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.

Puller Tip Improvement was created by Geno
For many years the tips on the pullers get replaced over and over.  These little pot metal or whatever these are made of split when you really put some force on them.  I had a puller out end of last week to take a Kohler engine apart and lost another one trying to get the flywheel off.  Granted it was put on with an impact and way way too tight but the tip still should have taken it.  The material is too weak and way too thin.  I left the puller out last week to remind me to make a lifetime tip today...

I just took a scrap piece of 1" steel rod, turned the ends in the lathe, then drilled a hole in one end for the puller bolt.  It still has 1" of steel at the bottom after the hole was drilled so I don't expect it to ever split or break no matter what.  I've had the puller for about 30 years and it's a Made in USA Cal-van so I think it will last just fine.  Just something I thought I would pass on for peeps having the same problem and wanted a permanent solution.
