What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

[WHX?? 46,774]

Betting you know that the fronts are on backwards @BrianKoch

Just trying to be different or lack of 4WD doesn't matter!?!?

Still nice looking rig...

Did a two seater today thank you @Pullstart & took it for a love ❤️ ride. Maybe a cocktail cruise on it tonite to get her in the mood.

It was enny minny mighty moe on which tractor to put it on. This one just runs ssssooo sweet. Solid mounts on order now she's got a purpose. Was going to put a deck on her ...easier to sell... and send her down the road but not no more. 

Had to butch the legs off which I didn't want to do. Figured I could make it into a cool shop love sofa for the off season.  

Dibs on another one if yer heavy on them.

 

Well then I discovered this Kev... gum underneath and repaired corner... hey I want a refundIf these seats could talk...

AG tires on the steer axle of a 2WD tractor will steer better if mounted that way.

Never knew that EB but truth be told never cared for ags on the front of a . to each his his own tho. 

 Wouldn't be beyond it if a pair fell from the sky and had nothing better to do.

Some brands have arrows on the side walls indicating to mount them backwards if on a non driving wheel.

The BBT has em  on her Military Tribute Tractor, mounted regular ole fashioned way. Looks cool there. She says the grip is good. 

 

I have a set of 6/12 AGs on the front of my 1974 C160 Cinnamon Horse.  

I've tried them both forward and reverse facing.  

There's a HUGE difference in steering capability with them reverse mounted. 

But.   

That's a pretty heavy front end.

Some manure spreaders come with the tires mounted backwards since the ground drives the equipment instead of the pulling.  I had to explain that to a farmer wannbe when he made fun of the setup.

Getting this RJ ready for the Big Show in June!  This is one of three RJ’s I I will be bringing.   
 

This RJ was owned by a guy I would see at Florida Flywheelers every year.  Apparently, he had a problem finding a magneto for a 4 HP Kohler motor (original went under the flywheel).  He placed a 12 volt coil and a battery on it .  This thing starts first pull almost every time.   I placed the decals on yesterday and will change the gas line today.  
 

It is a good runner and the and the transmission shifts smooth.  I enjoy riding this RJ. 
 

Bringing my LTD-24. Wheel Horse dump cart also!

Not my 's but working on 's all the same. @WHX?? & I wet sanded the sheet metal for a club raffle tractor (68' Charger) as well as the sheet metal for Jim's 701. The raffle tractor received 3 coats of red paint today.

 

Tomorrow it will be time for Jim's 701 to receive 3 coats of red paint.

 

   With all the noted quality of the paint job being evident, I must say that the matrix of thingamabob doo dadders pipe thingers as a place to hang the tins from ......Just poetic.  As a poet who didn't know it, all I can say is my feet are Longfellows

It’s just good to know it was truly a school bus seat.  Second to the back seat, one of the elite cool kids butt pads.  It’s where pre-teens get to practice their cuss words, their spit wad accuracy and maybe even a kiss or a feel!

Most of that matrix is high enough that it stays in place. Some of it will be coming down today, as I will be putting the spray gun away for the rest of the summer. "Hopefully " I like to paint in cooler weather when there are no bugs to deal with.

Found a new seat for Clyde the C-195 at Tractor Supply the other day.  Best part was it was on the 'clearance' shelf - $40 off list price.  Steel shell black seat for $85.  

 

Just finished up drilling and tapping a couple of mount holes to make a 7 1/2 by 8 inch pattern to match the seat adjuster sliders.  Got it mounted on the tractor. Almost looks stock.

 

I know, I know, worthless without pictures.  I'll get them soon.

[D_Mac 8,223]

Got the head and carburetor gaskets delivered today for the free 310-8. Hopefully it will be running soon. If it's a good runner I might consider painting the hood and seat pan / rear fenders.

[Lee1977 6,217]

Pulled the engine off the 312-8.

Yep very unlikely... more likely frying pan & rolling pin action on it now...

Started cleaning out the magic parts shed today. Missus been all over me like a dirty diaper to finish the outside steel. What a freaking disaster. Anyone needs a hydro rear end come get.

Look what I found Randy @rjg854. My bad 

Wished you would at least let us pay you for 🚢! Pickett steam club thanks you. 

 

Gave my back a rest and inventoried SS hardware for this little project.

Ain't that always the way.  Order the part you want and THEN find the one you had put away, some place.
