One is a 1993, the other is a 1996. Now, I desparety need a like new, 48", Model 78361 deck for my 520H. If someone wants the 520's then find me a deck. I'll trade where the 520's are located for where my deck is located. There is also a very nice 2 stage blower and tiller for sale at the same location. Sorry to have to be an ass, but nobody wants to come off a deck. The WH hogs stockpile everything they can, and just let it sit in a shed somewhere and rot away. I guess I'm one of the WH hogs stock piling decks, granted not that many but enough to make sure I have enough to last my life time and a little bit further if one of the kids or someday grand kids want one. I think I have three saved up plus 2 that i use. there is a guy Glen Cockerham that advertise on c/l in reading Pa that he has lots of deck for sale although shipping to the west coast might be a bit pricey. good luck eric j 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Meet and greet, go places, talk, ask questions, go to some shows, swap meets, etc. Once your phone has ten of twelve wheel horse guys and gals listed you will have more ways of finding parts, tractors and information that you even wanted ! Good advise, but it is a long way to row the boat to go to meet you guys. Would be nice though!

WHX?? 46,739 #31 Posted August 17, 2017 Here's what you do Skipper keep an eye out on the internet for what you are looking for. If you see something that piques your interest use the member map http://www.wheelhorseforum.com/membermap/ or give a shout out here on a thread for a member that might be nearby and could go check it out for you. If the stars are aligned and you were meant to have it see if said member can pick it up and hold it for you till you can arrange shipping. You'll find guys here that might be local, are strait shooters and will bend over backwards to help another member score a tractor and 99% of us have the means to haul one. Have you tried putting up a wanted ad in in the classifies section? http://www.wheelhorseforum.com/classifieds/wanted/ 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People will list tractors under antiques , barter and other categories . Yes a bunch of other stuff will pop up but you won't miss it if it was listed under antiques. Then I also search city by city which takes a lot of time . You'll see a lot of the same stuff but it seems there's always one tractor that pops up only in that city for some reason . Then if you do find something don't hesitate , run don't walk , jump on it quick . We have a old saying on this side of the pond maybe you already know it but " if you snooze you loose " .

Yes.. just a little of an affliction . It pays off though...like finding a NOS K91 for $99 that was under antiques . It was listed for two weeks and I was the first caller ! As your newest hire Jim @WHX12 , now I can do it on company time and get paid for it... ! Edited August 17, 2017 by ACman 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
