Jake Kuhn 1,555 #2 Posted August 26, 2015 Howard, Bud Andrews Makes those stacks. I'm not sure if he is on this site or not. I know he posts in the facebook tractors groups quite a bit. Should be able to find him on there, if not let me know and I'll hook you up with him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 41,165 #3 Posted August 26, 2015 Howard did they look like these? Bud Makes these. He's working on a Hot Rod Horse now but when he's done I hope to get some from him when he makes more. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 41,165 #8 Posted August 26, 2015 Bud is on FB a lot. WH Junkies. Join the group. I informed Bud a while back to let me know when he gets some made. Craig, I was planning on picking one up for you and holding it for ransom ! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aldon 4,826 #9 Posted August 26, 2015 Is the Muffler section custom made and if so, any improvement over the usually available Stanley style? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Racinbob 11,100 #16 Posted August 26, 2015 I agree. It proportional to the tractor size. I'm curious about the muffler section too and would live a video. Anybody out there got one?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bud Andrews 237 #22 Posted September 2, 2015 Hello, fellas, Thanks for liking my stacks. This is how I make them, they are good and heavy duty and should last for years. I was welding them together, but lately I figured out how to crimp them together and they look much nicer now, like the one in the last photo. It takes me about 2 hours to build one from scratch and the materials cost me between 10 and 12 bucks, depends on where I can buy stuff. I ask 30 dollars plus shipping ( usually 8 dollars more ) when I sell them through the mail. Thanks again for your interest , much appreciated ! I don't always have them made and on hand, I work in spurts, LOL It's just a hobby, not a job, but I like helping out with your tractors whenever and as soon as I can. I make reproduction Wheel Horse cigarette lighters and hood screws for round hood tractors at times, too. Thanks for looking, I am usually on Facebook at Wheel Horse Junkies more than I'm on Red Square, its much easier to get ahold of me there. 24 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bud Andrews 237 #23 Posted September 2, 2015 (edited) P.S. > they sound as good as, if not better than, any store bought muffler, they are not loud - about the same as a stock one. I've been painting them with High Temp Rustoleum stove and grille paint and it seems to be holding up good, otherwise they would be just bare metal and would rust if left out in the damp. They are standard 1 inch pipe threads, the coupler can be changed that is on the bottom if you need to reduce it up or down to another size by getting another coupler at your hardware store. I only make them this one size. Edited September 2, 2015 by Bud Andrews more information 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
