8 pointsDear Lord, your servant Jay Paxton will undergo surgery tomorrow. Please guide the surgeon's hands to be steady and effective to do the task at hand, and not create any further damage We pray against any infection or complications. Calm the heart of his family. Lord please allow this temporary trial to bring an end to Jay’s battel with cancer. When he is coming out of surgery, let the side effects be minimal. Work a miracle in this whole situation and bless it from beginning to end. Thank you Lord, we praise you as we know we are in good hands- the very hands of God. In Jesus name, we thank you for each day. Amen.

6 pointsShift knob restore. Still Waiting on more odds and ends for my C121 resto. In the meantime I noticed the shift knobs were wrecked no matter how much I scrubbed wire brush chemicals etc they still wouldn’t get clean. I’m too cheap to buy new. Used med grit sandpaper finished with 2500 . Now they are almost like new just need decals . I have too much time on my hands I guess or maybe just need help Shiny new balls !!

6 pointsThanks everyone for the kind and much appreciated birthday wishes. My wonderful wife, Krista had these cookies made for my birthday. These are made by her cousin who has a specialty cookie business. I ate one of the big ones (Although I hated to destroy one) and they taste as good as they look.

6 pointsI expected it to clean them up a little, but was pleasantly surprised myself. I forgot to mention that the microfiber “sock” that fits over the pad makes a big difference, plus they are machine washable. Long story short, this is the same thing I used on a scratched up tractor hood. It works very well!

3 pointsDon’t store your babies next to your buckets! Also, my turkey is all dirty. A good soak in the bath tub will help.

3 pointsI’ve been absent again but I’m still picking away. My repowered 12 automatic (18hp Briggs and Stratton vanguard v twin) was running like garbage so I cleaned the carb and fixed a ground kill wire leading to the front coil that I saw the mice had chewed. Took it out to do a load of firewood and it sounded off and had no power. Come to find out I had no spark on the back cylinder. I replaced both wires and then had no spark whatsoever. Confused I dug into the repair manual and surfed the internet. Turns out there are diodes in the coil ground kill wires. Reached out to a friend who has a repair shop and he had a junk engine that had the wire on it. Plugged it in and it’s back up and running on both cylinders. I decided it’s going to be my firewood/ back up plow tractor for the winter. Just need to install a plow on it if one of @WheelHorse_Kid‘s tractors or his brothers 856 fail on us but I don’t see that happening. Also got my fiancé’s little guy and my dog who I’m trying to get more comfortable in the garage out there with me.

3 pointsPut the shifter in what feels like neutral. Pull the shifter out and look in the hole. The top of the forks should form a square. If the square looks like 2 offset pieces use a large screw driver or pry bar and move the pieces so the form a square. You may have to rock the tractor back and forth a little to help them move. Report back how it works out.

2 pointsDidn't think they were going to all come down before the snow started to fly this year.The 420 was pulled into the mix this year. It took 10 outings with 3 tractors and 2 broken rakes to get them under control. The 418-A with 42'' SD did the mulching and blowing them into the woods as well. Glad it's over..The raking does keep the upper body strength in check.

2 pointsAir horn. 100% needs to become for an air horn.

2 pointsI had my left hip replaced 3 weeks ago this last Monday and today I went to walmart shopping for food with no walker, cane or anything. I feel better than I have in years!!! Still taking a few pain meds but way down from two weeks ago. Hang in there, I have had both knees replaced and this was a cake walk!!! You'll be greasing something before you know it!!!! Randy

2 pointsThe Cyclone Rake has to be in the top 3 of my yard accessories!! But - theres that "but" - you do need a good sized yard to benefit from it. I'm like clueless, down here in NW La the leaf problem is much less, its the pine straw! I have some 125 pines in my 2+ acres of upkeep and until I got the largest Cyclone it was misery trying to get all that straw, and a good many leaves, up was a nightmare. Like wet leaves, the Cyclone doesnt like wet straw, but dry it will get 90-95% of the straw. Straw of course is needle like and the updraft/vacuum has to be strong. One year I decided to keep track of how many loads I hauled and ended with 22 loads of that finely mulched stuffs huge bag filled!! As mentioned, its a bit pricy, but WOW! what a tool, and, it is an extremely well made piece of machinery, with an extremely nice staff when you have the occasional problem. I'm now on my 22nd year with mine and have had to replace the blower fan (picked up a too biga stick) and the canvas bag finally wore out 3 yrs ago. Down here the leaves dont completely get off till the 1st or 2nd week of January and I go ahead and wait til then to start clean up.

