raider9 40 #1 Posted November 22, 2016 Bought a Commando 6 with a snow blower and wheel weights for $250. It was in bad shape and kind of mangled up, so I'm just rat rodding it out. I had a spare Tecumseh HH100 sitting on the shelf and that's also what came on the tractor I bought, so I'm taking the two and making one that runs. It's not going to be original but it sure is fun. The picture is after I completed a lot of work. Thinking about keeping it as my winter set up when I'm done with it. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raider9 40 #4 Posted November 22, 2016 I didn't think to take before pictures. I guess I just get too excited to get to work. I've only had it for 2 weeks now and it's almost ready to role. I love making them run again. Anyway, I'll snap some pictures when I get home and post them. I had to buy a fuel pump and carb rebuild kit and then I'll have to figure out how to make a 10HP engine pulley line up on a 6 HP tractor. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SPINJIM 1,981 #5 Posted November 23, 2016 Nice work so far. I have a commando 6, and am putting a Briggs 8hp on it (gave up on the Tecumseh). I went to surpluscenter.com website to get a pulley that would work. They have more sizes available than anyone I've found. The Commando 6 is a fun tractor, and is similar to the 857 / 856 that is so popular. I like the 'short frames' in general. Keep the pictures coming. I'd like to see side angles.

raider9 40 #6 Posted June 25, 2017 Sorry! It took me forever to get back on here and post these. I used her all winter long but the carb float got a hole and then the threads for the bowl wore out. I bought a used one and rebuilt it. She's running like a top again now. Fun little machine! The 10 Horse works great, you just have to be careful on how fast you let the clutch out. First time I took it out I did a wheelie and about flipped over backwards due to the torque of it. Hope you like the pics! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
