Brake liner removal
gwest_ca-(File Mod) replied to gt14rider's topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
That lining looks good. I would hit it with brake cleaner which was the original intended use of the product. -
Gravely Sulky Handlebar recommends gonna pull with 856
gwest_ca-(File Mod) replied to FLtractor's topic in Pullers
The steering sulky front hitch mounts on the left and right sides of the tractor. This way the sulky and tractor stay straight and do not pivot but allow for up and down movement. The steering shaft turns the small pulley on the bottom that controls the crossed cable to the rear axle spindles. When you turn to the right the sulky steers to the left turning the 2-wheel tractor to the right with it. -

Ma Yeah. Make the tongue extra long and fit a trailer bed on it to carry all the goodies bought at the shows. It would be like one of those long rear steering city fire trucks. Something different - Today

Oh that.. forgot about it. blurry picture.. looks the steering column is bolted thru the frame. debating if better to use existing sulky bolt holes or having it welded on frame. Did those steering wheels actually steer from that wheel? -
Disassembly continues on the C160…
RoubaixRider replied to RoubaixRider's topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
Ok, well… decided to drop the engine in for fit, and everything‘s looking good. Going to start snugging things up a little and then continuing with dressing the engine with all of the freshly painted and prepped accessories. -

Got the 48 all hooked up had to buy a new belt. 42 takes 102" 48 takes 103" Hard to believe it makes a difference...it does. To wet to start mowing the paths. I like the front mount as it knocks some of the Tics down before they hit my leg Already had one.. Going to need lots of DEET this year. Did a short test may have to get a bigger horse the 48 put a load on the 14hp. -
Wanted To Buy. Briggs and Stratton PN 210534 Intake Tube. This was used on Briggs 8B horizontal shaft engines and several other Briggs models from the 50's and early 60's. I'd like to buy 2 if possible but need one to complete an engine restoration on a David Bradley.

Are you aware of what the Gravely steering sulky looked like? -
So many vehicles have them now, even trucks! I was initially skeptical of the one on the ’22 that I bought as a used CPO but I will say that winter sunlight has been nice and my service guy does the drains every 6,000 miles with the oil change, to boot!

My father had hair like that. At least it wasn’t orange.

I've had two vehicles with sun roofs. Both problems from the start. One I permanently sealed with silicone and disconnected the switch. No problem after that. The other was a mechanical recall issue. Fixed by dealer with lifetime warranty. I never use it. Lesson learned. I won’t get another vehicle with one... holes in roofs are simply not advisable...

Aortic Valve Replacement / TAVR Procedure? Anybody?

Thanks, bud. Much appreciated. I'm 73 -
There are so many examples of shortcuts or “not made to be serviced” that we could spend all day discussing them. There are also many examples of “this is a pretty cool feature, but it requires more maintenance.” Car roof windows are one of these. The roof window drains are an at-least-once-a-year maintenance item and typically done by dealers (although, I’ve seen some very helpful YouTube videos explaining how to do it on several car models). Waiting until they are clogged and water is coming into the car reinforces this. The drains can become clogged in ways that are very difficult to clear--and air pressure is NOT an ideal solution since they are often plumbed with “Ys” connecting different branches and air pressure can pop the connections apart letting water drain into extremely awkward locations (like under headliners). Dealers typically use a blunt thin plastic “wire” to rod out the tubes. Parking under trees that drop stuff and opening the roof when there is debris on top are invitations to clogging. Dried dirt is the most common culprit.

No hole in the end cap. There are holes in the internal valve sleeves especially in piston to piston units

@sqrlgtr or anyone else need a good cheap tiller? Saw this on CL near Winston-Salem NC

Besides my 1257, this is my ‘79 F-100, original paint and metal, did some buffing when I got it. I dropped in a roller cam 302 last year, and kept the original “3 on the tree,” some other things I did to it like carpet and interior stuff. I bought it a few years ago in Arkansas, I’m in upstate NY so it was a haul for my 95 Chevy half ton to do.

What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?
wallfish replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
I'm going to guess more people would have glass or easy access to it vs a 12x12 piece of thick steel plate. Wet sanding clears the dust out of fine grit paper to prevent clogging -

Goldnboy replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
I sanded this head for a K321 I am Rebuilding..not sure why so many people posts metioned glass and water.. I used a 12x12 new steel plate I had. -
And of course, Babe was born and raised in Baltimore, played his first pro ball with the Orioles, then was sold to Boston. It was said that in the prime of his career, he would smoke cigars in the dugout, and drink bourbon between innings. He never worked out as players do today, and would pitch entire games and into extra innings, while still being a prolific hitter.

Was it a straight or curved shaft for support? bolted to existing bolts or welded?
