Big Sale Has Started - UPDATED 07-31-25 (01 Apr 2025)

As some of you know my dad passed away 2 months ago today, on May 31, 2025. I posted it in the Members Only section when it happened. Thanks to all of you who have offered kind words on the forum, with phone calls, and visits in person during this time.

The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. I don't have the manpower, or the desire to do a big event like originally planned, I just need to sell a lot of parts that are taking up too much space here. I have been told and believe we are overloaded with Wheel Horse parts like no one has ever seen. Peeps have already been coming in from different parts of the country and buying a lot of stuff due to seeing the sale page, and seeing we are the only Wheel Horse only business in the USA that does things on the scale we do. The sale will continue for awhile until I free up some more space but you may not want to wait too long as things are being sold every day and there are limits to how many of certain parts will be sold.

As it says on the page it is still under construction and the page isn't finished yet. I've had a ton of calls for parts and the Big Sale Page may help answer some questions about what is here before peeps call. I hope that page is also clear that we DO NOT SHIP anything... This is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.

Press heavy metal + rod bender was created by Geno
The 1" rod I need to bend for a project won't fit in the iron worker at the welding shop so i made a rod and flat stock bender. One change from the beginning pics is I made some copies of the press top insert so they can be welded to whatever and adapted for the press to make it more accurate, and where it will hold itself in. This will do rod up to 2" and flat stock up to 6" wide. One side does rods and the other does flat stock. Made this mostly to bend heavier stuff my finger brake won't do. :thumb1

This is after the design change for the top angle to fit in the press.

Next up are some more adapters of different lengths to weld things to, and a steering wheel shaft press adapter. It gets dangerous sometimes with the bolt on the end of the press original knob lol. :jump1
