Went back and edited my post thanks for pointing that out wouldn't want to lead someone a stray.

Bearing was seized and this is what it looks like. The Spindle is about 3/4 inch thick. Not sure how to find the bearing for it.

I'll be shopping over at Paul's trailer.

Recycling deck blades vs regular 42 inch deck blades
CasaytheMann replied to Lane Ranger's topic in Implements and Attachments
I pulled the blades off my unit, which is set up for recycling, to sharpen them. The cutting edge is basically as long as yours appear to be. I noticed when looking them up online that they're referred to as mulcher blades now. -
The pulley is roughly 3.25 inches in diameter. I'll check the classifieds

Sounds good Brad, I live in Richmond Va, so it's going from Richmond to the Richmond ha. I'll send you a PM to get the shipping set up.

What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

Put a tube in front tire. Tired of pumping it up even though it sits 5 feet from the compressor. -

1998 Tradewinds, Diesel Pusher Motohome
ebinmaine replied to Pullstart's topic in non tractor related discussion
What's that blow at/on/towards? Our heavy-duty trucks at work all need a deflection tip to point (mostly) down so the exhaust doesn't melt stuff. -
Trina's mom has a red canoe similar to the above. Kevlar canoes remind me of a funny occasion. Many moons ago in a land far far away... I have cousins from around Athol & Orange MA that have been into canoeing for decades, some for 70 plus years. Back in the early 1960s they were among the first racers of the now decades old annual River Rat Canoe Race from downtown Athol to downtown Orange. They were known as The Rat Pack Paddlers. For obvious reasons they had several pure bred racing canoes from back in the day... There was a kevlar one that was 17 feet long and 17 inches at the widest point. It absolutely sliced the water. It also flipped if ya sneezed near it. Well they invited me to go up to the Saco River around North Conway NH and Fryeburg, Maine when I was maybe 15. Interesting I now live near that and cross it almost daily, though some downstream. Anyway, the trip was to stay a campground in Brownfield Maine and float/paddle down the river for two days. My boy cousin Dave of my own age REALLY wanted to use the racing canoe instead of the "other" one. That was a behemoth of PINK fiberglass that was over 18 feet long and nearly 40 inches across. Stable. You had to TRY to flip it. Well, my uncle figured (correctly) that me having never been in a canoe was a bad idea for a racer. My uncle and my girl cousin Deb about 3 years younger than me took the Kevlar water slicing rig. They went NO more than 200 feet downstream and all their belongings were underwater. Trash bags helped... but not foolproof. Me and Dave were in the potential Ugly canoe contest winner.. warm and dry.

There's a "project" halfway built! Gas powered sharpening stone?

Got some fence lines mowed before the rain starts. Checked out tomorrows auction. An interesting boat. And a Commando 800 -
Looks like quite a power loss thru that menagerie of pulleys and belts. The Wheel a Matics used the left pedal as an emergency stop (brake) by returning the trans to neutral. Just like the later Sunnies and Eatons

Disassembly continues on the C160…
kpinnc replied to RoubaixRider's topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
No, but I caught alot of rides on them. Same for the Huey, and a few hops in a Chinook. I was enlisted for 4 years in aviation maintenance before becoming a Warrant Officer and going to flight school. I flew TH-67s, and OH-58A/C/T models. I got a short maintainence flight in the AH-64A front seat as well. My time got cut short (life happens) so I didn't get to fly as much as I wanted to. But I wouldn't trade anything for my couple years as an aviator. -
1998 Tradewinds, Diesel Pusher Motohome
Pullstart replied to Pullstart's topic in non tractor related discussion
Before departing Colorado, we discussed heat, especially when towing. They had a 90 degree exhaust bend installed to push exhaust heat away from their towed car. Through driving in and out of various approaches, the exhaust was crushed quite a bit. I have remedied that. If the 4” pipe with no muffler deems to be tolerable on the road, I’ll make the hanger a bit more pleasant to my eye. My eye, because it’s likely I’ll be the only one that sees it again. -

Shed construction is finished, shy of door latches and door sheet metal. Yay!

Project complete. So much fun. I figured out that it needed an 84 inch belt… It works perfectly and along with a little bit of alignment with the belt cover, it all turned out nice. Thanks for all of the help along the way guys… Appreciate it very much best, Jason. -

Did you fly the hawk? I’m normally in the Bell 205 which is the civilian designation for the Huey… I love that machine and will be flying it most of this year with occasional flights with the hawk. During the winter I fly the.AStar and it is also a fun machine -

Finally got some time to start the engine swap on the C175. Next up is a good pressure wash before starting the install. Need to find a 5 1/2” pulley. I broke a chunk out trying to get it off. -
Partstree shipped the throttle to me very quickly and the installation was easy. The throttle works smoothly & was an exact fit. Expensive, yes, but I needed it, and it was necessary. I wish it had came with the knob on the end of the handle though. So far, the 312-8 is working fine. Thank you for all the help I recieved here on the forum. Tom

NOT an application for a USED nylok nut. They form (displace??) a thread into the nylon portion the frist time used - that is how they get their grip. A re-used one has much less retention. Totally agree that bad things (think expensive) happen when the nut works loose.....
