Yep, that was before I got the website up and fully running, kinda. LOL
It's still not done. ;-(

Collecting the warm airflow from over the cylinder head and piping it into the cab is really clever. I'd be curious as to the effectiveness when using an un-insulated tube. LOL..

Spring proper length is 8 1/2", Total length including the hook is 9 5/8" long.
1 1/2" wide.
1/4" thickness on the wire size.

Next question. My 122 parts tractor has a very nice grille housing, pedestal & hood. My 124 great running worker has major issues with those very same parts. You see where this is going.....right? They look like a perfect swap just waiting to happen. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks

Not even close. ;-(
The blade springs are 3/16" wire size and shorter than the spring assist.

Digger, my old blade springs are 1/4" & on a spring assist that I'm building I don't think that small difference in length will matter. That new trip spring is definitely lighter gauge. Haven't seen anything that shinny in a long time lol. Thanks again for the help.

Not sure about the wire size, but this style spring is shorter than the blade spring.

That's a Brinly spring assist, which is much shorter than the others.

Well, we had a snow from hell last Wednesday...and I got 11+ inches. Friday I finally got Bull out to just see how it does in the snow. It was still probably 8 inches because the temps have stayed low. The cub did fine until I approached the blueberry bushes. I got stuck and that's where Bull has been ever since. The snow is about all gone now so getting traction shouldn't be a problem. I don't know how you guys up north put up with that stuff for weeks/months on end.
Having 4 cats and 11 inches of snow makes for an interesting day or even several days. I was cleaning litter boxes left and right. It was like there was a fence around the front <font color="ff0000">•</font><font color="ff0000">•</font><font color="ff0000">•</font><font color="ff0000">•</font><font color="ff0000">•</font> when any of the guys would go outside. I ended up shoveling paths just so they could get around a little.
This is a path to one of their "outhouses".

LOL, Wayne made a FUNNY!
Stuck? Nope, LOL
Wayne, You have more snow there so far than we have had here in eastern Iowa ALL WINTER!!
Charlie (and all)-
You have to keep in mind I live in central North Carolina. Our normal temps this time of the year are around 50* for the high and around freezing for our lows. We recently had a streak of over 20 days not getting above freezing. That was a couple of weeks before the snow came. It was cold all week and the snow came last Wednesday as I mentioned before. It got down into the teens several nights and finally broke starting on Friday. It's now full sunshine and 66* and suppose to be that way for the next few days.
All cub work has come to a halt around here. I got Bull out just to see what it would do and was surprised even with turfs and fat fronts. However the fat fronts are what almost put me going through the blueberries. They can make pretty good sleds.
The cats were the biggest issue I had to deal with. They were either sleeping or bouncing off the walls while running through the house.
I do have a K241 in my back room to go through. It was rebuilt a few years back and hasn't been tested yet. I just want to make sure the valves, head gasket, and a few other things are up for the test. It will go in my 109 this spring (and is the proper engine which should mean a clean, easy swap).
And Charlie, why the red dots in place of the word
describing the flat surface right outside my front door???

Eric is OK, that scumbag wife of his is a real piece of work!
