Perfect for mounting predator motors to C series tractors... exact height needed for the belt guard...

Set a camera up on the cat food what to see was eating it and got this ... Well the nice thing about trail cameras is this horse pic ... Moved the trail cam to the asparagus patch to see if deer were eating that ... It was what they call a bluebird day.

I use small bolts ,lock washers, and nuts....cause I have tons ofem.

May 7, 1998, the German automobile company Daimler-Benz—maker of the world-famous luxury car brand Mercedes-Benz—announces a $36 billion merger with the United States-based Chrysler Corporation. The purchase of Chrysler, America’s third-largest car company, by the Stuttgart-based Daimler-Benz marked the biggest acquisition by a foreign buyer of any U.S. company in history.

I agree... I mill off the heads of the rivets and drive the body of the rivets out. Replace the sealed bearing with a new one. Buff the halves on a wire wheel before assembly. I use #5-40 Button head screws - 1/4" or 5/15" long with a dab of blue Loctite on the threads and then the hexnut. This way, they are easily rebuildable later on instead of riveting. a light coat of Rusty metal Primer and a spritz of red - better than new...

Pretty darn nice.

Needs a good bit of attention elsewhere, to be expected being a '73 with no records and not much known about its history. Someone has been pumping grease into it but the fuel pump leaks, most of the wiring is original, I can't tell yet if the head has ever been pulled and doubt that the valves are in adjustment by the way it runs...stuff to do I'd like to pull the balance gears but I've got other priorities and no tasks in mind for this one. We'll see how things shake out, it might be worth a couple hours to go ahead and do that while I'm this far in.

Picked up a new (to me) WH hauler today! They sure are proud that it is made in MI!

I was considering not hauling my rather large toyhauler and get 8-10 mpg but what the hell we only live once. If it means having to sell a few parts to make up the extra few bucks in fuel so be it. I am probably going to haul it down a few days early and stay at a campground in Gettysburg area and do the battlefield tours.

Some work on new steel box for WH trailer (dump trailer). Undercarriage needed some work,but that is the base for new "dump box" , aside original platform for hauling wood (2 in 1). Materials: old 2 wheel wheelbarrow, old bed frame, scrap metal and some new metal pieces. Fit for wooden pallet 120x80 cm. My original modified patform for hauling wood, hay, grass,branches etc

@gt14rider regular reference to this bearing issue , personally always go for the WIDE RUBBER SIDE SHIELDS , thats what you want ? unknown grease in there , small flat pocket screwdriver or small flat putty knife , easy removed with no damage at all , pop off both sides , Walmart , lucas x-tra heavy duty green chassis grease , wipe out all original grease , carb cleaner aerosol , flushing , hand pack bearing , reinstall seals , lube is 550 deg flash point , also polyurea rated , so it stays with the issue , done this in every related , pto driven bearing , guess what ? NO WHYINING BEARING NOISE , or related failures , @Razorback , personally love repetitive failures , track it down and kill it , make a change . mule drive bearings also re lubed , no belt squealing , just easy smooth wind up , that pto lever start up area is a GOLD MINE , for operational delight , heim joint end swivel , pete

One could also use square bar tubing. My seats are mounted this way. I need extra distance backward.

https://www.uline.com/Product/Detail/H-4586G/Parking-and-Traffic-Signs/U-Channel-Post-for-Parking-Signs-10-ft-Green?pr , regularly make up improvements based on failure , this type of multi ton make up , often galvanised , bonis , is a great fill in or remake on original , picked up my first at town dump maintenance shop , just snoopin around , they also gave it to me , absolutely bomb proof . there are also related brackets at local , H/D LOWES , ETC . paint it red , black , it disappears . this only a suggestion / opportunity , for a project . pete

Comparing 1967 to 2026 USA average gasoline price and USA average income, both increased just over 13 times. It's all relative folks.

Just wondering if a piece of fuel line could be split and put around the opening?

Sad day... Had to put our lab Denali down today... the cancer caught up with him this afternoon. Labored to breath, seizures, etc. He was a great dog. RIP buddy...

Steve well said . Have to try to keep the torch going , and if guys back out because of fuel unfortunately there will eventually be no show . I will be heading down Wednesday morning despite the diesel fuel costs .

HOLY CRAP Mr. U Haul!!!!! I didn't think ya had the stones! He'd show up at plow days with a rented U haul ... claimed it was sensible... No place to store a trailer. Glad to see you got your big girl panties on guy!

gotta luv the Blackhoods

Thanks for the manuals. Pretty sure I got the recoil fixed🤞

Mike Prodzinski in Minnesota has been rebuilding these #1623 pulleys for several years. I had him redo several of mine. Years ago i bought a bucket of them at ghe Big Show - about 1:3 were still useable. Maybe he can give you some pointers on the rebuild!

