Nice to hear I'm not the only one he  makes nervous.....

A boss who I readily called a friend was close to a family that lost 2 kids that way. 

Bad scene.....

Bad news on that Onan @WHX24 the cylinders are shaped like an egg at the top. About .007 out on the thrust surface. Crank looks like it just needs a polish & the one rod needs to be replaced. I'll call you with the details.

Suspected that Dan that's why I wanted you to cross check me. Good news might have found some 10 over sets on the cheap.

No kids in the bucket... but we’ve been known to lean it on a tree to hang a bird house.

Kevin, knowing your history I expect we will see photographic evidence of why you shouldn't do this next time.      :scared-eek:   If there is a next time.

@ebinmaine @WHX24 truth be told, “Stormy” is one of the choice tractor rides not because of the loader, that in a way makes it cumbersome.  It’s the high back seat and arm rests, plus it’s one of our quietest in the fleet.  :handgestures-thumbupright:

Got my Indonesian tires in from ebay today. They are called "rubbermasters" and supposedly have a 700 lb weight rating each. They feel slightly weaker than my mountain bike tires😂😂 i am mounting them on the charger wheels and may need to air them up at work tomorrow if i can't get them seated. They look and feel like absolutely terrible quality tires but wait for the catch.... 14 bucks a piece lol we will see how long they hold up.

50-150 tops from what ive seen. Rear engine riding mowers are not very pricey at all but they do work great for what they are👍

Well they said it run and mowed looks ok good but not like redone. They ask 150.  I was not looking for that one but in the picture I seen several other WH. That I could just make out-- but not enough to say what they were. So did they have a Kohler in them???

Factory wheels with new tires are back on. Much better than the 6 inch wheels and the rims match the loader 😂

Installed a set of Zach's solid motor mounts.  Just finished up so too late to start it to see how it feels, but the muffler doesn't hit the hood anymore when I engage the PTO!  Wonder how much more 'solid' it's going to be, probably like a hard tail Harley!

 

I realize that the ground bond jumper is not needed with the solids, but I wanted to keep it anyway.

The one on the 'driver side' front is a BEAR to get to with the starter motor and exhaust in the way.  Ratchet didn't fit, pair of open end wrenches, took forever to do this one!
