9 pointsI've been working on the back 12 feet of my barn. In one corner I'm building a 12x14 paint room. More on that later. [emoji2]. In the other corner we built a 12x14 guest room. We call it the "Bunkhouse". Had to finish these so I could get back to the Wheel Horse projects. Here's a shot from the garage area. With the paint room doors on the left. After carpet. After Mrs. Funengineer was done[emoji2]. Sent from my tractor seat.

7 pointsMy winter projects are coming along nicely. I wanted to get everything done last fall because it was such a tuff winter last year, and I did. So my winter projects are...sleep late in the mornings, go ice fishing when the temp is in the 20's, light the fire place and watch as much football & basketball as I can, eat a lot of comfort food. I can report that the time line is looking good for a successful winter this year.

5 pointsProbably right either throw it back or use it for chum for full growed ones Couldn't leave it where it was

3 pointsDon't feel bad. Wives can smell "hobby" when it comes in the house. I was in the garage (detached) cleaning some parts with clear 1-K kerosene the other night. I always wear latex gloves which are disposed of in the garage. I was careful to take my shoes off outside, take my work pants off in the laundry room and put on my pajama pants. I took the pants back out to the garage, washed up in the basement, and came upstairs free of odor, or so I thought. Within 10 seconds of coming into the living room where my wife was reading, she said "I smell gasoline". Whether they are pregnant or not, wives are gonna complain about smelling something. Vent that paint booth and get back to work. I'll be hiding under this chair.

3 pointsMy winter project so far has been to get my shop organized and ready for some actual work... Electrician finally finished the wiring for my plasma table and air compressor. Ignore the orange thing in the background. It was a gift from my wife's grandfather. Now it looks more like this on the front portion. After a few minor issues, the snow pushing machine has done great the rest of the winter...

3 pointsI insulated my garage this summer and fall, so with my 45,000 BTU Hot Dawg propane heater I'm staying toasty warm this winter. I am currently working on my 416-H.

3 pointsI also built this k181 out of extra parts over the last month

2 pointsIf I post big pics, when I'm finally done, there will be very little of the "holy crap" factor!! I want to keep you guys panting!! Kind of like foreplay!! LOL
-
2 pointsMoved my paint booth into the heated garage with great intension to finish my economy painting before spring to come to realize it's an attached garage and the fumes and a pregnant wife aren't on the same terms, so have been on a stand still and it's driving me crazy!
-
2 pointsTry putting some vaseline grease over the throttle shaft, if its leaking air this should show it up? (Check me out giving advise, I've only been here five minutes, it just goes to show what you can learn here from all these clever people)

2 pointsTecumseh's Rule . . . just ask these guys from the the Tecumseh Club. I think that's the president in the center

2 pointsWell, Dad's doing great, going to thecan on his own, feeding himself just fine, dressing himself, the whole ball of wax. Should be ready to escape the rehab center in a few days!! I hope to have the beast ready for a start up once he gets out. Any way, here are a few sneak peeks at some goodies!! Getting ready to finish engine wiring ... Just love this little gem!! It;s whats up front that counts!!

2 pointsI have one with bad soild state ignition I just love pushing it around from one corner to the other
-
2 pointsI'm trying too decide how I want this one to look. First pic is as I bought it, second is the idea stage.. Once I decide on what I really want to do with it I'll tear it all down and put a real nice paint job on it. I might go with the big tires in back with tri ribs on stock front rims painted white? (as the slots are off of my Suburban.) I might go with a different decal idea.,the 855 decals are kinda boring. Oh, and I hope to find something big too stuff under the hood. Maybe an Onan, Kohler twin or a Briggs Vanguard twin. I gotta have at least 18 hp on this one...

2 pointsThe two hyd lines connect to the FACE of the end cap. The two PORTS for the spring, cone, ball, etc are on the SIDES of the end cap. The ball and spring should already be in your end cap, in the rear port. NEXT.....(1) Remove the rear port plug and withdraw the ball and spring. (2) Remove the front port plug and put that ball and LIGHT spring in there. (3) Install the shorter HEAVIER spring and cone in the rear port.

1 pointMust really move out, 15" tires on a transmission meant for 12" should make it go rather fast.
-
1 pointLove the 953s. The ignition switch is a 2 wire no/off key switch, the starter push button that looks like a headlight dimmer switch from a '70s or earlier car. If you look at the exploded view of the dash area in the manual they will both be shown. Good luck.

1 pointNo heat in the barn equals no projects for me, although I do go into the barn occasionally with a nice cold beverage, look at the tractors and say nice to myself! Except when I get to the xi and then I think, dang can't wait until it gets warm out so I can figure out why it won't start!
-
1 pointNo...haha...one ran into the sliding door...it was dazed for about 15 minutes and then it really like being held and petted I guess...it sat on my hand and then on the feeder and back to my hand.....I got my phone and then it flew down behind that heater.....

1 pointYou can rebush [you need 2] the throttle shaft. Ace Hardware / Hillman part # 58087-A. I have done 2 and what a difference it makes especially in the starting time. I don't know if this would solve your problem, just wanted to let you know about bushing them. And I learned it here some time ago. These bushings are for the big block carbs. 26/28/30.

1 pointWhen the cast iron Tecky's are running right they are smooth and powerful. Honestly they are a good engine that gets a bad rap,I mean with so many still running around 50 years later they can't be too bad. There are two different kinds of SSI units,one is under the flywheel the other is all above the flywheel. Here is a under the flywheel type in a 68 HH120.

1 pointYou didn't tell me that tractor I got off you was used to throw manure TT! The neighbor told me my high-chute snowblower on the C-175 does the same thing when I do his driveway. It's stone and I keep the blower off the surface.
-
1 pointWell then I would accept the honor bestowed upon me as 1 of the lucky few who had something bad happen and pulled through
-
1 pointJohn, wow wow wow. That about sums it up. No, let me throw a SWEET on that to. Good job Terry. Glenn

1 pointOur squirrels are kept at bay by a couple of red tail hawks in the neighborhood. Some times they take a dove when the squirrels are absent from the feeders. But the hawks have to eat also.
-
1 point12 auto. First horse I ever cut grass with, and I hope to find another someday. I really like the 416H though. I like it better than the 520 for most things.
-
1 point'61 to '64 "round hoods" for me. I'm quite fond of the pewter WorkHorse models too.
-
1 pointHeck yes, throw a small hydraulic pump on the drive belt line and have the best of both worlds!
-
1 pointthe transmission date codes are subjective it does have a 58 style seat you need to look at the tractor as a hole because over fifty years parts can be changed it's definitely a RJ 1958/59 model Brian
-
1 pointSorry haven't been on much guys, we've been working on restoring Horses night and day trying to keep up with demand. Will try to get a few pics of them on here somewhere. It's a great job to have though! Thought I would put up a pic of the new help...

1 pointI like the mid engine tractors best, but if I had to choose a favorite in my collection currently it would be the 55 rj35 I just picked up.

1 pointRed Horses! My best friends! "Red is for the blood we shed." Sorry Deere!
