WheelHorse520H 708 #102 Posted October 1, 2021 Nice exhaust there @kpinnc, I have the same problem with the photos. I just need to scrape up enough dough to pay for it before I spend it on tractors! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LOL they make commercial grade air filters and housings. Way better than the OEM donut filters. 3 hours ago, ebinmaine said: no more limit. Absolutely among the best $20 a year I spend. Seems kinda wonky that the limit is a moving goalpost. 6MB one day, 1MB the next. 1 hour ago, WheelHorse520H said: Nice exhaust there @kpinnc, I have the same problem with the photos.

Nothing big all at once, just $10 about every day! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most commercial equipment use these, and they are great. I had this one left over from my Scag repower, so I might as well use it. They typically mount on top, but no room for that on a Wheel Horse. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muffler on PTO side and the breather on the other. I need to come down and see that beast when you get finished with all the extra details. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The biggest spot was behind the headlights, but the hood would not close. Yes sir- come by and see it anytime! My stickers will be here tomorrow, so it's getting very close to completion! I just repainted the wheels tonight. I didn't like the paint as it was originally. No real color change, but the paint is much better, and the finish is better too.

WheelHorse520H 708 #110 Posted October 3, 2021 Hey @kpinnc we’ve all had one of those packages that gets soooo close and just hangs there for too long. Then again anytime we wait for tractor parts is too long, right? If you have more photos I’d love to see ‘em that looks great. Excellent job. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lee1977 6,656 #111 Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) On posting pictures i use " postimages. org" It's a little shifting back and forth but it gets the job done. They will sometimes add other pictures or advertisement to your picture. I just delete it before submitting the reply. Here is a picture of the top transmission braced receiver hitch. They add something about baby names to the one above I just backed it off. Edited October 3, 2021 by Lee1977 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Less about modified I guess but more like hand built out of spare parts... What do you do with a 23 horse flat twin engine that you didn't even plan on owning? You build a tractor around it.

Some more, some less, but all have changes to them. What is the criteria? The tractor in this thread is a combination of parts from different tractors and some things that never came on a Wheel Horse. Frame and tranny: 312-H Sheetmetal and tower: 518-H Front axle and steering: 520-H Many other bits: 520-8 Engine- built from 2 different Vanguard's parts.

Well, there are a lot of guys who keep their horse stock... you know, stock engine, stock paint, stock everything... like a vintage Wheel Horse. Guys who swap engines, modify the body of their horses, different paint, blah blah blah. Anything than stock. @fast88pu is a good example, my tractor, and what you are doing here, @kpinnc...
