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.

I always love watching someone else's projects to see how they fix the problems. I always learn something I can use on a future tractor.
Yea always like to see solutions and fixes.

if you all remember it had a destroyed mounting plate
well this is the reworked redesign
the frame rails on the tractor are 2 x2 x 1/4 angle
with that in mind i made up brackets out of the same stock
and cropped them in at a 90* return and added a gusset on the side
along with a spreader at its base.
a full more detailed write will follow with measurements.
this makes the last batch of stuff to get under primer
with that being said, when i did the front axle i had just put fresh black beauty in the blaster
and it came out shining making me think CHROME
has anyone ever seen the front end chromed?
but getting back to real life
i was going to get the trans opened up, cleaned up and such today
this is what i started with
but this next picture is what i ended up with today
the pin is out and i will leave it at that.
sneak peak at whats next
