Is this a Rj 35 Wheelhorse???

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I bought this wheelhorse today for $250.

It has a Newton 3.5 4cyl that I hate.

It took me a while to get it started but then figured that you have to put the throttle lever(which is a foot pedal on mine) up then it fired.

I had it Idealing for awhile then It went up in revs then shut off. Could this be because it flooded with gas from all the pulls?

Wouls like ti find the original engine for it and steering wheel. Does anybody have one or know of one.

It's kinda tough to ID a tractor going by the info you gave. The only info is that it has the wrong motor and you need a steering wheel. Charliesd250 has repro steering wheels for the older Pond RJs.

The belt guard would be a solid piece that doesen't have a grate on it. How does the foot throttle work?

Like stated above its either a RJ58 or RJ59... Most likely a RJ58. On the top of the trans near the shifter there may be some casted numbers, post them up if they are there.

BTW, a 1957 RJ35 would have "Wheel Horse" stamped into the hood.

Jake,

When you push the foot throttle you go forward and let go and you stop.

Would you sell me your rj 35 and reel mower? Would pay cash.

Anthony, RJ35s do come up for sale from time to time. You have to search everday via all mediums.... Craigslist, ebay, tag sales....... As for motors if you want a Clinton get in contact with Charlie Pitcher (charlied250) here on RS or get in contact with Joe Papke. Joe would have the proper Kohler or even Clinton.
