bitten 133 #6 Posted November 12, 2009 That is a nice looking machine. You did a nice job on it. With the list of tractors you have it must be hard to say witch one you like best. Kinda curios about the duel exhaust my self. Every time I look at it that is what catches my eye first. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greg Parnell 6 #9 Posted November 13, 2009 Great looking 753, I like the rib tires up front but you helped make another project for me. My son walked by as I was looking at your tractor and he thought the dual wheels were real cool, now he wants to make his 753 a dualie. Looks like he'll have a 753 dualie. What's the best / easiest way to mount dual wheels on a 753? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chazm 412 #10 Posted November 13, 2009 Nice 753 Hey Hammer can you take some more pics please I just started referb on my 753 and would like to see more detail on yours Chaz :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hammerhead 816 #11 Posted November 13, 2009 The muffler system I built for this tractor is pretty cool to me. It definetly makes you look at it and think. Alot of people at tractor shows can't figure out what is going on with it. They stare at it for a little bit, then ask what is different about it. I saw this set up on a Sears tractor many years ago. I always wanted to try it on a WH so this is the one I tried it on. It sounds pretty beefy also, kinda like a 2 cylinder engine. Just another way to trick out this machine. I wanted a stock looking pulling tractor and this is what I came up with. Keith Jones...Hammerhead_43074@yahoo.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tgranthamfd 28 #13 Posted November 13, 2009 I CAN see why this is one of your favorites. Very Very nice tractor. What did you do, mount an extra hub on your outside wheel center?? Did you buy or make your dual mounting wheel adapters? I would like to get some demision and make my own adapters for the 6-12 wheels / tires. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hammerhead 816 #22 Posted December 1, 2009 Yep, TT called that one pretty good! I wanted the 3 way peice to be similar to an T pattern instead of this set up. But it didn't fit under the hood! So I had to make it like this. Sometime after this pic was takin, I cut a slot in the 3 way peice and welded in a small peice of metal to deflect the flow over to the rear muffler, so it still sounds like a 2 cylinder engine! Thanks for everyone's comments on this beast. It rides so different than any of my other WH's. It is totally stable and feels heavy when thrashing on it. I used 1/2 inch All-Thread rods cut to fit on the dual rear wheels and added big brass washers behind the nuts. I also added 5 lug hubs on the tractor and another set of 5 lug hubs on the outer rims. I still have to sand blast the inner rear rims and paint them. But it's good enough for now, too many other Horse's to wrench on! KJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whfan74 2,015 #23 Posted December 1, 2009 That's a sweet looking machine! I can definitely see why it is one of your favorites! Cool mod to the muffler system. I am sure it has a real nice sound to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
n1defan 47 #24 Posted April 23, 2011 :thumbs: Nice looking tractor. I hope my 854 looks that good when I get it done. I just added the hydro to it and also got a set of stock headlights for it. I am going to put duals on it and maybe a front weight if I can find one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
