I too am having problems with an 864/sms-42-a. Missing the travvel mount mentioned above and rod-lift part # 3495. My bigger problem is finding where the rod-lift fits into assembly frame (weld) # 1954. Thanks for any advice you may have, I just can't figure it out.

there should be a 3/8" hole on the back side of the welded frame where the pulleys mount for the belt to the gear box for the lift hook remove the 4 small bolts and front cover to put a cotter pin in the lift rod

I have a extra travel hook and mount for $40.00 plus shipping if you need one

Serial # A-19750 on the mower, if that helps. There's NOT a hole in the assembly frame that I can find. Thanks

Unless it's one that's used for something else, I don't believe it's there. If I can get the thing out of the dirt I'll be interested in that travel mount. I really appreciate your time. And I have no idea where that line through my previous post came from.

That makes me feel better, I think. Can you give me a rough guess as to where to drill a hole to get it in the approximate area? I want to put this thing to work, but it's a go no further as it stands now. Need one tooth (section) that I was planning on having made by a fabricator friend of mine, 2 new belts, Wobble box seems tight, the assy frame needs a little tweaking as the pull up to travel position bar is sloppy. The tractor itself is as good as I could ask, after a week of work. I'm done worrying about it for today. Have a great week.

I just realized that I called my tractor an 864, when we all know it's an 854, made in 1964. I apologize for that egregious error. Now I'm going to bed.

I'm now convinced mine is a sms-42, without the lift rod. My plan is to alter it into a 42-A. Brian, I discovered your 854/sickle project earlier, fantastic job, and the pictures really help. I have the mower disassembled to a point that I can work with it. Al.

      These belts have been hanging in my garage since last used I believe there off a 754 I used to have. Bought them new and didn't use much.
      Don't know why I took them off. Some fraying on top in a few places from use, also don't know why but selling as is and photo'd. 20.00 shipped if you can use them.
      PM for PayPal info or questions. 16" ID approx.

      Okay friends husband and I brought home another mutilated mutation that I felt sorry for and wanted to fix….  Questions will it run??  Lol… what model for sure?  So I believe it’s an 854 and would like feed back to confirm..  lots of stuff coming off… has the k181s tag on the engine!  Two piece gas tank!  So if my friends on here would agree or disagree I would be able to see how much I have been learning over the years!

      Hello y'all,
       
      I hope everyone is staying safe and staying healthy. If not, i pray that you or whoever is afflicted be healed soon. 
       
      I hope to learn a lot from the forums and hopefully can use some of you young whipper snappers for your brains (ideas, how to's and such). Lol. Btw i am only 30, much respect for the older generation(s)!
       
      For me, well... If i would have found this 5-6 years ago, i would have said I am new to Wheel Horse. That is about the time my dad bought the 312-8 (that i now own). That purchase and talking to my dad about implements/attachments that i could purchase is what got me so interested in wheel horse. 
       
      Like i mentioned, i started with a 312-8. When i purchased from my dad, it came with a mower pan and a snowblower (wrong model tho). Wisconsin winters were brutal and a regular snowblower was taking me 2+ hours to clear the driveway. Thats when i bought my B-100, included in that deal was a mower pan and a plow. Boy... that B-100 has plowed a lot of snow. I love it. 
       
      I had also bought 2 lack luster tillers at some auctions. Well, that made me look for a tiller attachment. Found one relatively close and went to go look. $200 later, i had a tiller loaded into my truck and i had asked if he had the tillers mount for the rear axle. He said he wasnt sure, but he has a wheel horse sitting in the back. Told me to go look. 
       
      I look over this 854, and there is no rear mount. Just as im getting up, he asks if i want the tractor. I said i only got the $200 i gave you. He said free of charge. And thats how i gained my 854. (854s hood is in my shop)
       
      I want to start restoring my wheel horses, pretty paint, new decals, clean them up. I am proud of what i own. 
       
      And now im looking at getting a D200 with FEL and a backhoe. Its a sketch time to buy but i could use the tractor for house and cabin work. 
       
      Pics are attached. Please ignore the messes. They aint the prettiest tractors, but they all run.
