Try https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/huskee-v-belt-1-2-in-x-70-in-oc-4461101 I run this brand on all my tractors. The tractor that I pull a moldboard plow with, has over 150hrs with the same belt driving it. My pulling tractor just finished its 3rd season running the same belt. Should be available at a local TSC.

September 25, 1965, the Kansas City Athletics start ageless wonder Satchel Paige in a game against the Boston Red Sox. The 59-year-old Paige, a ***** League legend, proved his greatness once again by giving up only one hit in his three innings of play.

New tires and wide rims for the 314H. Waiting on the weather to cooperate so I can paint the rims. Plan on using the 314H as my plow tractor this year.

Oops, too late, some assembly required!

I know it’s Friday and I’m a day late but here’s a few pictures.

I have been homebound with the flu for a few days and decided to take on a project that has been on my mind for some time. We are blessed to have a chart of drive belt sizes for all models of Wheel Horses, but the way it is laid out it can be a bit cumbersome to deal with and I have reconfigured the information in a manner I hope will be easier to use. I haven’t included all models and I apologize in advance for any mistakes or omissions I may have made. I have also included a few other tidbits. Tractor drive belts Drive belts should be fabric covered 58 – 59 RJ 1567 4L - 29 60 – 61 SUBURBAN 1569 4L -29 1961 and later Horizontal crankshaft Wheel Horses can be divided into four categories, Short Framer, Mid Frame, Long Frame, and Estate Tractors.

I have seen belts sold on the internet using the TORO/Wheel Horse part numbers that won’t work because they are too wide and I have used the Tractor Supply replacement belts with good results. Use your own judgement.

If you decide to replace, please don’t discard the original--someone here would likely take it to attempt a refurb.

This mountain man represents that. I also warsh my truck and change the oral.

That will function for a short time but you won't get good life out of them. I've tried them. CALL Lincoln at A to Z Tractor and get a good belt. Or someone else may be able to give a good brand's number for local purchase.

I’ll be reinstalling the original k301 when I take the tractor apart for painting next month

My Mom and Dad had a ski club called "The Ski-Boes" when they were younger. Custom beer mugs, patches etc. Lifelong friends ... Those mugs form the base of the shelves. All others represent fundamental elements of family life in artistic, not hierarchical form. BTW - I just grilled the first steak from my two early does... tell your friend that venison is indeed proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy!

Chilly but a great day with the sons. VID_20260924_143331943~2.mp4

VID_20260924_102901382~2.mp4 No luck trolling for stripers. We ran 20 crab traps for two hours and had our 72 crab limit so we packed it in and headed home. VID_20260924_092253848~2.mp4

Clean the joint with the big washer top and bottom with parts cleaner and keep it dry. Put some grease in the long slot. Remove the console cover, clean the fins and everything under there, then oil every moving joint you can find, I like motorcycle chain lube.

Cleaned off the underside of my 42”RD. Found the right side attach-a-matic bracket super loose where it bolts to the frame. Never had a loose one before…I’ll be checking more often I guess.

Yep, that's one of them Cube-bota's...

Funniest one I ever saw was on a van being towed," TOAD CAR."

You can cut to length then get you self a Z bender I believe that is what they call it. It crimps to original shape. I have had mine for years works well.

I remade a chipboard/melamine shelf into a narrower shelf to fit between the Murphy bed and wall at the lake house. This will be the 3rd or 4th life for that shelving unit.

Maybe you should take up crabbing ... heard tell strippers are involved ...

Sylvia. I’m trying to make sense of the shelving. Are deer between heaven and earth? And Wheel Horse is in heaven? Asking for a friend…

True, but quantum theory says that this would be statistically possible - the probability of it happening make the probability of winning the Powerball seem actually encouraging.

Set screw theme. I have one hub on Big Oly that likes to walk so new screws. Have to take one pie weight off to do it. At the same time I changed the oil to Rotella 15/40 and installed the snows. Winter's coming!

That's coming together nicely! Thinking is about 75% of the work, and time.. I'm sure lot's of staring at metal bits has happened before you came to this point. Greetings from the Netherlands, Mark

Never had a problem with these belts, but be sure belt matches sleeve it comes. IDK if someone was trying to match a belt they had or what but found 4 that were in wrong sleeve last time I purchased one, of course the first one wasn't noticed until I got all way back to shop. ....

The cable should be going to the governor and the governor adjusted for operating RPMs.

Give this regulator a try. https://www.amazon.com/Parts-Player-12V-Regulator-1959-1966/dp/B07Z9LQJDG/ref=sr_1_25

Well if you want to use the Koran.. Quran... Corean.... The Muslims' Book, there are 7 heavens. I count 6 levels in that display, including the WH on the top, so one could surmise something is out of frame. Wrong kind of crabs.

Many of the Woodruff keys are in this file description using the original number. Click on the fuzzy part of this link to see them.

The regulators rarely actually go bad or break, unless they were hooked up wrong, or were exposed to an electrical fault. These are old designs, from the days when things were meant to be worked on. They can be cleaned and adjusted and brought back to life as they wear. If you remove the top cover and hold the unit right-side up with the three posts facing you the set of contacts responsible for charging will be to your right. Cleaning them with some fine sand paper and making sure all the other connections are good an clean, and the wires are in good shape, is likely all that is needed. There is a website where high-quality regulators can be purchased still. Of course I can never remember what it is. @ebinmaine Eric, is it you that always has to remind me of that site?

I don't see a backing plate wit a magneto mounted to it.

This thre3ad can probably be helpful.

Today after work I started on figuring out how to retrofit and spruce up the 520H Hydraulic lift to my C-141 Auto. I've got the beginnings of a plan to build a bracket for the valve block. Once i take the seat off, and the rear sheet metal. I'll figure out if I need custom hard lines to the pump or can adapt the existing lines as they look in good condition. It looks close but I'll know for sure once I can see the pump better and run the lines. I'm off the next two days so I'll pick away at it.

Remarkably, Mrs Sylvan approved of this display proposal: I am a very lucky man...

I’ve used both types, and for what you’re describing I’d probably go with the single-stage long chute. A two-stage is great when you’re moving a lot of deep snow, but they’re big and heavy for a garden tractor. The slush is the part I’d watch. A decent single-stage will handle normal snow just fine, but wet heavy stuff can plug you up if you’re going too fast. With a narrow, long driveway where you need to throw the snow into the yard, the long chute seems like a pretty good fit. I’d probably put it on the C160 just because it has a little more tractor behind it.

Happy Happy Wild Horses

Sure hope my neighbor verified insurance when he hired these two pros to trim his hedge.

I had them out so I figured I'd contribute.
