    Nothing free about the internet…if you have it and plan to use it you must be willing to give up xx hours a day of your time aimlessly scrolling thru information and videos that you have no need for Biggest time gobbler ever!!!

    I was able to get it removed with the 3/16 bit and some pressure. Then replacing the screw was easy and it’s back driving again. Thanks for everyone’s help

    Wasn't sure whether to put this in the Sulky thread or the wagon thread. Only three items left to finish up, and my wife's ride for the Tri-State Antique Engine & Tractor Show & Flea Market will be ready to roll! Padded seat cover for the sulky Apply bedliner to the inside of the wagon Apply the Wheel Horse decal.

    And here the add-on hydraulic lift. Forward is up and back is down. We tried to reverse the front and rear hoses but one was too short.

    Heres plow setup on my RJ. The handle on right side is what angles the blade after the right pedal is depressed to release the pin. Working this summer on blasting & painting plow to make it look as nice as the tractor

    My first truck had one of those mounted on the inside of the fender well. Two rods ran directly from the pump and through the dashboard with knobs on them. One for up and down and the other for power angle.

    Thanks for that information! 62 years and still as useable as the day it was built! The cart does not have a metal ID tag. I have the Wheel Horse decal coming from @Vinylguy Perhaps I should duplicate the serial number decal as well, for future reference.

    That’s the HD42, I have that style also, works in the 60/61 models also. Foot pedal on right side also on the first version. And a rope on top of blade to pull it left or right angle, I like your addition, that arm is a great idea.

    My wife and I were returning from a road trip to Georgia a few days ago, and at a rest area somewhere along the way we heard and saw an old (late 60's / early 70's) VW bus flying down the highway, definitely not stock. We caught up to it and passed it later, sticker on the back window said it was a Busaru (VW bus with a Subaru engine), very cool! Total coincidence that I was wearing a t-shirt with a cool drawing of an old VW surfer bus that my daughter gave me after one of her Australia trips a few years ago. Love 'em, now I want one!

    My neighbor bought a C-121 Automatic that had previously been used as a mule at an airport. The hood has several warning stickers regarding safety checks when hooking to the plane. It has been fitted with some massive rear wheel hubs! At first, I thought they were repair hubs, but once removed the axles are in perfect condition. Anyone seen hubs like these before?

    One suggestion buy the longer dog point set screws on McMaster Carr ! I have had four or five issues with these shifter screws over the years. I had issues on rjs, square hoods and toro models. I usually buy several at a tome and keep to replace on my tractors. Easier to place longer ones in ‘

    They break right where the socket ends. A weak point.

    2nd on the citrus paint remover. I've done it. That stuff isn't very strong and will remove the spray paint much quicker than it will the old paint. But keep in mind if you leave it on too long it will burn into the old paint so do small portions at a time and rinse with water.

    I bought a pump from Northern Hydraulics since the original was NLA. Find the specifications for the original and buy the one that is close.

    Swapped out tires/rims on the 520. Don’t know why but the original deep offset rims were not on this unit. The previous owner had spacers between the rims and hubs. I replaced the Sears 23x10.50-12 tires/rims with a set of 24x12-12 tires/rims. Also Sears, don’t recall how I got them. Since these rims were not offset enough I installed a 1” spacer on each hub. The tires just barely cleared the mower deck enough to install without removing the deck first. picture #4 is with one of each size. If I push snow with this tractor tis winterI may have to swap back in order to install a set of chains.

    I haven't tried it YET but next best thing would be removing old decal and get some new ones from @Vinylguy on here.

    Hefty, Hefty, Hefty, not Wimpy, Wimpy, Wimpy. Ive seen some similar looking hubs on sumin but don't remember what they were on. May have been a Power King like @oliver2-44 mentioned above.

    Ah, the Elephant in the room..... where did the broken tip of the full dog point set screw that holds the donut actually go to?? Not into the Unidrive I hope...You have to find it.

