Terry,

I spent 1/2 of my week about 3 miles west of that arch, just south of Forest Park near the Science Center.....

 

[mgault]

Steve/Terry - you guys should have told me you were coming to St. Louis, email mail me next time.

Wasn't gonna post any pics till it's done but I'm bored again and it's pretty slow tonight. I figured, why let those moldy tractors be the only ones with HD lookin air cleaners!

Bren - Have you got the rain cap ? That's not going to look to bad after it's painted. It'll take some getting use to seeing a yellar canister though. Good place to hide the

bottle

. I don't know if I kept my canister or sold it on greedbay. I know I've still got the cap though hanging on a nail.

Art - Who told ya ?

Ken, just painted it last night, between the rain showers. It's almost gonna hurt to open the bail to fill it with oil. Scratch that shiny new paint

The cap is mia, which looks to be the norm around here. Knocked off by tree branches or kids.

Isn't that what that brass nut on the intake tube is for?

It says NOS Fogger to me

Air cleaner you say...would work a lot better if connected to the carburator intake and not next to exhaust. And I thought it was an extra quiet muffler...oh well.

 

[bbrigham]

Allen, That pic is just mock up. It will be plumbed to the carb and the exhaust will be routed to the other side. Tryin to find a local shop that does mandral bending, so far no luck. May have to order the pipe pieces through Bassani. They do have very good prices on mandral bent 180s.

Brendan, you putting that on just so it "looks slick" or you gonna run it in the next Baja races in S. Calif.?

I was going through some NOS boxes today and found some NF seat Bumpers. Rather cool IMHO.

 

[bbranstetter]

Charlie,

How is it that you always have the coolest stuff?

Hey, do ya think it's too early to start mounting the cab on the tractor yet? Is it very complicated, never seen the instructions on a soft cab, hope they come in the box.

 

[digger]

Brian B.
I hunt for it, LOL

Mines already on and the snow crew is in the garage all lined up ready to go.

What kind of soft cab?

 

[rneubauer]

bought a creeper from a 128 today at the local garden tractor junkyard. Anyone got a set of installation instructions for installing into a 582?
Anything I should remember to grab off of the 128 that I will need that will not be obvious?

 

[digger]

Rob N.
Just keep everything attached to the creeper and you'll be good to go.

But then again, you'd be better off just keepin the 128 and throwin the 582 away.

Got a new toy today

 

[rvondohlen]

Just bought a great Cub Cadet from the original owner; alas, no paperwork or manuals.
The ID tag on gearbox is 252777.
The engine tag is 46700D. The previous owner had noted that the engine is a K241A...
Any ideas? -Thanks!-
