Hello all, a buddy of mine has a wheel horse 417-8 that needs a rebuild. Does anyone know where he could get a rebuild kit? Thanks!

If he still has the Kohler KT17 engine, (this engine would not have an oil filter) I would take it apart and see if it is worth rebuilding. The last few of these that I've had apart were way too worn to consider the rebuild, ex .060 over on the cylinders just to get them straight. If he has the engine with an oil filter or he still wants to rebuild a KT17 try pesp.biz they might have what you need.

Just took a quick look, they have kits for the KT17 up to .030 over.

      "Pond" Wheel Horse Walk Behind
      By Aaron Coffman
      Hi Red Square Community,
       
      I am looking into purchasing the below pictured "POND" Walk Away. The unit itself has the cast in “POND” on the chain reduction housing. The two main things I am looking to learn are what value is typical for these to sell for. This one has a Briggs & Stratton model “N” engine. It runs and drives, but the throttle linkage needs some adjusting. It comes with a cultivator and plow implement. 
       
      Secondly, I was wondering if there is any way to determine what year specifically this Pond is from. The seller believes late 1940s and not 1950s. I am new to these machines, so I am looking for some guidance. Thank you in advance!

      Wanted wheel horses
      By 87 416-8 horse
      I’m looking for wheel horse tractors for sale or for parts in the Eastern Nebraska or western Iowa area. Preferably 8 speed manuals. Pm me or comment with what you have. The worst I could say is it’s out of my price or distance range. Edit: engine is not important, it’s going to get an engine swap.
      Thanks,
      John
