break open some ground if the fires spread--which they didn't. My brother had already chisel plowed and disk in anticipation of burning. About 80% of the piles was consumed. We will deal with the left over root balls later. Also finished cleaning the fence rows. Each year, the farmable land was getting smaller because the encroaching brush. Now we can mow within a couple of the fence. That's a time consuming and rough job-for a couple of 70 plus year old brothers.

I say ammo boxes on the fenders and tripod on the hood for my B.A.R. and I'm ready for the unruly neighbors. Or zombie apocalypse, whichever comes first (sometimes they are one and the same) 🤣 Hey 1974 D-200 experts! Is there a tow valve on this model? Rolls easily in reverse. It will NOT roll forward even in what seems like neutral (shifter). There is a hole above brake pedal. With a label (painted over of course). Flashlight told me there is a small screw head inside the hole. What does it do?

Tractor Lunging Unexpectedly!! Scary!! Help please!
mae replied to heysavoy's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
My transmission on a 314H was jerking me badly when I went into reverse or forward. Come to find out it was a bolt underneath the unit that had come loose. After tightening it is as good as new. I may not be understanding your issue exactly but thought I’d toss that out. -
Batch of parts for the diesel. They look awful but should clean up well. Good grille casting with a good IH emblem and headlights, seat and brackets, fender pan with taillights, and a dash for parts.

Tractor Lunging Unexpectedly!! Scary!! Help please!
Lee1977 replied to heysavoy's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
My 520-H did that in reverse when I got it. As Bill said above worn cam and cam plate. The cam had a groove worn in it and would hang up, using enough force to move it put it way too far in the other direction. Mine would go wide open in reverse, the only way to stop it was hit the brake. new cam and cam plate, I also added new 1/4" stainless steel heims j -
Nice work but too much electrical stuff for a garden tractor... 20 WHs no 520s

So nice to have this club/site. Still using my 1996 314-H. In the late 80’s I worked in the Wheelhorse offices/factory in South Bend. Didn’t work for them but for the finance company Borg Warner Acceptance Co. our office was in their facility and we financed / Floorplanned all there dealers. I had all dealers in the NE PA up through Maine. Remember walking the assembly line etc. John Munn was running the company at that time. Knew most everyone in the offices. Solid people! PA had some big dealers. Only after moving to TN in 1989 I purchased my tractor as I knew Toro was going to eliminate the old quality stuff. The last National Lawn and Garden show I attended in Louisville Toro had 4 or 5 of the “real” Wheelhorse units there but they were stuffed in the corner. You could tell they didn’t want them front and center. So, I went to the local TN dealer and ordered one before it was too late. Recall the dealer asking me why I wanted a 314-H just to cut grass. My answer was because I never wanted to buy another tractor. This to date is true! I’m in Ohio and gave the yard one last cut today and put the old girl away until spring. Have only posted once when I joined a number of years ago but wanted to share my story and love for my tractor. She’s a great machine! Thanks for allowing such a long message. Mike

Ha, the wife is inside all warm and cozy and think'n your tractor is sexy because she doesn't need to go out there and help! LOL

Not to worry. Axles and differentials aren't shimmed like crank shafts. A bit of end play is to be expected.

A very nice touch as the bronze and wood go together like peanut butter and jelly.
