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. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greentored 3,214 #8584 Posted January 8, 2021 10 hours ago, WHX24 said: Now I hate to call @Greentored a stooge for trading me this nice square pan for a round one. He might not know it but square pans are hens teeth, around here anyway. My 701 thanks you Green! Yeah, I'm still learning some noob lessons haha- that 654 trail bomber I sold had a square pan seat on it, and worse yet I am QUITE sure they were the original front rims that would've been correct for my 701- and they weren't rotted out! As for the deal WE made- I'm happy to see a round pan on Hoss and a square pan where it belongs- on a 701! With the mention of hens teeth, I must request access to your cooler for a cold beverage or two one day when we get a chance to meet Your old round pan got blasted, primed and shot with a rattle can of Wimbledon white yesterday- haven't even bolted it in place yet. 7 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greentored 3,214 #8585 Posted January 8, 2021 Raided the scrap at work, plugged in the welder and wrapped up the blade yesterday. Best of all it works! Hope I get to shake it down today- weatherman still says snow here, but right now its 33 and sleet. Minor details and a quick shot of paint come after testing. 7 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,883 #8586 Posted January 8, 2021 @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. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jhook 849 #8589 Posted January 9, 2021 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. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you so much. sparkie. 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👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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???

Jeff-C175 7,202 #8599 Posted January 10, 2021 (edited) 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!
