10 pointsMet some really good friends at the big show this year! We met up with our friends from Canada!! @WheelhorseWes and his wonderful family! Hubby wanted a 1961 551 and scored one! My birthday present to him.. It was a two tractor deal..so we made it a chance to see our new friends as Wes was interested in the 854. So we both have new horses for our stables!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 We went out to eat and visited!! It was a great time!!

10 pointsHi Guys, Like a couple of other newbies, I really had a great time meeting so many like-minded folks at the show this past weekend, very passionate about Wheel Horse tractors and their history. I only wish I had more time to spend at the show to study tractors and jaw-jack! I've been collecting and showing tractors most of my life, but this was the very first time that I've shown Wheel Horses - and must say that I kinda liked it! I definitely caught the WH bug this past year... Hearing that the "Horse Barn" at the fair grounds will be dedicated for Wheel Horses going forward, I'm excited to see this show turn into an annual, Wisconsin WH gathering! Thanks, Rob

9 pointsThe weather forecast for today is hitting the highest since 2013 and oppressive humidity rivaling the central Florida weather. I would have been fine if they postponed it but we were on the schedule. Fortunately the clouds have kept the temps down a bit but the threat of rain has them keeping their guard up.

9 pointsI know the paint job is a desecration. By chance I was able to acquire this. Any thoughts? Year, rarity, value? Original tires....?

8 pointsWell, I wasn't planning on this purchase, but the listing was relatively close, and I thought it would be a quick fun project. I was also thinking it might be a good machine to leave up on some property to cut grass with once or twice a month. It came with an extra set of ag tires, wheel weights, a brinly cultivator, brinly moldboard plow, and snow plow. The 42" SD deck had new spindles put on it that are the newer style, so I'm pretty excited about that. I was excited to get it home and see what was under all that dirt! So I got the pressure washer out, and washed the dirt off. I accidentally blew the C120 stickers off with the pressure washer, but I contacted @Vinylguy and he is going to hook me up. It looks like a nice machine! It was repainted once before, but they didn't do a bad job. The new china carb should be here on Friday, so once it arrives, i'll start messing with it. I can't wait to hear it run! I included pictures of it sitting at the previous owners house, loaded up on the trailer, and after it was pressure washed.

7 pointsThe “crew” continues to make headway... Judge and Zach are removing nails from the old wood... @Coulter Caleb is installing the new hidden fastener Trex decking! What’s dad doing???? 🤔 Good question!

7 pointsI had my 753 at Portage last weekend. It was my 1st time at the show and it was great to meet all the fellow wheelhorse people.

6 pointsMoved a couple horses to the off site storage. Then picked these two up on the way home. Bob Maynard is right, this downsizing isn't working.
-
6 pointsHere is a video of a 2” cut. I realize I should probably have more PPE and also noticed that I seem to chew when I’m thinking! There’s not much in that noggin, especially in my mouth! Also, I’m testing my depth to make my bend points. I cannot believe how clean this cuts, I could probably get into the key cutting business with it!

6 pointsCongrats James. Really nice 120 auto. and well equipped. My 120 auto was my first WH and after buying and selling 50+ tractors, I still have the 120. Mine has the Tecky HH120, but it has been trouble free and always starts and runs strong.

4 pointsTrina and I are headed north in the morning to stay at the campground this weekend for the Owl's Head Transportation Museum annual truck and tractor show weekend. @JCM Jim you have my number. FYI.. we'll be having a picnic lunch and we'd be happy to have you and your wife share. If anyone else is planning to attend we'd love to see you. Feel free to PM me. Cinnamon is loaded on the trailer and Pony will be in the morning. Pics to follow......

4 pointsPicked up a 50” sickle bar yesterday. Seems like its all there. Gonna try and put it on a tractor this weekend. Is it meant for a long frame or short frame tractors or both? Also not exactly sure how it goes on so any help will be greatly appreciated. Here are a few pictures, I will get better ones this weekend.

4 pointsA friend told me about a guy that had some round hoods for sale. Among them is this what I was told us a RJ 35. I'm kinda interested in it but I have no idea what to offer. It is going to need a lot of work to get it up and running I think. Looks to be all there he has no idea on a price as well what should i offer for a fair price if i decide to do so. Any thoughts thanks
-
4 pointsMade it! To prevent so much shrinkage when I fill the gap, I’ll find some threaded rod or the like to wedge into the open space. It’ll save a ton of welding too.
-
4 pointsNot sure it needs a restoration. If it was mine I would install the missing decals, paint the rims, get the new tire(s) and go thru it mechanically and use it.
-
4 pointsCan you imagine Kevin and Stefan discussing the details of something they are going to build? Be like being back at school in a maths lesson.

