Tell me about these Wheelhorse hubcaps
FLtractor replied to FLtractor's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
Oh ok interesting.. so not as durable as the chromes for the earlier 856 and 60s era. Thank you for info -
Its pretty straight but has some surface rust and faded paint. I am wanting to do a resto on it one of these days though. Maybe one of the vendors on here has a decent used one.

1054 Hydraulic Cylinder Not Functioning
sqrlgtr replied to 1054 Project's topic in Implements and Attachments
I just knew my pump was going bad once but I had left the pulley loose and it would spin on shaft, but sometimes it wouldn't spin on shaft and would work fine. I couldn't figure out why it would work great sometimes, sometimes wouldn't work and sometimes it would be slow, I finally noticed the pulley walking in and out on shaft and had enough since to tighten it up. Mine also never made any weird noises. Hopefully yours will be sumin simple too. I did change fluid in mine thinking it might help so at least sumin good did come out of it . -

They are plastic hubcaps. Not sure what they were made for, but were regularly on the 260 series (?) vertical engine machines. But they will fit 8 and 12 inch wheels.

I didn't hear any airplane propeller noises on the 'fly by'.

@ebinmaine. Would you be interested in rebuilding my carburetor for my 1990 Wheel Horse 310-8. It is a Walbro carburetor. I am not sure how to get in touch with you so I will try this. I had to run the tractor with the choke half way all the time.

Decided that painting these wheel weights was worth the effort. Now I just need to pull the front wheels and get rid of that bright white that somebody painted them with. -
It's been a rough couple weeks around here, especially for the dog...

Between you and Trina I'm sure she'll recover. Dogs are amazingly resiliant. -
Evening, Came across these marketplace different state.. were they a special edition or just standard factory painted chrome hubcaps? Seller asking $40.00 for all.

Here is the manual showing the right pedal. If you enlarge my update picture, you can see what I did. I made the pedal, real simple to make. It basically is just free floating but enough slack to keep it forward of the foot peg. I put a spacer on the inside and flat steel with a 3/4” hole and a locking collar on the outside to keep it in place.

While searching something else I came across this old thread from 2011. This is both a sad and interesting thread from the past. Gary Pond, Cecil's son, was part of it. Sure wish he stayed hanging around, but I get it. Many of the members that posted on it were a big part of this forum back in the day. It's very nostalgic to see some of those names and remember those early days of RS. This thread may have been hosted on the old Forumer site before Karl made this place permanent. I can't remember what year that was but thank you Karl ( @nylyon) for saving it if it was. The Forumer site owned ALL of the the content before Karl made ours. That's whole story just on it's own and interesting RS history. Plenty of those old threads back in the day had tons of interesting subjects and very knowledgeable people the providing that info so it's sad to see they either passed or simply moved on. If you happen come across any interesting threads from the past or know of one please post them.

1987 310-8 key switch to plug match problem
gwest_ca-(File Mod) replied to Armadillo👍's topic in Wheel Horse Electrical
Calls for a 103991 switch so change the wires in the connector to match the Wheel Horse diagram. I will guess the accessory and rectifier wires are reversed so the rectifier wire is grounded when the switch is turned off. I do not know why they want it grounded other than to kill any stray voltage from getting to the magneto. Do you know how to remove and install the Packard terminals from a plastic connector? The Kohler diagrams show an optional diode in the Ground-to-Kill or magneto wire. Wheel Horse did not use that option so suspect reversing the 2 wires was their solution. -

Thank you ,but I don't think this 420 will ever be as nice as @cleat 's resto's. I do put a lot of effort to bring the '' ROUGH 420'S '' back to a spot in WH history but, I just can't stand looking at the abused 420 and 520's that I have seen in pictures on this GREAT Red Square forum and try to do my part to ease the pain that has been inflicted on me, Seriously . Thanks

1054 Hydraulic Cylinder Not Functioning
953 nut replied to 1054 Project's topic in Implements and Attachments
If the cylinder isn't moving but the pump is developing pressure I would expect there would be some sound difference when the up-down lever is moved. -
