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.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.

A little blasting, a little fixing, a little painting.

I think all that's left to blast are the front wheels, will do some painting tomorrow. A lot of it is put together and the rewire is started.

I don't have the auto linkage in yet because I ran out of NOS bushings. I have a hundred bushings coming in beginning of next week that fit all the automatic rods that go through the console piece. These bushings also fit the PTO rod, lift rod, brake rod, and most everything else on the tractor that takes the Wheel Horse # 7879 bushing. They are the new IGLIDE® M250 material and can be put in by hand. I can't see paying almost $14.00 each plus freight (ouch) for these from Toro or anywhere else so I sought out something better for about half the price. Will post them when they get here.

I got the bushings in today and they work great, I put up a separate post about them.
She is all rewired and more parts put on. Now that I have bushings it's back to work time.
