Started my road trip at 5:30 Friday morning, all went well. :auto-driving: Met some really nice people and seen some REALLY nice wheel horse tractors.

Pictures are of my Durango(hemi powered) with trailer. A nice C195 that was in chelsea, the D 160 that I bought and a couple pic's of down town chelsea, MI.

I all so picked up a D snow blower in Fenton, Mi. but have not taken pic's yet. started snowing and wanted to hit the road. :auto-swerve:

Just want to say a BIG THANK YOU to the people I met and that helped load my new toys. :eusa-clap::text-thankyoublue:

Kelly! I figured he would have snatched that c195 up. Chelsea is a nice little town. Years ago I helped a buddy work on his house near there. Nice horses by the way!

I sent him a message also, he told me of a guy in his town that has a large collection of D series and other tractors. Wanting to know if they are for sale, might be making another trip to chelsea. Maybe a weekender so I can stop by your place.

Thanks.

      D series Belt Replacement
      By BuffaloD200
      Hey all, I need to install a drive belt on my 75 D180 for my snowblower.  I've looked through a bunch of D-series owner's manuals, and none seem to mention replacement procedure.  The PTO pulley is fixed, save for engaging the PTO and there is minimal movement at the snowthrower pulley. There's no idler or tensioner as far as I can tell.  Do I have to remove the PTO pulley?  That seems to be a required service item.
      Same question for my 80 D200 as well really.  
       
      Using the recommended 4L490W belt.
       
      Thanks

      Governor for a D-180
      By ihatephones
      I got a D-180 for $250, and the governor is messed up, the points won't open or close, and I took it apart and was being stupid and messed some stuff up in there, and now I need a new one.
      Where can I get one that's not on eBay for $200?
      I also forgot to say it was a Kohler K482, and I'll throw some pictures of the tractor in as a treat.

      IT'S a D-180 & IT'S all MINE!!
      By Southern_Secret
      Hello fellow Horse Heads long time no post for me, life gets crazy & a lot of things change sometimes but anyhoo. So back a few years ago when I first got my 1994 314-H I had it at my shop going threw it. One of my customers walk past as im working and said, you know I think Iv got a Wheel Horse & im thinking "no you dont buddy". I give him my # to send pics thinking it was a big waste of time & after getting the pics I realized he did have a Wheel Horse! I hand shake bought it right there, asked him to bring it to my store & he said no problem. Well after almost 2 years it is finally in my orbit. I know very little about it other than his father-inlaw got it new and used it around his house moving snow and stuff. His father inlaw moved down south here when his daughter got married and gave the tractor to my customer because he had a farm & his the inlaw had no use for it anymore. Same with every barn find, "it was running when parked" 8 years ago, said one of the axel seal is leaking. Im happy and hope I can get it back in running order soon cause it is going to be handy around the truck farm!!
       
      I will post Pics as soon as I reinstate my membership