May 6, 1991, 51-year-old race car driver Harry Gant racks up his 12th National Association of Stock Car Auto Racing (NASCAR) Winston Cup career victory in the Winston 500 in Talladega, Alabama. In doing so, Gant bettered his own record as the oldest man ever to win a NASCAR event. A native of Taylorsville, North Carolina, Gant quit the family carpentry business in 1978 and raced his first full Winston Cup season in 1979, at the relatively advanced age of 39. He was a candidate for Rookie of the Year, but lost to Dale Earnhardt. In 1981, Gant joined the Mach I/Skoal Bandit Racing Team and competed in the team’s No. 33 Pontiac, owned by the movie producer Hal Needham and actor Burt Reynolds.

I don't have a K341 to comment on, but on my Bronco's K321 (same crank), the increase in vibration was not nearly as bad as I feared it would be. It's definitely there, but knowing my engine is now safe from window making is easily worth it. I won't install another Kohler with the balance gears still in there. I like these old engines too much to take the chance.

Garbage in = garbage out was the computer norm. Add AI to the picture where it selects the more prominent information regardless of its validity and it becomes Garbage in = Gospel out. Special interests have always been able to make multiple internet entries promoting their point of view and thereby suppressing any alternate information, truthful or not. If you took the time and scrolled through enough PR garbage you could find what they were hiding. AI seems to doing the same but totally discounting alternative information. OK, now I will get back down off my soap box and get back to Wheel Horse talk.

So sorry to hear of your loss. It is extremely difficult losing a pet. You will be in our thoughts and prayers.

It's tough. I've lost 5 pets to cancer. It leaves a void.

Got your PM. I'll answer later today and see what I can do to help out.

Awwww.. what a beautiful dog and friend...... sorry for your loss.

Sorry to hear of your loss Jim.

Looks like she is eating for three.

Spec # is Series 2 Higher than 24300 Gray color indicates service motor

Sorry to hear this Jim. I know the pain is both emotional and physical. Be strong, your Red Square family is here to support you ❤️

I buy packs of 10 in the jungle. 3/8 and 5/16 always laying around here. Some other sizes too.

I'm 14 so you're not the only kid on here

I got that 123 15 yrs ago or more, mainly because it came with a tiller and a mower deck. Truth be told, as much as I LOVE the C160 overall, the 123 is my favorite tilling machine. Between the hydro and the tiller itself, it does the best tilling job. But the C160 is a VERY close 2nd. (I agree with your “green” sentiments.)

Harry Gant had several nicknames, Hammering Harry (he ran a construction company), Hard Luck Harry in the early part of his career due to ten second place finishes, Handsome Harry, and The Bandit in recognition of his sponsorship by Skoal. His best nickname was earned when he won two Busch Series races and all four Winston Cup races in September 1991 and earned the nickname "Mr. September" at the age of 51. His crew chief was Andy Petree and together they went on a winning streak of six straight national series triumphs. Other drivers with Hall of Fame credentials have amassed wins in fours since the dawn of NASCAR’s modern era in 1971, but other factors beyond his age make Gant’s performance a singular achievement. He won all four premier-series races with the same car — a Leo Jackson-owned No. 33 Oldsmobile Cutlass — and same engine at all four tracks. “We’ll probably run it until we wreck it,” Gant said back then. The car was involved in two crashes during the four-race romp, but never lost its winning edge.

I attempted to watch the entire video, however I was unable and turned it off after several minutes and many, many inaccuracies. AI has its appropriate place in today's world but not in every application. I remember being told the best working analytic system is the human brain, let's not lose that ability.

I have a couple here in use from @76c12091520h Brian Badman. Excellent hitches. I highly recommend them.

Is the spec number on that KT-17 24336?? It is a series 2 service engine that WH ordered I guess to replace the failed series 1 in a lot of C-175...

Even some of the Youtubers who seem to be attempting to produce factual, helpful videos seem to screw it up by not attending to detail. AI seems to be inproving slowly but the AI offerings for my needs a few days ago were poor at best. As an example I bought a couple of new remotes for our garage door opener. The instructions for the opener had been lost long ago and the ones that came with the remotes were not working out for us. I watched a video from Chamberlin, the door opener manufacturer and four Youtube videos before I found one that actually succeeded in programing the remotes.

That statement is a strong contender for the "DUH" of the year competition.

Tons and tons of "Youtubers" are creating this fake content. A few days ago I was looking through some small block chevy stuff on there, and WOW! I feel bad for the fellas who don't know much on them and go to youtube to try to get a straight answer, you can't!

Scary thought: history is recorded by the victor...

I went this route. Kawasaki fuel pump. Homemade mounting plate.

More pictures of the wheelhorse

At this point I’m looking for any excuse to get seat time lol. Doesn’t matter how small a task I’m busting out one if not both tractors.

No... but a U-Haul, now that's a bit more common...

I have power. Converting over to 10-30 so need to drain the lift cylinder and have a list of other things to address but this was a big line item