2 points1. Contact K&B Horse Parts from our vendor section. 2. CALL Lincoln at A to Z Tractor in PA. Also from our vendor section. As our tractors age you'll find that part number resources are no longer as helpful on a regular basis. Another disadvantage to trying to find a particular part number is that it may be designed for a specific year or a specific color when there is a broad availability of other things that could potentially work.

2 points@Greentored That definitely is a keeper. You do not find those every day. Enjoy it and enjoy the ride.

2 pointsI would pull that wheel and make sure you don’t have a groove worn into the underside of the spindle. It can be welded up and ground back round.

2 pointsWe got the 6 point all processed up, and in the freezer. It’s all seasoned and ready to pull out for a cookout!

2 pointsThanks may man, going to have to get me a couple. Enjoy your Thanksgiving, I'm smoking a Turkey and a Big Boston Butt and frying a Turkey. I told my kids and the rest of the group last year I'm getting to old for this its time for you young folk to take over. Obviously they didn't listen, told the wife yesterday we are going to New Orleans next year, they can work it out, she just looked at me with that 47 years married look and said yea right.

1 point17 Wheel Horse tractors Pickup in Alton, Illinois (St. Louis, MO area). CONDITION: Except where noted, these have mostly been sitting for some time and probably won’t start without some tinkering by you when you get them home. In other words, they “ran when parked.” All are in fair shape. Expect bumps and bruises. They are all dirty from sitting in the barn. They’ve not been left outside. I would rather sell in groups. I’ve made some example groupings with discounted pricing in the table below. If you have your own preferred grouping, let me know. PRICING: Pricing is our starting point and I will consider offers. If you’re serious, so am I. PAYMENT: Cash when you come is fine as long as you promise to follow through in a reasonable timeframe. If you need me to hold something for a prolonged period of time I might ask you to pay for it up front. TRADES: I’m probably not interested in trades, but if you have something you want to discuss just let me know. OTHER STUFF: I also have a ton of parts, mower decks, snow blades, mid mount blades, turning plows, signs, front farm PTO unit, a shredder…This stuff will only be available to those who are committed to buying things from this list and who are here to pick up. Thanks, Steve 523Dxi (SOLD) 520Lxi (SOLD) 518xi (SOLD) 18-Automatic (SOLD) 211-4 $100 252H $175 246H $150 Ranger 700 (SOLD) 500 Special (SOLD) Charger 12 (SOLD) 1075 $175 Commando V8 $150 B-60 $300 C-160-A (SOLD) C-161T-8 $200 GT-2500 $200 GT-1142 $350

1 pointTakes a few minutes, but I found a way to bring headlights back when they get all crazed up. These are 11 year old OEM, and this truck stays out in the sun 24/7. And whatever you do, do not use the rattle can clear coat products. That stuff looks nice for about a year, and there are no second chances. The clear coat breaks down worse than the plastic itself. So Turtle wax scratch remover and my Harbor Freight handheld buffer. Takes about 15-20 mins per headlight. Makes a mess, but worth it. Just keep running the buffer until the paste dries up and clears off. Before and after:

1 pointHappy Birthday @cleat !!!

1 pointAlso, when I installed the engine with the new shaker mounts from Zach kerber there was a wire from the shaker mount bolt to directly to the shaker plate. Didn’t install it. Would it make a difference?
-
1 pointYou have to grind a notch in the shifter plate and the vertical plate. All the other holes are already there. Remove the cover plate on the out side of the lift lever and it bolts up right there. You can see I got mine notch too big, but this is a modifited worker. has a few more modifitation on it.

1 pointI bought one years ago for my 310-8 , I think it came from Partstree . It is not hard to do , you may have to modify the tunnel plate (where gear shift and brake is located) .

1 point@JCM Do you have a blower or back pack? Much easier on the body. Nice looking tractors and your property as well.

1 pointDid thay grease you up with Lucas green high temp grease, heard it good stuff get well soon.

1 pointPete, far be it from me, but do you read every thing you type before you post it ?? That is more then one sentence and a few breaths of air if you had to read that out loud. I doubt you really talk like that, but it really is hard to read and I do like what you have to say. It's just hard to get through sometimes...just sayin'. It does sound like you are OK. I'm not picking on you, but sometimes I give up trying to read one of your posts.
