fireman 1,021 #1 Posted September 16, 2010 Been wanting to make a puller for a while. The kids have a go-kart that we just don't have anywhere to ride. Saw an ad on CL for a for sale or trade and he was looking for a cart. Talked to the kids and they wanted to do the trade so they can pull too. So off I went and made the deal today. Also stopped by Matt's house and picked up the tub-cart I bought from him. Mower came with a really nice deck too. It's a 79 C-101. Runs good with no smoke. Not going to go crazy with this one seeing as it's just a puller but it still will get a paint job, full tune up and fluid change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fireman 1,021 #3 Posted September 16, 2010 I only paid $200 for the go-cart 2 years ago so I'm not complaining :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevebo-(Moderator) 8,330 #5 Posted September 16, 2010 Looks good Jeff. Is that a rubber mounted motor or is the C100 ?? I guess I have to get the Commando set up for pulling now :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JimD 3,345 #14 Posted September 17, 2010 Great deal Jeff, but if I had that one, it wouldn't be a puller. It would be a pusher with a snow blade on it. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hodge 6 #16 Posted September 18, 2010 Nice, Jeff. I LOVE my C-101. I bought it off the original owner, and it pulls a 48" deck great. That 10 horse Kohler has a lot of torque. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fireman 1,021 #20 Posted September 20, 2010 Spent a few hours today fabricating an adjustable pulling hitch. Just need to make the actual plate that the chain gets hooked to. Gonna try to sneak one or two pulls in before the winter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duff 206 #21 Posted September 21, 2010 Gonna try to sneak one or two pulls in before the winter. How about Jack's pull in Granby this Sunday? Duff :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fireman 1,021 #22 Posted September 21, 2010 Unfortunately we are camping this weekend and I have to be at the Kent show on Saturday to boot. So trying to swing everything would be impossible. Plus where that is being held would be 140 miles each way for me. Wish I could go! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
