WHX?? 48,828 #2463 Posted June 10, 2019 (edited) I gotta rig up a front ball one of these day Horse Fan Put the 857 back together just to move it out the shop.Then cleaned up the shop abit and got the bike out of winter storage.. Axle bearings are going to have to wait on the 857 for another day. Worked on the'83 A-81 deck spindles.... all new bearings. Turns out they are the same very common B-1616 bearings and seals used in the 3 speed trannies. Plan is to make a high speed grass eatin beaver out of her! Z turns ain't gonna have nothin on her! FINALLY went to work on this deuce that @WVHillbilly520H was supposed to come over and finnish but he got no time! Got the upgrade bearing spacers made. Figured I best git at it since snow equipment is this years fearure at the BS....I know I know ... making a career out of this project but if @pullstart can make a project last a lifetime so can I 'Sides who wants to think snow in the summer! Was figuring @Achtowould get tired of seeing it in my garage and help out but nnnooooo ..he's too busy with new to hims! Just can't find good help these days!

I'm thinking if I hook it to the top of the bar near where I'm stretching it to it will work shown in the eighth image. However, I would have to drill a hole in the top of the bar to attach the chain. It also will be very close to the gas tank when lifted as shown in the seventh image and I'm concerned whether it will damage the gas tank. Maybe I can cut off a section of the bracket where it comes near the tank? I'm also looking for a replacement idler pulley because the bearing is rusted tight. I found this advertised for $50 and I'm thinking of getting it to put together for my tiller tractor I would need a few parts. I'm glad the Big Show is coming soon! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