3 pointsYes straight up carbide likes flood coolant but tin coated solid carbide(read "Exocarb") usually just air blowing out the chips will suffice (maybe an air line regulated down to 15-30 psi some hillbilly fashioned attached so to blow the chips out of the way and cool the blade at same time while cutting )... and again speed and feed and depth of cut all make a difference JMO.

3 pointsMight not help anybody in hurry, but on Kohler carb where steel throttle shaft eggs out pot metal/aluminum body to the extent the butterfly wears notch in throat & governor gets stuck; drill the carb body out to size the hole will be round (5/16) and epoxy in a brass nut that has 1/4" or right size hole for throttle shaft and you're good another 25 yr. This is how we dealt with it before internet and foreign carbs.

3 pointsWayne was our neighbor at the Portage, Wisconsin Garden Daze Show. Glad you joined Red Square Wheel Horse Forum Wayne!
-
3 pointsTesting the ability to cold form the bends. So far I’m at 49 degrees on a 2” piece. The biggest bend is close to 85 degrees, so I’ve got a little further to go!
-
3 pointsI put one on the K-321 in the low rider. It has worked fine with the only issue being the reversed choke linkage. It wasn't a problem for me as I installed custom throttle and choke linkage.
-
3 pointsI had good luck with the rip off carb on Putt Putt, but I was in a time crunch June of last year and didn’t want to mess with the throttle shaft play. If I had that much hassle from one or two, I’d be in the same boat. Plus, nobody knows how long the cheap ones actually last... I’m sure the materials they use are a much poorer quality.
-
3 pointsTrans turned out to be a 5060 so it looks like somebody did a conversion long time ago. I'm going to keep it the same as I got it.

3 pointsThat is a very nice complete '55 or '56 RJ. Engine isn't right and the fuel tank appears to be missing, but all things considered it is nice. If that RJ-35 showed up on it would probably have a budding war and go for at least $ 500! The belt guard and steering wheel are each worth over $ 100. The 1960 Suburban choke/throttle handles could be removed and sold for $ 50 to $ 100.
-
3 pointsI know what I would offer it would be less than $100.00 like even $50.00. It looks like a good project taking much dollars to bring it to life.

2 pointsI would say the steel is stronger. I think what was going on was when building the differential, the aluminum end plates were easy to warp or crack. You have to be very careful not to force those when building. The #5060 in my video had an aluminum plate on one side and a steel end plate on the other. I assume the aluminum plate failed and was replaced with the steel one...not the other way around.
-
2 pointsYes... maybe... something? After welding it up, I’ll smooth it somehow. They will paint it, so it shouldn’t look welded when it’s finished.

2 pointsThat motor is a great motor i put this same motor on my daughter workhorse 800. it is wore out and needs rebuilt but she starts right up. we have beat the crap out of it. the only issue i ever had was the carb i ended up putting a kohler carb on it. i got tired of messing with the tech carb.
-
2 pointsit's a double pulley/belt for the starter. the 701 has many features that are specific only to that model.
-
2 pointsGood question. I considered getting a kit because that’s what I normally do, but figured a new carb was 15 bucks, so I though I’d give it a try. Then I’d clean up the old one and have it for the next tractor that comes along.
-
2 pointsI know a whole city of New Englanders that put Rs where they don't belong. My college marketing prof was from Boston and one poor girl in that class fought with her all semester over the proper pronunciation of her name. The professor couldn't say any word ending in A without changing it to an ER and this girl refused to respond to "Laner". She would ignore the professor until being addressed 3 or 4 times, then say "Well that is not my name, please say it correctly".

2 pointsWell do you know the difference between washing and warshing? You wash with water, but to warsh you need warter.
-
2 pointsWell you can sure put it back to the corect color. I will be waiting to see how this one turns out for sure!! Nice find and congrats!!
-
2 pointsIt’s the Milwaukee 6370-21 8” metal cutting saw. The -21 kit has a hard case, the -20 kit is case less. For the amount of time I’ll run it, I opted for the case. I would highly recommend it after 20’ of use!
