DBlackston 298 #3182 Posted October 6, 2019 Doesn't look like much yet but I went and bought material for the HY-2 Rock Shaft I need to build. Picked up the material for a set of dual wheel adapters at the same time!! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I work pretty slow though so I wanted to wait until everything was complete and then post it all at once. When I post the HY-2 Rockshaft build I plan on posting drawings for every part except the pump and cylinder itself. It seems every time I see a post about one someone is missing a bracket or a pulley etc. So since I now have a complete one, minus a rockshaft. ( I have a later model shaft where the cylinder mounts to the foot rest area) I plan om helping everyone else out.

I have a complete functioning early assembly of the rockshaft, where the ram mounts to the axle, that I'd let you remove and copy. Unfortunately I'm using it and I don't want to be without it for an extended period of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also have the later style shaft that I was able to measure everything else off of. What I really want someone to have is an SR-64 idler bar to copy.

ZXT 2,401 #3191 Posted October 6, 2019 (edited) Took two of my Horses to a tractor show yesterday. I rode around on the C160 and a buddy of mine drove the C120. Got there, unloaded both of them, and the C120 wasn't charging. Cleaned the connections at the regulator and fixed that issue. Gassed them up and hopped on the C160 and it wouldn't start. No power to anything. Looked around and found a taped wire splice under the dash. Rigged it temporarily with a wire nut and we were good to go! Drove around for few hours at least and used less than 1/4 gallon of gas each. Not to shabby! This was the first time I've had any real seat time in the C160 since I bought it. One thing that I came away with from that show was that I hate the muffler on the C120. Noisy thing! You couldn't tell the C160 was running when next to it.. let alone talk to someone!

I don't care for those shower head mufflers. My 855 was super loud too when I bought it. Couple guys here suggested the Cub Cadet muffler, which goes in with minimal modification, and is noticeably quieter. All I had to do was put in a longer piece of pipe out of the head so it cleared the hood. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,549 #3193 Posted October 6, 2019 @ZXT I'll put in another vote for the Cub muffler. That's what the stacks are on both my B and C. They can easily be turned out n down as suggested by @adsm08. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you must stay Wheel Horse or you have one available to you, I have also found the 300 series mufflers used with the Magnum singles to be quiet yet functional... 774E46CD-9968-48EB-8C23-04FDF8C3D3CE.MOV 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy N. 2,154 #3196 Posted October 6, 2019 Mounted and tried out the new to me cultivators (that came with the donor 520-H) on the 418-A. Worked good for first run. Needs some minor adjustments and more weight. Oh, and finally put the new Wheel Horse decal on the back of the seat pan. 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
