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 like to put the birthing of new tools or mods in the restoration topic of the tractor that inspired it so this one is from Jeremy's ride. I finished making a full kit for this rearend this morning. The turned down portions that go inside the case are also turned back 3/16" which is where the bearing should sit. These can also be used when open bearings are pressed in to get the correct setback, or recess the seal a little if need be. I also made a piece that fit a tiny bit loose to put in where the rear hitch pin goes through. The shifter hole just gets a nylon hole plug to keep paint out of there.
There are a few other pieces that will have to be made for other transmissions but at least this is a good start. I'll still put this in the home made tool section soon in case others want to make something like this.
Tomorrow is start putting more of this one together, it will be fun time for sure.

It's all on the tractor and looks really nice. I put a close up of the pins we use for the slot attachments, they have a snap ball in them so they don't bounce out or get lost if nothing is in the slot and fit perfect. I have a lot of pics of the progress so I'll put them all up in 2 posts.

If you see a thick head yellow zinc bolt they are all grade 9, yellow zinc washers are grade 8, everything else is grade 5. I never use cheap stuff...

Next up was the wiring got started on. The point set wire was looking pretty rough so it got replaced. I haven't shown any pics from the heat/de-soldering air gun in use here yet, I use it mostly for heat shrink. I can adjust air speed and temp from 200 - 896 degrees. It's always already out, ready to go, and a lot quicker than getting out the big heat gun which is way to hot for this little stuff anyway.
Got a good start on it today and it's also the first tractor to get the new copper braided grounds we have now. They are really nice and add to the personality and color type stuff I like to do on tractors lol.

Finished up most of the wiring today, made the last battery cable to the generator, put the fuel tank on for a test fit and see where the ammeter wires would end up. Put oil in the engine and closed it up, it's now ready to run minus fuel. Will wrap up the wiring tomorrow morning, the original insulator on the start switch looks pretty good but gonna make a new insulator in the morning to go under the factory one just in case.
Other than that a few other little things are done but it's Monday and everyone knows how crazy Mondays are around here...
