    cub throw-out

    I've never seen a carbon throwout bearing for the 154 LowBoy.I looked in the past,and looked again a couple of weeks ago,but couldn't find anybody who made one for that tractor.A couple of years ago I looked for any kind of throwout bearing for a 184,and wasn't finding one.The owner found one...

    cub throw-out

    I've owned a few,but have worked on a lot of them.Lots of chutches and driveshafts.They are easy to change the clutch in though.The only hard part of that is if the clutch brake pucks have to be changed.You have to slide the transmission flywheel ahead enough to replace them,and it is usually...

    Kohler 10HP K241 Pricing

    I have a 73 Wheelhorse with a 12 HP Kohler on it.It has been on this property since new.Never apart,and the original buyer that lived in front of me put an hour meter on it when he bought it new.When I tell people how many hours were on it when the meter quit they just call me a liar.I'd...

    Kohler 10HP K241 Pricing

    While there are dozens of combinations,a lot of them can be dealt with and adapted for different applications.Biggest to me has always been the crank configuration.A tapered crank engine on a generator isn't much good for anything else.Starter and stator charging system? Or,a starter generator...

    cub throw-out

    Is it the real ball bearing ,or the chunk of carbon style? While I didn't like the carbon block style from the first one I saw,I do have to say any I've replaced did have a lot of time on them.In the past few days I ran into a problem with a throwout bearing for a LowBoy 154.NOT my favorite...

    Cornhead grease/oil

    I use the cotton picker spindle grease from Tractor Supply in the steering boxes in my Model A Fords.I did have another Model A guy send me a page of specs and technical numbers and explanations telling me whay I shouldn't use it.I just told him it's wet,slippery,fits between the gears,and leaks...

    Shop lighting

    It appears that Batteries Plus is no longer selling the plug and play tubes.And,the ones I bought dozens of years ago are still the same price.When I started to convert all of mine I figured I would do a few at a time.But,I liked them so much I bought 70 of them and did all the buildings that...

    Shop lighting

    It won't take long to eat up any savings by feeding wasted juice to a ballast.I know plug and play was a little cheaper years ago,but now it looks to be the other way around.The last wire arounds I bought were about $3.cheaper than the plug and plays.I bought about 25 four foot tubes,figuring...

    Starter ID

    It's just missing the switch.As a rebuild it may or may not have come with one on It is a foot pedal starter,not a key switch or pushbutton starter.The switch for it fits a gazillion tractors.Got one sitting here to go on a 40/420 two cylinder JD.

    Shop lighting

    I converted my shop over to LED 12 years ago.Never looked back.I just used the fixtures to hold the tubes,and direct wired them.Will never,ever,go back to anything with a ballast again.They get hot,which means they are sucking juice.I bought the tubes from Batteries Plus,they are made by...

    Dust Control on Gravel Farm Road

    Years ago the town used to hire an oil company to oil the roads.The trucks were lettered up fancy on the tanks,Oil for dusty roads!! Had a picture of a truck with a dust cloud in front of it,and a flat black road behind it.I worked at one of their gas stations they owned back then,and got...

    DirectTV Gemeni Device

    While I've never looked seriously,there are a crapload of music stations on my free Roku.Scrolling through when I forst got it I saw a bunch of MTV stations,it was the first time I realized there were so many.I am the same way with satellite radio the way some are with their TV's.Don't matter...

    DirectTV Gemeni Device

    I get a lot of solicitations from cable,satellite,and streaming services.I like to study fine print,and have to actually use a magnifying glass to read it.Some of the sneakiness is almost horrifying.So far I'm not seeing anything to convince me to pay to watch a TV set.I do have a Roku that...

    Yikes a green Ford

    Interesting you should bring that up.On a farm here in town there was never anything but green tractors.In later years a couple of foreigners slipped in,(Ford and Farmall),but they painted them green so they would blend in.Some of the daughtersand grandaughters are quite talented artists,and one...

    trailer tires

    I don't think you can even buy tires marked,MH,and mobile home use only.Those can get you put out of service.The axles are not special mobile home axles,some are just the cheaper UTG axles.I have no idea how a law enforcement office could determine if the axle was ever on a mobile home.The ribs...
