@AMC RULES that honda set up looks awesome !  think its the way to go , for a repower , solid performance, did a total clear vinyl fuel rated hose change out today ,  on a 91 ,c12 . hose was getting hard , ran it thru a spiral wrap , wire protector , with hanger mounts , for a no chafing fit.  have an ignition switch wire harness coming in , to cover erratic charging. found a split and somewhat fried connector . just staying after what ever , that honda looks like it was made or it , pete

@TonyToro bought a new c-85 in 82 , came with that 36" R/D deck ,8 hp kohler , still have them both , coming on 40 years , deck is still solid no rot and regularly maintained , put a 12 horse magnum in it a few years back , my other decks are 42" RD . could not tell you how many miles of grass that 36 cut , but R/D decks are my favorite , grass always looks good , pete

It looks like it's shocked at something in front of it. Did you take that pic while sitting on a C160 or something? :D

I didn’t know they made Work Horses without lugs on the rear wheels…

One of the neighbor boys who is interested in mechanical things came over yesterday.  We tinkered with the new haul, the 520-8, GT1642 and 310-8.  The 520 will surely need the carb rebuilt, but we heard it spitter at least, the GT1642 ran pretty smoky but cleaned up, and the 310-8 purrs.  I don’t think he figured he’d get the chance to drive one.  At first, he asked if I had any project quads I’d sell him.  After 15 minutes on the 310, he decided he no longer needs a quad!

Nice bus! I just bought one, mine is a lot older though. It's got air brakes/suspension and a DT466 with a 6 speed Eaton

RV conversion. She's got some miles but that DT engine is a real runner and she shifts great. We almost have all the seats ripped out. Should be a great over winter project.

Maybe depending on Snow one Day more... 😂

 

Cool project.

If you plan right, you can use it also as a Toy hauler... 😎

@balconio nice!  This is an ‘09 6.7 Cummins/Allison combo.  Has air bags on the rear springs and 134k on the ticker.  :handgestures-thumbupright:

It’s not the size of the deck that matters… it’s how the :wh: moves those spindles that counts…

Same here. I have a dedicated "lawnmower" (Scag) for mowing. My Wheel Horses do the other work, and back up the zero turn as needed. No sense wearing them out with a mower. I want them to last at least as long as I do...
