As usual - rather splendid work Richard!
-
-
Good pics Norm, shame I missed you!
-
late to the party, we've welded two of these successfully... there are all just tacked! presumably to break the fork instead of something else when you swing on it!
-
-
the more I see, the more I'm astounded! such awesome engineering!
-
wow - that is amazing work Richard!
-
Ewan doesn't get on here much like me - we are in so many groups and forums is impossible to keep up! He's currently in the process of building a 1984 range rover - almost from scratch as the titanic probably has less rust!!!!
-
quick video - it sounds good inside, but theres a lot of squeaks and rattles....
it sounds really good on the outside
-
-
late to the show - happy Birthday old boy!
-
Need to get the kids to film me
could do!
what width do you want Norm?
-
After building a few monster tractors - I got bored and went big...
6 litre, 6 cylinder, straight pipe and a turbo... 😁
-
Been a while since I updated things...
firstly new rubber!
after getting the wheels powder coated I stuck a new set of 6-12 on. I couldn’t find another Dunlop ag tyre.
Ewan fixed the hood... made a smart job, where it had been butchered
then this happened.
I made a three point for the back.
then this 😀
the IH club helped me get the original number plate. Registered in Carlisle in 1964.
I painted a plate in scale with the tractor. Not legal, but I’m hardly likely to drive it on the road...
Still need to sort a trip darn south to see Chris and pick up that engine. Then I can think about adding hydraulic lift 😁
in the meantime I’m planning a pto on the back...
-
they aren't that hard to fix, though that input shaft is the first thing you put in when you are re-assembling - so the last thing to come out
happy to guide you and tell you what bearing and seal you need if you fancy a go... I've just rebuilt one two months ago.
pulling the hubs is the hardest bit though... then a 9/16" spanner splits the case and it's easy after that.

-
I've one sandblasted, painted and new decals sitting here.
You can make me an offer... I'm in North Yorkshire.
-
Hey Doug, good to have you back - nice work!
Sorry to hear you've been having a rough time
-
if you are stuck removing them...
here is the easy way, though this one needed 6 tons and a lot of heat!
-
-
yours looks like mk3, we've done quite a few sets of 8hp 28"
Assume it has lights on the dash? - hard to tell from the pic...
-
I suspect hubs will be your first challenge, just popped one on a C-121, 5 mins of heat and 6 tons of pressure to budge it!
-
reading the brochure... Only 3 models on Mk2 . W8R, W8E and W11E - all 36" deck.
So when did 28 and 32" decks become options? Mk1 or Mk3?
