C100guy94 116 #26557 Posted Sunday at 11:47 PM (edited) Now that makes sense. Super clean for a parts rig Edited Sunday at 11:47 PM by C100guy94 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Full threaded bolts installed from the backside, with lock washers and loctite. Have done that on most of my tractors. I will at minimum put in one or two bolts that way. Makes hanging a tire/rim a lot easier. I usually use chrome acorn lug nuts for some added bling. On the 520 the studs on the spacer looked a little long for the acorn lug nuts I have. Plus I would be 3 pieces short. Need to get more. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bar Nuthin 2,843 #26559 Posted yesterday at 02:21 AM (edited) Decided that painting these wheel weights was worth the effort. Now I just need to pull the front wheels and get rid of that bright white that somebody painted them with.

Sure is nice to have spare parts tractors around especially as these things become more expensive and hard to find. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky-(Admin) 26,060 #26564 Posted 1 hour ago The 67 towed the 83 from the back shed up to the garage for a drive belt swap. Thought I was saving a few $$ using the belt I just removed from a junk C-81..but it ended up being a little shorter and she just doesn’t declutch like it should. Grinds the gears a bit. Crud!! I guess I’ll be using a brand new belt I picked up at this years WH Show. The idler pulley was shot on the 83 (GT-1600) so the C-81 did donate a nice smooth one so there’s that 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
