    I am very saddened to report that my brother Wade David Ralph passed away on Wednesday due to complications from COPD. He was an Army veteran serving in the Army Corps of Engineers as a mechanic, truck driver and operated heavy bulldozers during the Hurst Fires near Fort Ord, California in the 1970’s. He was a very good carpenter, building homes and remodeling in Alabama and other locations and often assisted my father Clifton Ralph in his blacksmith shop. David was also a great Wheel Horse garden tractor fan ! We traveled to many different tractor shows and bought many Wheel Horse tractors across the USA and one in Canada! His COPD prevented him from traveling to shows with me the last 7 years as he was 24/7 on concentrated oxygen. FYI WADE DAVID RALPH 10/08/1953-07/29/2026 Visitation Saturday August 8th 10:30a-12:30p Kuiper Funeral Home 9039 Kleinman Road Highland, IN Internment 1:00p Chapel Lawn Memorial Gardens 8178 S Cline Avenue Crown Point, IN

    A 22º slope of grass? No tire that I know of will eliminate potentially dangerous slippage--there just isn’t going to be enough friction regardless of weight. I’d say your options are chains on turfs or a tracked vehicle.

    I have a chance to pick this tractor up locally for $200. Deal or No Deal? Sounds like it belonged to the seller's grandfather - so details are patchy. Based on her recollection of her grandfather's statement and the fact that the fan guard is off - I'm guessing the flywheel will need to come off.

    I watched a documentary on the Gemini and Apollo flights. That took guts. Setting sail in those ships took guts. I'm about half scared to navigate from bedroom to the bathroom in the middle of the nights without lights on.

    If it still has the K341 you should save it. 74 or 75 hydro with a hydrolic lift. Only made C-160s from 1974 to 1977. Simple electric system, easy to get to mid hitch set up. " They Don't Get Any Better "

    Happy Birthday Kevin... Keep your cutting tools razor sharp (they hurt a lot less than dull ones) .

    Put the mid mount grader that I got from @Pullstart on it this evening, I need to get a longer lift link though as it doesn't go all they way to the floor.

    @Sparky I would not put those 23x10.50-12 ag tires back on your 520. You have a nice lawn and I’d hate to see you mess it up. Instead of you having to worry about storing those rims and tires I’d be more than happy to come and get them. This way it will help you with storage space. I’m just trying to help you out here Mike!😂 Work with me 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    Changed hydraulic oil filter on the C161 that seems to have been neglected on anything maintenance related... Found out it was quite past due

    Spent the last few days making my tractor more Wisconsin. Now I need to get it some cheese curds. I put the wheelweights I bought from @WHX?? at the show on and went through the RM-425 deck I got from @Achto and put it on too. This deck was the nicest deck I've ever gone though so far. None of the bearings were seized and all of the grease looked good but I still cleaned it up and put some fresh Lucas green in it. The nla double-d blades looked like they had either never been sharpened or sharpened very little.

    Here we go again Mike, this is why you should let me come get those 23x10.50-12’s that you should never use 🤣🤣🤣

    The cylinder head alone is worth $100. The whole K341 up here NOT running is a $300 piece.

    k341 if it aint locked up is worth asking price especially around these parts... steering wheel appears to bo in good shape also..

    New candidate for worst seat. Definitely needs a bath. Simple electrical system. Should be an easy fix.

    Thank you - I'm a body and paint guy, not a mechanic - so I'm educating myself as I go. If that's the case, could it also be a mis-diagnosed rectifier and low voltage? I guess getting my hands on it and some time with the multimeter may tell the story.

    Brain fart on my part. I was thinking magneto rather than battery ignition. A second cup of coffee is starting to clear the fog.

    It's worth the parts price alone. I don't know what the flywheel would have to do with spark unless the engine has been swapped.

    It’s good to have friends in this hobby Don! Actually the reason I had to remove the ag’s was because the wheels on the 42” deck wouldn’t clear.

    @Darrenw85 We are going to need more, several more pictures of that beautiful 867 that you restored. Outstanding job 👍🏻

    Today, I mowed the Fire Station and my lawn with the 312. I also heated up and circulated all the oil in the C-141. The local church was painting the inside of the station so I have to go back for some touch up probably tomorrow or Tuesday. The trucks and some stuff were out so it limited where I could mow, I got most of it though.

    It's so satisfying to be able to start and drive a project that you put together and have nothing go wrong

    Today I finally made a hold down for the battery. It’s a little overkill as I used 3/8 threaded rod and thicker steel for the bracket side, but it’ll do the job. Battery doesn’t bounce around anymore.

    Tire/wheel swaps on the 520 today…B-80 used to haul it all away.

    Ol snowball was back but “Opie” was putting the hurt on him by the time I got off lawnmower. I pulled him off and hope he/she will be alright. He/she did make it back to shed where Opie couldn’t get to him. I was trying to get dog off of it and dog was swinging snake around and wrapped it around my leg bout lost my religion on that one.
