15 pointsI was contacted by someone who i had sold a tractor to in the past. He said he had a 701 he wanted to get rid of and I was the first person he thought of! Only cost me a B1 Allis Chalmers! (He's an allis guy). He had two decks for it and i bought a plow too. Got home late so I didn't mess with it, ill save that for later this week. Its been sitting and gonna need the carb gone through, but it did start on carb cleaner.

4 pointsProud papa here. My daughter defended her dissertation two weeks ago and earned her doctorate in higher education. No she will not become a professor in all likelihood.. She is employed by the university and does research projects as directed by them. She loves her job and is getting good feedback and appreciation from her group. She is living in Ann Arbor so we see her when we can. As always Go Blue!!

4 pointsTonight the boy and I went over to his girlfriend's house. Their tiller needs some work, so I picked that up to bring home, said boy is going to be doing the work. It's just a simple fuel line replacement, may need to clean the carb, don't know yet, and I'll have him go over all the grease zerks. Her (the GF) mom also asked me to sharpen the blades on their JD, that was bought used at the end of last season, because it's been cutting like crap. I jacked it up and found three new blades that were installed upside down, so the blunt end was doing the cutting. Flipped them over and that was that.

4 pointsSame here. burning the candle at both ends. I went to the oral defense of the dissertation. Brutal questions. She was a little shook at first but finished strong.She had some huge stress in her personal life and we were holding our breath . Friday is our Golden anniversary and have to attend a funeral. So its always something. The secret of a long marriage is finding a lady who will put up with your faults....and a barn full of Wheel Horses

1 pointI have a quadrant out in the shop. Can't remember if it's a 5 or a 3. I'll let you know.

1 pointThe belly and optional rear hitch bolts right up. The front hitch can be more work but is absolutely easily added without modifying the tractor itself.

1 pointIt came on Charger Electro and Raiders it will fit I believe on any long frame.It was the first front mount mule drive but only for a short period before they got the front tachmatic. Lots of steel involved. Really best for some one who wants a period correct unit for a restoration.

1 pointHere's what I'm talking about on the pivot bracket almost hitting the hydraulic hose. I wonder if the pivot bracket is on upside down or backwards?

1 pointWhile we were a W/H dealer in the 80s-90s, we worked on everything and sold used tractors. Before that we sold Jacobsen's and those were good too, I often wonder why they didn't make it! We also sold everything Ariens. Used IH Cub Cadets were prized and very good tractors, one of the only things I think were poor about them was their steering, many of the ones we had, had very sloppy steering, was much better in that way!

1 pointThat"s a huge accomplishment and a Gorrila off her back. My wife was at the 6 year mark when she defended her Dissertation. (Stressful times with 3 kids in the house) 7 years is the limit from starting Doctorial course work. My wife went the Teaching - Professor route instead of the Research route. .

1 pointThe more modern Tachmatic on the C series is a better setup and opens door for more attachments.

1 pointloaded tires and chains with the LSD is the ultimate in traction in my opinion. Far as being tough probably can't beat the 8-pinion open diff. though. Mine works pretty well but my quit tomorrow
-
1 pointI have the 6 speed in my 854 so I have the limited slip in it and I'm not too hard on it so I'm not worried about it breaking yet, I mainly just drive around, mow, tow trailers, occasional dirt plowing and discing, and then the limited slip and 8 horse engine was a beast for plowing snow last winter, I rarely spun, and I usually ran out of traction before running out of engine.
-
1 pointI’ll chip in that the difference between 10 and 12 horsepower matters only if your use case regularly needs maximum power. Also, don’t overvalue the Limited Slip Differential. Its performance is almost indiscernible from an 8-pinion open diff in most regular usage.
-
1 pointI thought they had the limited slip until 73 when they went to the no names
-
1 pointThat's only true from 1968 through 1969. 1970, 1971 and 72 they had an 8-speed. 1970 and 71 should have limited slip differential. 1972 might not. It seems like semantics and minutia but they are different and it should be acknowledged for the sake of clarity and the possibilities of ordering parts in the future.

1 pointA C-100 is an 8 speed with a 10 horse power motor. It has an 8 pinion open differential in it and the attach a matic style hitch and mule drive. A Raider 12 is a 6 speed with a 10 pinion limited slip differential if original. It has a 12 horse power motor and the earlier style mule drive and mid hitch. As far as better than one or the other, that all depends on what you are doing. Essentially the 8 speed and 6 speed are the same transmission,, just different names and differentials. They both still has 6 forward speeds and 2 reverse speeds. Edit: If the C-100 is an automatic which I was not thinking about until @ebinmaine posted about it, it would have a hydrostatic transmission instead of the 8 speed

1 pointOiling of the rod bearings is the big problem with the Series One K-Twins. A spray of oil is directed toward the connecting rod from the cam shaft bearings, if you are going up or down a hill gravity will direct the oil away from the rod.
-
1 pointThe older Cub Cadets are pretty good but Wheel Horses are definitely better and easier to work on.

1 pointI am fan of the blackhoods ---------- I have two of the C175h models - a S1 and what was a S2 but now the S2 KT 17 has been replaced with a Briggs from an 1800 ( thanks to Bill D ) -------- the C175H with the S1 is my year round worker - snow and yard - I know the Kohlers better than the Onans so the K's are my preference

1 pointSpent the last few days cleaning up my tree line along the property. Wheel horse is definitely a big helper. Loaded up the trailer about 12 times to drive it all down the the big pile. Going to be getting a chipper here in a few days to make it all go away. Coming along nicely, I can finally walk into my tree line.

1 pointI will be at Portland on Wednesday with a bunch of Wheel Horse/Toro items for sale! I will be flying my Wheel Horse Flag at my spot!

1 pointOk walllored this pump all over the place and settled on behind the motor on the frame. Had to make a little adapter plate to get mounted in right direction. I belive there would be enough room under the motion control in tunnel but would require more work than I wanted to do at this time but may revisit if I ever tare down to restore. Could have probably squeezed it in behind rock shaft also but again to much work . Got everything hooked up and got my power from hot side of coil, which if Im not mistaken will allow safety switch’s to kill fuel pump also when triggered. Also used a 10amp inline ATO fuse as soon as I came off coil. The riginal pump was healthy and would squirt your face full of fuel but it would turn over 4 ever before starting if it set for a week or so. She doesn’t turn over but once or twice now before firing . Oh yeah I installed a one way fuel valve right as line comes out of tank also. Thanks for everyone’s pics and comments and maybe this thread might help others down the road.

1 pointI substituted the NLA Onan pump for this Kawasaki pump. Mounting bracket is from a Kawasaki. If you go the electric pump route, connect the positive wire to the positive terminal on the coil. If the safeties are activated the pump will shut down along with the engine.

0 pointsI found another one of those anti intelligence videos but this ones about Cub Cadet
