it is a barn-find Wheel Horse B-115 tractor. It’s an older garden tractor from the early 1980s, and although it has clearly been sitting for quite some time, it still has a lot of potential.

then i got alot of lurking around to do, thanks for the tips

The info stamped on the original steering wheel is The 500r Superior Performance Products Made in Canada 03886CT. The OD is 15 1/2''. @ri702bill

Just acquired a barn find B-115 from my Dad, Engine started first time although the silencer is straight through. Only thing missing is a mower deck, still trying to get it back in shape, its an old baby which my dad loved so well and thats one major reason i joined the forum, to get more parts and ideas to get this baby running again.

Complete and functional. Includes PTO belt. Needs minor repairs done to deck by the front middle and left front anti-scalp rollers. $200 OBO or willing to trade for or any size deck for 5XI series tractor.

That steering wheel appears to be an off the shelf Grant Industries Classic Series model. Probably faster & easier just to replace it with new. Years back, the overmolded Kelch lower hub cracked & broke on my C81 - while in use. The steering wheel came up & out in my Son's hands... I remedied that for good by machining up a 2-pc adapter and installing one of Grant's wheels.

I did not know those tractors had split front rims

At one time the tractor had a deuce on it.

1054 Hydraulic Pump Return Spring
WHX?? replied to 1054 Project's topic in Implements and Attachments
I do believe it is supposed to be like that. If I remember right it's the stop for the lever motion. It hits the leg of the spring Guessing if a guy really lays on the lever it can break the spring. possibly shearing it off at the hole. -

Not mentioned in any WH brochure I’ve seen. Give that girl a job in marketing! -

Ran it around for about an hour today. So far no drips or odd noises. Feeling pretty good about it! -
Will Crank, But Will Not Start... 417A with a 17 HP Kohler Engine

The spark is blue/white, I don't know about the timing. Thank you. -
Some pics of the redo project. Pics of the chrome split front rims had help from @ebinmaine Upper dash console has not had replacement decal as of yet. On the list.
-
I don’t think there is a way to do that? If the tag is still legible you can figure out the build date. It’s not like a 420-LSE where the production number is printed on the ID tag.

420-LSE Leather Seat & Steering Wheel Redo
c-series don replied to JCM's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
I’d say it looks great!! 👍🏻 The whole tractor looks great Jim 👍🏻👍🏻 -
Both tractors could use a face lift on the leather seats and steering wheels from prior abuse. I do have a few leads on small local shops that I need to connect with too see if they would be interested in a Winter project. Any how I have been storing a very nice clean 1988 - 89 high back 520 original seat that is in mint condition and decided to install it on my recent second 420. Sure is comfortable and doesn't look too bad in my opinion.

1054 Hydraulic Pump Return Spring

New spring on order. Question...is that roll pin supposed to be extended like it is in the picture? Could that have broken the spring? -

Echo CS490 chainsaw. Air filter upgrade kit.

This is the most important step IMO. I do this on all of mine but definitely necessary if you're increasing the air intake or doing any porting. -
What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?
adsm08 replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
I didn't do any actual work on any of the tractors today, but the 1076 got to stretch it's legs today. I finally got time this morning to teach my daughter the controls, and then let her just run it around the yard to her heart's content. She came back to me for more fuel twice, and got yelled at for towing the neighbor girl on a skateboard once. -
It holds the belt guard for the two stage snowblower.

Is there a way to find out what number my tractor is in the production run?
