2 pointsGod created the dog and said: 'Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. For this, I will give you a life span of twenty years.' The dog said: 'That's a long time to be barking. How about only ten years and I'll give you back the other ten?' So God agreed. Then God created the monkey and said: 'Entertain people, do tricks, and make them laugh. For this, I'll give you a twenty-year life span.' The monkey said: 'Monkey tricks for twenty years? That's a pretty long time to perform. How about I give you back ten like the Dog did?' And God agreed. Then God created the cow and said: 'You must go into the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give milk to support the farmer's family. For this, I will give you a life span of sixty years.' The cow said: 'That's kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty years.. How about twenty and I'll give back the other forty?' And God agreed again. Thereafter God created humans and said: 'Eat, sleep, play, marry and enjoy your life. For this, I'll give you twenty years.' But the human said: 'Only twenty years? Could you possibly give me my twenty, the forty the cow gave back, the ten the monkey gave back, and the ten the dog gave back; that makes eighty, okay?' 'Okay,' said God, 'You asked for it.' So that is why for our first twenty years we eat, sleep, play and enjoy ourselves. For the next forty years we slave in the sun to support our family. For the next ten years we do monkey tricks to entertain the grandchildren, and for the last ten years we sit on the front porch and bark at everyone. Life has now been explained to you. No need to thank me. I'm doing it as a public service.

1 pointI picked this up a couple years ago. With the need to remove 20 or so dying balsams at the get away house its time to get to work. I used an old mule drive on the front tatchamatic. I was going to fab something to go to the mid hitch. Upon entering my shed i saw a 48" deck suspension sitting in the corner. It was just the right length!!! Picked up a scag idler pulley a little time with a grinder on some angle iron and the welder and BAM!!! Broke out the wire wheel for a quality "sanding" followed by Rustoleum IH Red. I was testing my newly acquired 1975 C 160. Aside from the oil leaks it ran fine.Probably ran about 3/4 throttle. The chipper takes 3.5" branches with ease. And most of this stuff is so dead the shredder hopper can handle 1.5" This was about a 30' balsam I limbed and shredded in 20 - 30 minutes. Beats either renting a real chipper or hauling all these trees to the dump. I have no doubt that this chipper will work just fine on my 312 as well. I couldn't be happier with this setup!!!!

1 pointVery nice $30 purchase! I bought mine for a little more but it was only used 3 times. Even though they painted them green this was sold as a Wheel Horse attachment by MacKissic as a Mighty Mac and they still make them on wheels with a motor attached. No longer as a tractor attachment. This was purchased new in 1973 for a Raider 12 wheel horse bought by someone in Indianapolis, Indiana for chopping up his garden plant waste and corn stalks. Here is a picture of th front piece that attaches in the front of the wheel horse to the two front holes in the tractor frame and then to the Mighty Mac hammermill chipper.

1 pointMark the nests and leave them alone for the remainder of the day. After dark, once they have all returned to the nest dump a big pot of boiling water down each hole. Get it soupy and mix up with a shovel if you feel like it. Using the boiling water is safer in your garden than using poisons that may last in your soil for several days to months and be absorbed by the produce you are growing to eat. This works great for fire ants and yellow jackets as well.

1 pointThere are some old threads on this problem, it's fairly common. These guys have mentioned all the basics, but you can try a search on "mule drive pulley" if you need some more ideas. I can't find the thread right now, but there's another method I used recently on one of my mule drives, with some major inspiration from Terry (TT). If I remember corectly, it basically involved removing the mule drive, nut and outer spacer, supporting the pulleys on blocks of wood, applying liberal amounts of PB Blaster to the pulley shaft, letting it sit overnight and coming back the next morning to gently tap the shaft with a rubber mallet. I couldn't believe how easily the pulleys slid off, with no heat/puller/grinder/chisel/cursing required. If I can find the thread I'm thinking about, I'll come back and post a link here.

1 pointWelcome to Red Square! Where are you in NJ? No prob. The most important part is lining up with the pto. These are all the photos I have at the moment. Its sitting in NY state so it'll be a bit before I'm back there. Once I had the mule drive on I propped some wood under it to get it level. And then set the mid hitch attachment in place. I had to cut one side of the 1/4" round bar shorter to accomodate the shipper. Good luck Kevin

1 pointThere is a work around for the ignition system on the solid state tecumsehs. Eather a ford, GM, or chrysler ignitn system will work. I went the chrysler route!! http://gardentractor...om/ignition.htm there is alot of reading here. He explains everyting in detail and even tells you where to get your parts. I made a trip to my local junkyard and found all the parts i needed under 1 hood for like 20 bucks.

1 pointIn the interest in putting this information out there for someone in the future that is trying to identify pieces, I'll post a picture to show the difference between the mounting frame of a 1966 vintage RT-366 and the later "more normal" tiller mounting frame: The short one is from the RT-366 the longer one is the common later model one, courtesy of my favorite go-to parts guy Kelly.