    My Kwik- Way loader I bought with around 20 hours on it. I believe mine had a black plastic cap with possibly a vent hole in it from the factory. I have pics but not sure you can see a hole / vent ? It also called for ATF Fluid.

    Over the last few days.... replaced the coil, regulator and condensor on my 416-H. I hadn't realized that it had a "non-standard" coil on it, and the coil was overheating after 10-15 minutes and the engine would die. So far, it runs great now. Had to "customize" some spark plug cables because (again, didn't realize) the old coil had screw-in cable ends. Used what I had lying around Then, when I took it for a test drive, after about 50 feet of mowing there was a horrendous noise from the deck and it stopped cutting. Turns out the baffle decided to come loose on one end and "engage" with the mower blade.... got some welding to do now. Luckily I have 2 other working 48" SD decks and 3 running tractors. I pulled the 312-A into the garage and jacked it up - I think it's time for some deep cleaning and re-painting. Not a full restore, but I want it to look nice enough to put the chrome hubcaps and belt cover on. [Edit to add]: Oh, and I was swapping the rear wheels on those 2 tractors mentioned, and noticed that the hydro filter was getting rusty on the 416, hence realized it was overdue for a hydro oil and filter change, hence ordered some new filters. I already have an oil filter, new spark plugs, and fuel filter for the GT-1848. Need to get that maintenance done soon. Mowed the trails around the fields with the GT-1848. Have some more yard mowing to get done later today.

    Try regular charcoal lighter fluid on a small spot. I've had good luck with it in the past.

    One way to help out the central AC compressor is to add a start delay relay. This assures that it never tries to restart against residual pressure from the last cycle. It can add years to compressor motor life (including not unnecessarily taxing the start capacitor). Mine is for four minutes. My last compressor lasted over 30 years and the new unit is warrantied for 20.

    Probablh 12v. Solenoid turns on the pump when the lever is moved to one side but not the other (see the spring.) I’d bet it was from a small dump bed truck with a single-acting cylinder. Lever one way turns on pump and lifts the bed. Lever the other way drains cylinder back to the reservoir. Dyna Might Grand Rapids

    Thanks. Until recently I also had an Amigo, a Massey Executive, and a Minneapolis Moline MoCraft. Sold them to a gentlrman who made a 9 hour trip from Minnesota to get them.

    Less ply tires offer better grip. Maybe add chains and weights..but no offense at 350#you shouldn’t need additional wheel weights. Not a fan of ag tires. The Carlisle All-trails (Carlstar their called now I think) are my favorites and I run them on a couple of my machines. They are not a directional tire. The ones in this pic are 23 x8.00 x 12’s .

    Sounds to me like you are trying to mow too fast. Hydros speed up going down hill. A Wheel Horse tractor brake only locks one wheel, the other free wheels. I mow some banks that are steeper. I have to slow up before starting down with a hydro. they can get a lot faster even in a short distance.

    bought the 312-8 new in '89 - with the 37 deck and bagger - plus the plow, tiller, cart, roller etc - amazing machine ! I often wonder if the 312 was model WH made the most of and sold most? Seems to be so common across the WH universe ?

    Put the mid mount grader that I got from @Pullstart on it this evening, I need to get a longer lift link though as it doesn't go all they way to the floor.

    Spent the last few days making my tractor more Wisconsin. Now I need to get it some cheese curds. I put the wheelweights I bought from @WHX?? at the show on and went through the RM-425 deck I got from @Achto and put it on too. This deck was the nicest deck I've ever gone though so far. None of the bearings were seized and all of the grease looked good but I still cleaned it up and put some fresh Lucas green in it. The nla double-d blades looked like they had either never been sharpened or sharpened very little.

    Sorry, I should have been better in my original post. I'm thinking of selling the tractor and 60" deck complete, just as seen in the pics.

    Are you selling the 60" deck or the 520H with the deck? Pictures would be very helpful.
