Jacking the left side up a ways, I was able to get close to 2 qts in.  I figure if 2 is good for the limited slip cases, it might as well be good for this!

Other than wheel weights, the lead is holding this thing down!

Got my BoltDepot order a couple days early!  Inside wheel weights, here we come!

A bit of an update... the Fastenal RX keys were just the ticket to get this back together!  It’s a monster!  I think I’ll see about getting more weight up front, it is actually a bit light in the steering while it’s plowing.  In the video I’ll post, the engine was bogging.  I found a bit shorter and heavier spring on another 10 horse throttle assembly and swapped it out.  Big difference, no more bogging... in fact power to spare!

I figure I should update this thread.  Rebel had a wiring melt down before a Rylee got to do any plowing.  
 

I have sold the inside wheel weights and plan to convert to 12” wheels like Joe the 1054.  The 7” tires will move to this one, the 10” on Joe.
 

I am unsure on exactly what engine this’ll get, but it’s getting more power and thanks to @prondzy’s suggestion, a starer/stator setup instead of S/G.  Less rotating parts, less power rob, less to go wrong.

Tonight, I scored a set of front weights for a song at a local auction.  Yee haw!

Yikes!  Glad you located the source and can take care of that properly so that it won’t give you or Rylee issues in the future🙌🏻

 

Plow Day here we come!

Just curious if you ever took care of the red wire on the Genny or are you inviting another visit from the Ghost of Joseph Lucas again?

Rebel may have received a donor that still has magic smoke inside!  Thanks for stopping by today @Bentoolong!  For now, I might stick a deck on it and mow the back field/yard for a bit...  

 

There’s a pretty cool patch on the lower half of the flywheel shroud... I think I like it!
