chazm 413 #1 Posted January 5, 2014 Had the 314 out yesterday plowing & it kicked azz The brake pedal conversion worked great, the new chains bit without spinning once & the flashing taillights kept me safe ( as if they couldn't see my fat azz on a big red tractor, but better safe than sorry ) Yea I know the drill ...pics...pics...pics Brake pedal & linkage removed New brake linkage install on clutch arm & adj. up. A return spring added to help the cheesy damper thingy Click on video of lights Its a little different working out of a wheel chair, but we gotter done !!!!

chazm 413 #11 Posted January 6, 2014 What kind of flasher did you use. And here can i get one? You can use any 2 or 3 prong turn-signal flasher from the auto parts store Chasm 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,698 #12 Posted January 6, 2014 Good for you Chasm...glad you were able to get it done. Be careful out there. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JC 1965 1,530 #13 Posted January 6, 2014 Thanks Chazm for the ifno. I will probably wire my tail lights to flash when I push snow cause I have to drive down the street to my neighbors to clean his drive. I don't want to get run over by someone texting or doing some of the crazy things people do when they drive. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chazm 413 #14 Posted January 6, 2014 Exactly the reason I did it Jerry... Too many knuckle heads out there sleeping @ the wheel ... Chasm 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JC 1965 1,530 #15 Posted January 9, 2014 Hey Chazm, Could you give me a little info. on how to wire this flasher to my tail lights ? It's the 3 prong model. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chazm 413 #16 Posted January 9, 2014 (edited) Jerry - the wire going to the taillights connects it to the X terminal on flasher & connect the taillights to the center terminal Chasm Edited January 9, 2014 by chazm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roscoemi 245 #18 Posted January 9, 2014 (edited) The po of my tractor did the same thing. I can have the front and rear lights on or flashing, depending on the position of the 3 way toggle switch. If the locals get too careless, I may change the lenses to red and blue! Edited January 9, 2014 by roscoemi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boovuc 1,090 #21 Posted January 25, 2014 You guys south of me near the Manson-Nixon line are getting more snow than we have in the mountains in Central Penna. Why is that? But then again, I would rather get my seat time mowing than blowin' anyway! Hold on........it's the Mason-Dixon line down there. The Manson-Nixon line is between Washington DC and California. I always get them confused! Good work and nice tractor! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
