Best solar trickle charger with shutoff for price?
FLtractor posted a topic in Wheel Horse Electrical
Evening, Came across this online.. is this the best Solar trickle charger to keep my 856 battery charged while hooked up inside tractor. 10 watts enough? Florida sun. Auto shut off good so no battery damage. Other one you’d recommend? https://www.harborfreight.com/10-watt-solar-trickle-charger-70830.html?hftm_sc=189&hftm_source=google&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=21901739240&campaignid=21901739240&utm_content=171677809902&adsetid=171677809902&product=70830&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21901739240&gbraid=0AAAAADAHb4dCpgwLTBeXP0Ntb6gYRkpHi&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI6vf9-92jlQMVUF3_AR0diCS6EAQYASACEgII3vD_BwE -

K & B section of the vendors classifieds, about the 10th item down on the first page -
Had a beagle basset mix, long ears with one blue one brown eye when I was a kid. I know the stubbornness of which you speak.

Beagles. Very stubborn ones.

What kind of dogs? Hounds? Mountain dogs?

I thought we were doing 11:30 Friday and 10:30 Saturday.
-
There is space available for camping at the fair grounds, for a fee. There are also hotels semi-locally. I usually jokingly offer my back yard for camping, as I am pretty close to the fair grounds, but with my dogs that's not really a great idea.
-
That’s excellent info!!! Thank you for taking the time to give so much detail. Where do people usually stay that come from out of state? Can you camp on the fair?grounds.. as they allow at some of those airplane shows?next to airplane or tractor this case

@sqrlgtr Probably got the pictures already but I wasn't going through all those pages to find out so here's what I just took - Today

For the reasons stated. It has been done by pullers and mud runners--special situations.
-
10:30 on Friday, and (I think) the same on Saturday @953 nut, can you confirm?

Heavy truck frames, yes. They can NOT be welded. This frame is not heat treated so welding is fine. -

I’m no expert, but don’t truck frames get specific treatment for hardness and ductility? I’d want to be sure an “extender” really knows the ins and outs. -
856 unidrive transmission.. how durable

Rare? Don’t worry. Regular? Bad -
"No Name" model rear axel seal
barnsworth replied to barnsworth's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
I'll take a look over it and see if it's something I'm capable of doing. I am kind of handy when it comes to stuff, but this is a step I've never tried. Thank you all for the help! It is more than appreciated! -
I would have guessed a smaller number--maybe 600-700--at least so far this year. Still a lotta tractors. Here’s a shot of the trucks & trailers queued up in eight or nine rows before the 9:00am opening this morning Anyone can come into the show, join up, and offer WH stuff for sale. Individuals with a few items to sell tend not attract “official” attention. The expectation, however, is that larger vendors are paying the “seller fee.” Pure spectator participants are welcome at no charge, but most forum members will strongly encourage supporting the organization (Wheelhorse Collectors Club) the puts on the show by joining and paying the membership fee. The layout is typical county/state fair. Some sellers set up in covered spaces where drive-throughs are discouraged, except for picking up purchases, but many others set up in the “infield” areas that are in sight of the graveled roadways. The axiom of “let the buyer beware” is as valid here as anywhere else. It is up to the buyer to know what they are buying, judge the value, negotiate, and agree. Getting knowledgeable help is a great idea--I often seek input from members. Comments like “gone through” and “completely redone” mean very different things to different folks! Hours meters can (and have been) replaced! There are tractors here that are pristine--probably better than when they left the factory. If they are for sale, it will be for $000’s. There are running 10 & 12 hp 8-speeds from the 70’s through the 2010’s galore in the $400-1,000 range. Loads of 42 & 48” decks--some needing work but many ready to mount and mow--but I’ve seen only one 60” deck. Dozer blades, carts, and soil plows, yes. Graders, tillers, and cultivators, a couple. Parts are interesting. Lot and lots of parts you might need for a restoration, but it can be a challenge to find a specific part. And it seems to fluctuate yearly. Sometime there are lots of something and the next year there are none. It took me two years to find a usable one-model-year-only hood for my 854, for example, this year I’ve seen three so far without trying!

Looking at the end of the rear frame it's basically a C channel. It measures just under 6" tall. Width is maybe 2 inches? I want to extend the length approximately 13", 14". I also want to make the steel wider top and bottom for better support of the trailer hitch. I'm thinking something like this 4 x 6 box steel might work. I can tack it in but I'd have a professional welder do the final attachments. -

Well we hit a snag loading. I had a different trailer last year, that is not available to me this year. Mine is not wide enough for two tractors side by side. So one is in the bed of my dad's truck, which was some doing in and of itself. We may need help putting it back in there. -
Mostly flat.. barely any slope at all to yard. Nothing to even call a hill except 15 miles west.

ebinmaine replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
That's why I bought... instead of building. I do still need to modify one sometime though. Cinnamon Horse has a very high front end so the hitch points down. -
That’s great to know
