[digger]

That's the one thing I've never owned, but I magine your more than right on the 2nd gear thing, maybe even 3rd!

And to think, I was the one who used to drive them up and down the street for entertainment some hmm 6-7 years ago

Wicked Articulator, Kevin! Are the PTO's geared to same speed (like, one's a 1000rpm, other's 540, or one's RH, the other's left, or different shaft-spline types?

How much does it weigh?

What happened to the prancing-stallion logo?

Steve B-
NICE mowin' machine- go terrorize the field mice!

 

[kdunham]

Steve B.-That is a nice setup! Usually you see a rotted Haban on either a rotted or nice tractor or a nice Haban on a rotted tractor.It doesn't look like you have anything negative going on there!

Dave K.- With the counterweight,fluid filled rear tires(tires are 31x15.50x15) the loader and all is about 1,800 lbs.
I don't know where the stallion went,beats me....

The PTO's are the same size and turn in the same direction,directly in the middle and one on top, one on bottom. One turns at 540 or 900,the other turns in relation to wheel speed. An attachment that was available was a "powered trailer". The trailer had a gearbox that drove it's own wheels via the extra PTO if you wanted it to. Of course you could just tow it in "freewheel" also,shutting off your trailer PTO would accomplish this. An articulated 4WD with a power cart,kinda like driving a drunken worm.....

Hmmm... sounds like quite a rig. With that weight, and those tires, you should be able to manage about 1200lbs of drawbar pull. Cool!

Lets see.... Kevin "Michael Schumacher" Dunham.... Doesn't exactly roll of the tongue does it.... GREAT Find Kevin.... Needs some REALLY BRIGHT Red paint.... and finding Prancing Horse decals is no problem.... I like the Nickname too. Do a search on "HOLLYWOOD Motorsports" They have "Connections" to Marenello. And here I thought You bought a McCormick at first!

I guess y'all will have already noticed some changes by the time you read this.

Especially for those of you that don't come here "by the front door" (yeah, I mean you, Dave K2

), you might want to head to the Topics page and see what else is in store. Probably wouldn't be a bad idea for EVERYONE to head to the Topics page, I guess.

You'll note a couple of new topics, one for those of you that are welding, machining, painting, showing off your new lathe/compressor/whatever and otherwise doing things of a "constructive" nature.

Then there's a spot for off-topic stuff. I suppose that Kevin's Ferrari would be a better fit there at this point. You get the idea.

Both of these new topics use threaded conversations. Either start a new thread or go into a thread and post to it.

Also, the name of this topic has changed - note the conspicuous absence of the word "open". Anything goes no longer goes here.

Just <FONT COLOR="ff0000">I</FONT><FONT COLOR="000000">H</FONT> Cub Cadets.

More topics are on the way, stay tuned.

Oh, and for those of you who can't seem to figure out how to check a bunch of topics, try the Last 1|3|7 Days option on the menu bar.

You freaked me out big time!!! I thought that my book marks got all screwed up.

It's here it's cool!!

On topic,
It looks like Stinkies starting issues have been resolved, but I do not know how?!?!!?

 

[jegstad]

Well I put what I was ready to post about Kevin's Ferrai over in the Sandbox

. Might as well try this thread stuff out.

Ok need to update the old signiture. It was a litte too formal.

 

[sblunier]

Cool new features and look!!!

 

[bmcmeen]

Now that y'all have figured out signatures, y'all might wanna edit your full names

 

[till]

BTDT, I'm getting up to speed as fast as I can read.

 

[kortman]

Hi All. Yep, a neat, new look over here. And I see that uploading pictures is easier too (just like over on the "green" forum) as well as using clipart

And, I can use my username from "over there" as my signature

 

[sblunier]

...at Bryan's suggestion....

 

[wcompton]

Question-
Were the grilles on 71/102/122/123 painted silver or were they just plated?

 

[kmcconaughey]

Wyatt, plated.

Here's a pic of my recently acquired 1872.
