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.

His family had a Wheel Horse dealership for over 40 years so it will be real nice to talk about parts and fixes with someone that knowledgeable. It got started on this afternoon so here it is.

I also press out the outer pieces a lot so I'm used to it, but if anyone is doing this for the first time it's a tough thing to do even for me and with a special tool and receiver I made for the press. I made a press receiver on the lathe years ago that was bored for a pin to go into, and the 3/4" piece in the press for this has been turned down and tapered on the end so it doesn't bind up. There's not a lot of lip to put on the 1/2" blocks and still press the pin out so it's a careful operation to do. I don't like heating things unless it's a total last resort as it weakens and warps things.
The main thing I keep in mind other than safety is saving parts that aren't made anymore.

There was more cutting to do to save the throttle cable and clip, the exhaust will have to be cut off later, and the generator shaft has been hitting the belt guard but that will all get addressed later.

Biggest problem was figuring out a way to get these chucked up with some room to work, after that resurfacing was easy. The only way I could see to knurl these was with a tool I had that I never used before. It was one of those "that's a cool tool, I could prob use it some day" purchases, and today was the day. The standard knurling tools just push on something from the side but the screw wasn't chucked up good enough for that.
It's not exactly like the original but after they are done, cleaned up, blasted and painted they will look and function a lot better than the way they were.
