usually full of the black brush crap that is no fun to flush out

I take them apart outside and wash it all down with Windex. Don't want that carbon dust all over the shop.

I wash mine out with electric motor cleaner.

I didn't do anything to it today, but I was on my way home from a party and saw a Work Horse out in a guy's drive way around the corner from me. Looked pretty nice too.

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! :ychain: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 :lol: '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!

Trying to hook my 7-1211 tiller to my C161 and I don't know how to hook up the lift cable. 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 :banana-wrench: I would need a few parts. I'm glad the Big Show is coming soon! :banana-linedance:

Gotcha.  Yep, we’re camping at the show this year.  If all goes well, we’ll use the tractor deck to haul our machines to WI in July and camp there too 👍

@Lane Ranger if you get a chance could you take a picture of how that angle handle is mounted to the plow frame? Thinking i need to modify mine but wanted to cross check it

Tractor boy:  Here are some  pics of the handle for angling the front dozer blade.   You know this handle can be tunred around to clear your foot rest if need be on certain models.
