never would have thought!

I went to look at a parts mower for a rider I'm fixing up to sell. Came home with these instead. The cart is not rusted through. A bent up rear lip and concrete on the inside in some places. Didn't think anything this old would have made it into Arkansas. Very happy!

Good deal.

You know, the tub cart I have seems to have concrete on it too. People must have thought these carts were mobile "mud boxes".

Thanks guys. I'm still stoked.

I looked closer at the plow last night and the adjustment screw stuff "may" be rusted together. I'll try the vinegar trick and if that doesn't work, I'll build an e-tank.

The bearings in the cart wheels are really noisy, so I'll be greasing them to see if they'll pull through.

I have the same garden plow.

I used PB Blaster to loosen the adjuster, unscrew it completely then used a wire brush to clean the threads.

Grease it up and reassemble.

 

If I have a problem in the future, I will disassemble, clean and add grease zerts to the turn-buckle.
