Recommended Posts

Snow blower contact area was fairly rusty , figured snow might stick to it since it was not smooth. Had this "shiny aluminum" paint in my stash so I figured what the.... I wired brushed the surface best I could and cleaned it to get paint to stick. Had 2 cans, so it is on there THICK!!! Once dried it is very slick and hopefully snow will not stick to it.

Also checked the lighting on the tractor to see if snow blower blocks some of the lite, well... it sure does, so on to installing lites out front on the blower its self. Couple lites , some wire , and wire loom, connectors,bla bla bla, and now I have out front lites. Checked it in the barn with all the lites out and ...oh ya that will work.

If you remember, Jaws was his character name in the Bond movies...

seemed a fitting tribute for the Maidens new blower upgrades. :text-coolphotos:

They look like twins. :)

In the picture it looks like there is "over spray" all over it, there is NOT. That is how shiny and smooth it is, very reflective. Hopefully snow will NOT stick to it!! Now if I could only get some SNOW!!!!

      Finally getting around to working on my ark loader.  The previous owner said he thinks the problem is with the spool valve.  
      As I've learned a bit more about hydraulics now, I'd like to get this all sorted out.  
      I noticed the power beyond port is connected to the reservoir return.  Is that right?  
      Anyone see anything blatantly incorrect?

      Looking for a complete hydro pump for a D-160. Tractor is missing everything from the rubber coupler disc back. Also willing to buy a complete tractor for parts, the closer to Harrisonburg VA the better. Thank you.

      I was looking around on ebay and noticed that hydraulic actuators from John Deere 312, 317, etc models appear to be Identical to a Gt14 or d series lift cylinder. My question is would a new cylinder from ebay be able to replace one that is on a gt14 or d series?
       
      Images below of cylinders to show similaritys.

      My friction disc in gone on my clutch.  I saw the old post about making a new friction disc, so I'm not concerned about that.
      I managed to remove the front clutch plate and double v-belt pulley.  But I can't separate the two.  When I took the assembly off the spiraloc washer popped off on its own.  I HAVE READ THE MANUALS.
      So I should be able to just remove the pulley from the front clutch and continue with step 4.  The v-belt pulley is loose as all hell and flops around like a dead fish.  It seems to be hung up on a ring or bearing race.  
      So my thoughts are grab a BFH or sparky the blue tip wrench.
      Is there an unpublished step 3.5, or some trick?

      Hey all, 
       
      My '74 D180 has a lot of trouble pushing snow.  Weighted tires, but nothing else at this time.  I've found it gets stuck frequently and only one wheel spins.  Do these tractors not have a limited slip/locker arrangement?  How does everyone manage with the infamous one wheel peel?
