As always, Red Square crew comes through. I now have hitches lined up for the 2 tractors that need them. Thanks @davidtmercer and @ebinmaine!

The center pin presses out. I just did one on my 551. @76c12091520h K & B horse parts sells new Heavy duty pullies that are excellent!

What kind of thread pattern are you looking for? That does seem a little high but not for some styles like Firestone 23 ags. Tire prices have skyrocketed in recent years. I don't think I've ever saw or shopped for them in the 9.50 flavor but here's a set. Mainly 8.5 and 10.5. are most common which you should be able to easily run. https://www.millertire.com/23x9-50-12-rubber-master-turf-4-ply-tire/ Hers a set of Dees in 8.5 ags affordable & free ship. Probably not much more in 10.5 https://www.ebay.com/itm/353061325940?_skw=23+8.50+12+tire&epid=9073595196&itmmeta=01K5J87Y1AXD0KF3Q0P8FVVB4K&hash=item5234184c74:g:UpwAAeSw0o5n6opR&itmprp=enc%3AAQAKAAAA8FkggFvd1GGDu0w3yXCmi1d11yFgEzj4aj%2Blqc0ua%2Bjo4wxH%2FcDHuLeHYfDTvJ%2BewObf40j8b9P%2BBHvd94betbqiJxSJpZ%2FaZU3yHSk6Y%2B9%2F58ydz4YPWMOWdweFdE%2BpQz6snT5HlCLlUP4Cn8uglQWe56O8kZRP4eGmiZNaQ4NRKWj1%2F6%2Fyx6W7h%2BvkbL9LYjt7bA2pBQOS0afqUsSXyZzsj9bUTi0tOETirNPwZ8RzSQXOBXF%2F6SdqGrbHhMv%2BtQZlkig5Tf20QMx0BKZUHBJDT67kOmhENnga4bKBZaYaKrngHXHIKh61rLphlPzVug%3D%3D|tkp%3ABFBMuOGfyKxm

you don't say where you are, or what is reasonable ? 1 hr, 2 ,3, 4 etc - One persons reasonable is someone else's unreasonable!

Thanks, Gary. Are you interested in a copy of the 1974 parts manual for the 42" and 48" side-discharge mower decks? (5-1011-42" 5-1211-48")? I would gladly scan and forward them if they would be helpful.

It is hard to see, but it's there.

No problem. I'm in the UK, so anyway it's difficult to get Wheel Horse parts, so I'm always looking in the USA. If they don't complete let me know. Thanks

I did not find one but I did find a way to modify my disk to work with the sleeve hitch

WHAT A DEAL !!!!!

@Chrishar I've ground the rivets out with a Dremel. The bearing is available from a NAPA. I've reassembled them with small socket head bolts. Also, @WHX?? has a setup to replace the bearing and reassemble them with rivets for a complete factory look. I had him do a couple for me.

Thank you @davidtmercer for hooking me up with a nice differential and hubs!

Yes, the axle tolerance is about .005 under for these tapers. I had an axle that was almost ten under and the hub would slide around. I did get those hubs to work. I blocked the back of the hub with a piece of bar steel, taped (not hammered) the taper in, re torque the bolts, and repeated several times until the taper flange was almost up-against the hub. Has been holding on the xi machine with fluid filled tires over a year now. after before giving it an extra bump.

Based on my records, the 418-a is a 1987 model. The owners manual specifies 9.50 wide. I have purchased tractor tires from Miller Tire and was very satisfied.

The axles on my 1976 C-120 Auto are shot. Unless you come across an easier solution, you're going to have to open the case and pull the axles. If it was me and the keyway is the only issue, I would have new keyways cut 180* from the originals. I've done that before and just used straight 1/4" keys. Just don't cut them at 90* or you might lose where you need to have the second set screw.

As strange as it may seem, you could consider buying an entire, possibly non-running, tractor to get one. Note here the models that had 5060 or 5071.

Okie dokie. I'll take a look when I get home. I have a 1976/7 B80 chassis. Not at all sure what it has for a steering wheel.

Thanks Eric but I'd really prefer one like (or close to) either of the two I pictured. One is the original on my 76 and the other is unknown that I replaced the original on the 2005. I just edited the posting to remove the Toro wheel. I've pretty much decided to get rid of that tractor so there's no need to swap the wheel.

I'll take a poke around the workshop later today. Any interest in the smooth plastic type from the early '80s?

Have you checked here: https://wheelhorsepartsandmore.com/?s=Hose&post_type=product&dgwt_wcas=1

The plastic trays were all the same, he needs to say if it is the plastic or the steel part under it. The plastic parts break easily so check yours before saying you have one.

About 5 hours from you or I will be coming to Meyersdale, Pa. sometime in December. $400 delivered to Meyersdale.

We could use that file. Thanks for the offer.

I'll get them shipped tomorrow and shoot you a pm with the info.

You just want the metal pan or a complete seal ?

WHAT!! No offers for this Great Setup????
