My original modified patform for hauling wood, hay, grass,branches etc A couple of vertical pieces on each side would strengthen the frame considerably since both top and bottom would work in tandem. Many store bought utility trailers use this idea. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 57,216 #25904 Posted May 5 (edited) Not mine but a customer's. Sharpen blades & change oil & check over kind of thing. Repair a busted coil bracket. Real nice '82 C-105 all original. So nice his one may not leave the ranch. The mafia may have to make an offer he can't refuse... First step was a bath. Edited May 6 by WHX?? 6 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thegearhead0324 1,623 #25911 Posted May 6 I didn’t physically do anything to the tractor today, but today I did order a trailer hitch from wheelhorsepartsandmore. I kept seeing nothing but very good things and reviews on here and few others so I bit the bullet and ordered one. I look forward to getting it and bolting it up . 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CasaytheMann 169 #25912 Posted May 6 (edited) Every time my youngest daughter (30 y.o.) is in town she pulls out some overalls and asks what we're working on today? She especially loves working on my '01 Jeep Grand Cherokee, or the '85 SB I recently sold. Edited May 6 by CasaytheMann 3 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sodaking27 1,263 #25914 Posted May 6 Lots of progress over the last couple days. Got the replacement motor installed in the C175. Runs like a top. Replaced the leaking axle seal on the GT1800 and finally installed its new shoes that I’ve had settling for 2 years. 6 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is a series 2 service engine that WH ordered I guess to replace the failed series 1 in a lot of C-175... 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oliver2-44 11,593 #25918 Posted May 6 Polished some transmission shifter balls. No before pictures, but these were really rough and faded gray. Sanded them in drill press 180, 320, 600, 1000, 1500, 2000. Polished them on a buffing wheel with white rouge. I have the drill turn the opposite of the buffing wheel. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Point being she has an eye for detail and a steady hand to go along with it. Maybe she'll learn to paint and help me a little. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now that I have mine coming along I'm really liking the lines and look of it. And I've begun to appreciate others that I dismissed before. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
