Historic Horse 4 #1 Posted October 18, 2019 SO the frame cracked, had to retire her once and for all. Lots of good parts, plus a working rototiller attachment. Make an offer as needed for parts or take it all off my hands! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On another subject, do you own a welder? Those things do wonders on cracks! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill D 2,282 #3 Posted October 18, 2019 I have a good 417-8 frame if you want it. $20, you come and get it. The frame is the same. Bill 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 73,016 #4 Posted October 18, 2019 7 hours ago, Historic Horse said: frame cracked That's a well known problem with many horses. There's no need to retire that horse. A frame swap or repair will get it back to work for you. That's one of the more desirable models and easy enough to keep in your stable. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 60,383 #6 Posted October 18, 2019 Most frames crack at the point where the 3/4" round foot rest passes through the frame or at the transmission mounting plate. Either of these can be made better than new with very little effort. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
