FREE 37" SD Two Blade Deck with Bagger
Rick3478 commented on Rick3478's classified in Wheel Horse for Sale
You mean there's actually something useful on FB? But seriously, I don't have an account. Did have several years back, but then they decided everyone had to 'tell a story'. -
Catch a problem early any way you can. One non- running parts tractor I bought had been partly disassembled by a previous own and then haphazardly bolted together with about half the bolts missing and nothing tight. I wanted to see if the engine and transaxle were worth anything. I put in a battery, cables, and a temporary gas tank, started it up and drove it around the yard until the front axle fell off. Seems the PO hadn't put the bolt that retains the pivot pin back in.

Repower L117 Lawn Ranger with Kholar k181

If you are using electric starter, you will need a motorcycle battery . That's what I used. -
The recovery would have lasted well into the 50s, and probably not been as good without the war. Pre-Depression we were a large economic power, but not dominant. Post WWII the US became the dominant world economy because we were the only industrialized nation that hadn't had the vast majority of it's production capacity leveled by the war. Basically we got rich by being the only ones who could make the stuff the other countries needed to rebuild.

Repower L117 Lawn Ranger with Kholar k181
MSBiker posted a topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
I just aquired a Kholar K181 (needs a rebuild) and I was going to repower my L117 Lawn Ranger with it. I was wondering if there were any major "gotchas" that I need to look for. One that I already see is my fuel tank bracket. I will need to reposition my fuel tank to meet up with the hole in the hood. So, new bracket. Is there one out there already built? The crank shaft is the same size as the Tecumseh and I have heard the bolt holes line up to mount the engine, so that should be good. Anything else I need to look for? -
Purchase from Fast Eddie Tesimony
Ed Kennell replied to JoeM's topic in non tractor related discussion
Thanks Joe, good to see it being used. -
Always good deals goin on at Ed's!

Good thing you did it that way. Otherwise you wouldn't have discovered it until maybe it was too late! I had a leak at the shaft that cam operates and was putting it off until I felt the seat moving around whilst mowing. Discovered this!

Or something like that. It sounded like a detective noir movie from the 40’s, like the narration in the Naked Gun movies.

2026 Big Show Buy/Sell/Trade Thread
JoeM replied to Pullstart's topic in Wheel Horse Collectors Club Show
I am thinking it has a bump in the middle that will sit in the frame. I got to look for it I think I know where it is, -
@squonk was good on his method worked well but I needed to remove right foot rest and belt guard to remove drive belt. The eccentric wouldn't move but I worked it loose with vise grips. It was rough and had burs along with the ball. I cleaned up with wire wheel mill file and sanded very smooth. I put everything together with new plastic cam and motion control worked really good and stayed in neutral. Unfortunately in the process I noticed I have cracked frame mounts....

At the Big Show Last year I purchased a 42RD Mower Deck from Fast Eddie Kennell ( @Ed Kennell ) I put it one one machine and the grand kids got some seat time mowing the flats. Right now I am taking care of my brothers estate and of course the grass. i have the deck on an old C145 Hydro and it is just dandy. Cuts super nice, not one adjustment necessary. I highly recommend going over to Ed's Trailer, Good parts at a reasonable price!

Okay, even though its aluminum it would still be the shorter style like what the 1045s and 1055s used right? -
