    Terminal Removal Kit

    ri702bill replied to sqrlgtr's topic in Tools and Equipment

    I just use a jewelers flat plabe screwdriver to release the Packard Terminals. Works OK.

    If I could add one more tidbit - use low range. You get additional engine "braking" and 2 nd gear in low is slow enough to give you to adjust if things get a tad sketchy. Even in good condition, the WH brake leaves a bit to be desired. Note that Eric has the added forward weight of the chipper to counter the tongue weight. Not a bad thing....

    Alternator bracket from above is now painted. The original engine color was a medium gray. I'm not remotely trying for a concours grade restoration, especially given the original build is "Spare parts". I prefer the lighter/brighter of the two Ford blue colors commonly seen. I also removed, derusted, cleaned and painted the alternator adjustment arm. Started assembly on the trailer hitch as well. I cleaned and sprayed Canyon Black Rust-Oleum on the back couple feet of the bottom of the truck frame. Color chosen because that's what I had.... The rest of the frame and suspension will be a straight Rust-Oleum black 2X with a hardener in the mix, brushed on.

    Sunday morning is always our family breakfast. When the weather cooperates, we BYOB (bring your own breakfast) and meet at a county park. I always bring produce to share. Today was watermelon, pears, apples, plums, tomatoes, radishes, peppers, green beans, and spring onions. Then got the 600 foot trot line untangled and ready for next weeks crabbing.

    All of the above. Done almost same thing on an 857 but was hauling a big load of rock on a trailer that was about the size of 3 yard carts put together. No problem until I cut a corner to quick and caught porch steps with tire on trailer then my foot slipped off of clutch/brake pedal and stood straight up and over on its back, luckily got out of way before Horse came down on top of me. Both receiver hitch's above are great but I decided on one over the other and will gladly tell why but don't want to do it in open forum but will in a PM if anyone wants to know. It has nothing to do with preferring one seller over the other but a design feature I prefer on one.

    You can tell by the bracing under the hood for the battery location and the rear plate where the trans mounts it's a 551. Would have come with the Tecky.

    Ut Oh! I started something! I have a couple of old Military Jeeps I play around with. A 1953 M38A1 and a 1964 USMC M38A1. Have always loved old Jeeps and tractors. My dad was CO of 1st Hospital Company in DaNang Vietnam 1968 to 1969. I've installed the decals that he had on his Jeep in Vietnam. The Jeep like my dad had in Vietnam Dad in DaNang 1968 Giving rides. Dave

    Pulling a 4000 lb boat out the barn on a level concrete floor. No problem till the right rear trailer wheel hit the end of a board. The 875 flipped and threw me under the trailer.

    Yesterday, Trina set up and fastened these "cat stairs" to the outside of the lower workshop building. These will - hopefully - be used by the cats later this fall when they begin to explore the outside some. Today, we got the whole enclosure cage moved from the barn to the inside of the lower workshop. While doing the changeover, we swapped the small cat carrier for a medium-sized one. The cat carrier is now in the middle, behind the upper sliding door. This frees up the top shelf so the cats can see out the window.

    What did you do today?

    sjoemie himself replied to Mickwhitt's topic in non tractor related discussion

    Walked around on stilts the better part of yesterday and this afternoon installing framework to mount ceilings to. Bit wobbly at first but now I've got the hang of it I raised the stilts by about 10cm/4" (total height 70cm/~27") to make installation even easier.

    Your serial number is high enough it may be a RJ-59 from recorded data. Click on the picture of the manual.

    Thanks for the warm welcome. This is looking like a fun project. Found some more parts today out in the container. Dug around and found the fuel tank today. Dave

    I have two of Brian's hitches. Definitely recommend them. He also offers top shelf customer service and a great price. This is well said. Several of us have moved larger loads over the years. It's a process to be taken very seriously. Juat yesterday we moved our camper with one of my tractors. This is a specially prepared rig built for heavy duty towing.

    Two vendors on this site sell 2" hitches. Both are excellent. Wheel Horse Parts & More https://www.wheelhorseforum.com/forum/141-wheelhorse-parts-and-more/ K&B https://www.wheelhorseforum.com/forum/177-kb-horse-parts/ I’d urge caution raising the ball too high above the axle. If you do, keep the tongue wheel down and on or very close to the ground. Wheelies are not advised when pulling a trailer. Also, the brakes on wheel horses barely work for the tractor, much less a trailer... slow and flat is the mantra.
