You guys are funny with your comments about the large bearing in the back of my 169 photo. That came from the front wheel of a belly-scraper, and makes a neat door-stop. I notice it's starting to rust, so maybe I should hit it with the wire-wheel and clear coat it to keep it shiney. I can't imagine what that would cost to replace!

You are correct, that is a ported hydro-pump and a later fine-spline rear end from a yellow and white 782 on that wheeled cart in the background. Also on the cart is the frame from a 147, the sheet-metal from a 123, a hyd-steering valve, and a super-steer front axle. "Someday" I'll be combining all of that and a low-hour 14hp Kohler that's sitting on the shelf into the coolest loader tractor you ever did see!

OK, I give up. Since we know where #518 is at, then what is this one? [ATTACH=full]77775[/ATTACH]
