hey grab it and run with it, parts pieces all good 

be cool if someone could throw a set of rings in her! 

 @wallfish not sure how bad we would want to try this… I saw a video on a farmer who left his tractors out in the field all year long, and every spring after a hard winter the rings were all froze up.  He would boil brake fluid and pour it into the cylinders.  5 minutes or so would pass and he would hear the rings releasing. Do we want to do any mad scientist chemistry demonstration?

The rings was just a wild thought, but it can use a set of matching rear tires. The current ones hold air but one is a 9.50 the other is a 8.50. It needs a PTO clutch, pulley and hoop. Maybe some shine juice?? 

 

John might want to start a separate thread to keep track of this thing?

Hair dye bottles are better. Or those squeezey ketchup ones that cheap diners or school cafeterias sometimes have.

We've found that pop bottles with gear oil caps kinda work

Guys wrenching on tractors at the Big Show have been known to mistake their bottle of water for one with gasoline in it!

One more reason why I don't like bottled water.

If you see something you need, let me know.  There’s lots to look at in here.    There are quite a few NOS belts, Toro Wheel Horse branded replacement parts, hardware, decals, sales literature, manuals, electrical, and more!

Hi, will be at show Thursday evening and Friday. Working on a new addition, 418-8.  I need a few parts but right off the top, looking for some front spindles and tie rods.  Brian M.

I am considering selling the following: an HD-42 blade for a Suburban 400/550, 401 or 551, the bracket used to attach an HD-42 blade to an RJ, a 701 hood, a cultivator frame for the cultivator used on the RJ-35 or Walk-Aways with the long hitch bar, and a complete WT-30 tiller complete with the speed reduction assembly.  Will be posting this weekend with photos of what I decide to see/bring to the show.
